Modern Chest of Drawers & Nightstand
A 5-drawer chest of drawers and a 2-drawer nightstand featuring clean lines and modern styling. Something unique about this build is the frame and panel construction. Most chests of drawers are traditionally made with solid panel sides/tops, but our design incorporates a beautiful frame and panel design which presents a number of challenges to the builder. Fortunately, it's incredibly easy to do once you know the process and I'll walk you through every single step!

About the Course
After building the Modern Platform Bed, many folks requested a chest of drawers and nightstand to complete the set and that’s exactly what this is: a 5-drawer chest of drawers and a 2-drawer nightstand featuring clean lines and modern styling.
We will provide plans for both the Chest of Drawers and the Nightstand but the videos will focus primarily on the Chest of Drawers. The projects were designed to incorporate the same joinery, materials, and methods so if you know how to build one you also know how to build the other.
While the version I build will incorporate Bubinga and Wenge woods, you should feel free to use any species that suits your tastes and budget.
