The Christmas Tree Stump Chain

Not much to look at but I like it a lot. Every year I must cut a slice off the trunk of the Christmas tree before I put it up so it'll suck water better. I save the stumps and mark them with the year and put them on a chain. I have stumps going back to 1984...

Do you do anything to "preserve" the saved trunk slices? Varnish or anything?

Yes. Scott's Liquid Gold or just lemon oil.
