I am wanting to start building a pair of nightstands and are looking for ideas and different designs. Also, if any one has any plans they would like to share I would appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

Here are several that I've made:

I believe I have dimensioned cad drawings for these, but my drawings don't show joint details.

Lee,
Thanks for sharing first of all. I really like the first set of stands(not that I dislike the others). That is close to what I am looking for.

Made a couple of these last year. Churly Cherry, film finish. Fun project, making the matching dresser now. Plans are available.

I just did some from the Wood magazine two months ago. Pretty simple, two inset drawers and taper legs.

If I get time tonight I will post some pics.

Wow, thanks everyone. I hope the one I build looks as good as all of these. Thanks again.

Hi Matt,

Attached is a nightstand drawn out in Sketchup. This is the unfinished pic I have.

I couldn't edit my post to add this so here is a new one.

Simple and easy and it works with the mission bed and hamper pretty well.

Slightly modified from a recent Wood magazine article.
