3 [3] [4] [5] Are you looking for the perfect nightstand or bedside table to compliment your Farmhouse Bed? Page 3 of 24

4 Our Modern Farmhouse bed (free plans available here) [6] is the focal point of our bedroom, and I wanted nightstands to compliment it - not compete with it, or match so perfectly they look like part of the bed. Page 4 of 24

5 So I designed this bedside table. It is a perfect sidekick to our modern farmhouse bed - both in style and use. Page 5 of 24

6 I love the big roomy drawer, spacious top, and open bottom shelf. This modern style nightstand is also just the right size to use as an end table or side table in your living room. I had alot of scrap plywood pieces that I burned up on this project - so Page 6 of 24

7 spent about $25 building it. But if you buy all new materials - plan on about $50 a nightstand - what a bargain for such a beautiful simple piece. And if you are building two - double the savings! The free plans are below - do share if you build, we love seeing your projects!

First cut a strip 48" long x 16-1/2" wide. Cut a second strip 48" long x 7-1/4" wide. Cut using either a table saw or a circular saw. If using a circular saw, it is highly recommended to use a guide or track. Once the long strips are cut, cross cut the pieces to the right size. Page 14 of 24

15 [33] For all 2x2 to 2x2 joints, use a single 1-1/2" pocket hole and 2-1/2" pocket hole screw, with glue. Build two of the frames shown in diagram above. Page 15 of 24

18 [36] Set circular saw blade depth to about 1/8". Make false cuts 1-1/2" up from bottom edge of 3/4" plywood with circular saw to look like 2x2. Drill 3/4" pocket holes on sides and top of plywood pieces on inside. Attach inside the 2x2 side frame flush to outside with 1-1/4" pocket hole screws. Repeat for back (optional for bedside table).

19 [37] Test fit of top and shelf inside frame. Adjust size if necessary. Drill 3/4" pocket holes along all four edges of top and shelf. Attach inside 2x2 frame with 1-1/4" pocket hole screws. Page 19 of 24

20 [38] Build drawer box with 3/4" pocket holes and 1-1/4" pocket holes screws. Attach drawer bottom with 3/4" brad nails and glue, making sure drawer box is square. Install drawer in cabinet, attaching drawer slides to the 2x2 framing. Page 20 of 24
