An excellent thought!

Would you mind sharing how you got the gold lettering on the mahogany?
Thank you very much. I used a tool that is like a heat transfer iron to get the lettering on the wood, then I used a simple woodburner (like you get at Michael's) to outline the letters, and then I painted the gold on with leaf that I also got at Michael's. I had to outline the letters because the gold on the mahogany blended in too much.
