I have noticed that hiding nail holes ,scratches and cracks in woodwork is sort of an art it takes real patience and dedication to take time to do it successfully the matching of colors getting it into place blending and then covering with top finish.

Covering hail holes is much easier if you drive the nail through a piece of masking tape and apply the putty through the hole in the tape. Let dry, remove the tap,e and then you only have a spot the size of the nail hole to address rather than the putty that get smeared into the surrounding grain.
