Very
fragile veneers can be stored in a closed trash bag (or other moisture
barrier) and stored laying flat. I keep some of my best veneers like
this under my bed, but don't tell anyone!J Other veneers can be pressed between two pieces of MDF or flake board, and leaned against the wall. If you store your veneers in the basement, be sure to put a block of wood underneath just in case your basement ever gets a small flood. Veneers stored in damp environments are subject to patches of mold. To prevent this from occurring, use a dehumidifier in the area where the veneers are kept. And should a patch of mold form, go to your local hardware store and purchase some oxalic acid (wood bleach). Follow the directions on the container. It will probably cause darker veneers like walnut to lighten up a bit, but the color does return.
