The first tip comes from a tip on Facebook that's apparently great for getting rid of minor scratches on wood furniture and who doesn't have at least one piece with scratches?  In my house, I can say that every piece of furniture is riddled with scratches so I'll be getting busy with these easy methods of sprucing up my dining chairs and dressers.

For minor scratches, all you need is Vinegar (either white or apple cider) and Canola Oil. Mix 3/4 cup of oil with 1/4 cup vinegar. Rub the mixture into your scratched up wood in the direction of the scratch and use a lint free cloth to do it.  You don't need to wipe it off; the wood just soaks it in and the scratches disappear.

According to DIY, If the scratches are deeper and the wood is exposed you can try rubbing the meat of a walnut into the scratch.  You can also color in the scratch using tea bags, coffee grounds, iodine, wax crayons, or an eyebrow pencil.

Below, you can check out a how to video on using a walnut or other nuts to get rid of unsightly wood scratches.
