**Olive Oil and Vinegar**: Mix equal parts of olive oil and vinegar, apply it to the scratch with a soft cloth, and buff it out. It can help blend the scratch with the surrounding wood.

**Walnut or Almond**: Rub a walnut or almond over the scratch. The natural oils can fill in the scratch and darken it, making it less noticeable.

**Toothpaste**: Use a small amount of non-gel toothpaste on a soft cloth and gently rub it into the scratch. Wipe it clean afterward. It can help smooth out minor scratches.

**Varnish**: If the scratch is deep, you might need to apply a bit of matching varnish. Just be careful and use a fine brush to fill in the scratch.

**Crayon or Marker**: Use a crayon or permanent marker that matches the wood color. Just color over the scratch, and it can help disguise it.
