No problem. You might want to consider sealing the wood after you bake it. Will help prevent any rot.

You let it sit in your house to season it. Don't do it if you don't care about the wood but it does help. I leave anything from outside in the house for no less than 3 months myself just to get the moisture content out and reduce the pathogens that are growing on the wood. It's an extra step of caution and helps create more sturdy and longer lasting wood than baking alone.
Like I said however, don't do it if you think it is a dumb idea.

Ahhh I Forgot about seasoning. I use drift wood myself so it's usually good to go after a bake and sand.

It is not a dumb idea, I just didn’t understand at first. Lol

Seconding the sealing. Just make sure the sealant you use is non toxic/low voc, water-based (never oil based)and at least water resistant. Water proof is of course better if you can find it.
