- If you want to deepen your knowledge about natural wood treatments like Linseed Oil and Pine Tar, this is the video for you. Natalie Yon-Eriksson, owner of @Earthandflaxstudio shares a lifetime of practical knowledge about natural methods for treating wood, particularly exterior carpentry.
This is a long video - treat it like continued education. We entered with very little experience with linseed oil. We really didn't know what pine tar was. We learned more about exterior carpentry filming this video than we could have imagined.
We broke everything up into chapters for you to reference as needed. There's also a couple links to Natalies website and store. If you have any questions about linseed oil or pine tar, drop us some questions in the comments.

Great content! I’d like to give this combination a try. Thanks for sharing. Just an fyi: Natalie’s company site is impossible to browse on mobile devices
Appreciate the kind words. We’ll let her know next time we see her!
Man I really wanted to support Earth & Flax. But $400 shipping to Montana for a few gallons is INSANE.
Yea, that is a bummer. We’re spoiled by having them so close. I’d imagine there’s other vendors closer to you!
Buy any natural pine tar, linseed oil and turpentine. Mix 1/3 ratio. Paint on any wood on sunny and warm days. Easy peasy.
is the heating of the pine tar/oil mix necessary? I see it in the application instructions but you didn't do that.. I'm planning to pine tar/oil our cedar siding for a new build but it I don't need to heat it up, that will make less prepping.. thanks for any info you can provide.
Not actually sure. The Earth + Flax website has a ton of tutorials! Let us know what you find?
How many coats of of this combination product should you use? just 1? should you let the first dry and then go over again?
sorry for the delay. we did two initially, I think we probably should have done 4. the wood was thirsty and we're going to have to reapply more coats this season
Does it have to be Raw Linseed Oil or can I use Boiled Linseed oil?
Check out this link. Quick summary, raw is the most natural. Boiled has a bunch of additives!

I really really enjoy them good folks who talk and talk and talk,,, lol... I think about an old school carpenter and how long it would have taken to talk about protecting wood, lol... OMG. It's,,, revenge of the nerds
Lol we appreciate you watching!
