I also love the hardness of wood but love the color and feel of linen. I use Gamblin PVA size to adhere the linen to the wood surface. Just lay the linen on the wood and apply the PVA with a large brush. Saturate well and make sure to thoroughly smooth the linen, then allow to dry. The linen can be painted on as is without a primer (as confirmed by Gamblin) if you love the color as I do.
