It's (K)not Wood

12-05fauxbois01.jpgHow much wood would a woodchuck chuck if the wood wasn't really wood? Ask Emilyn Eto and Jonathan Lo, the self-proclaimed "woodgrain nuts" who run the blog, It's (K)not Wood, a site dedicated to all things "faux bois," or fake wood.

i found this blog a bit ago, and it's great.

partially inspired me to woodgrain my brother in law's xbox 360. I had a roll of woof contact paper, i bought it for a different project, and when he was visiting decided to do a custom overlay on the front. It looked great, and it was still on when I say him over T-Day. He said a lot of his friends had asked about it. Since then i did a quick wrap on my guitar hero guitar, and whatever else around here need a little wood.

I'm really puzzled by the popularity of faux bois on this site, and then the amount of people who recommend painting over the real thing. Ohh well, I suppose it's not necessarily the same people making the same suggestions.
