Hey friends, I'm back with....another piece to add to that matching bedroom set I keep thinking I'm finished with.
This video was sponsored by my friends at Kreg Tool! Check out Kreg's new line up of tools at KregTool.com
It's been almost two years since I shared the first piece to this set--the storage bed. After that, I shared the nightstand and the 6 drawer dresser.
Then a year or so passed and I decided to add a 9 drawer dresser to (what I thought) wrap this up. Funny thing, though. I'm back another year later to add another piece. Will this be the final one? I'd like to say yes, but at this point, who knows!
Either way, I'm excited to show you how I built a matching tall dresser for my favorite bedroom furniture collection. This piece maximizes storage space with a minimal footprint.
