Hey friends! Im back with PART 2 of the matching guest bedroom furniture series today this time, sharing how to build the matching nightstand!
If you caught it a few videos ago, Im furnishing our (what used to be) empty guest bedroom in our new home with a matching set of bedroom furniture.
I already shared how I built a bed frame with arched headboard here:
https://www.woodshopdiaries.com/how-to-build-a-bed-curved-head-board/
So it makes sense to tackle these bedside tables next. But, be sure to subscribe and stay tuned because Ill be sharing AT LEAST one more piece in this matching set soon!
I hope you enjoy watching this piece come together...and seeing some bloopers and mistakes along the way.
