Unless you count the brushed nickel drawer handles...stands about 43" tall, 18" deep, 26" wide...
Corner posts were 2 x 4s cut down to 4/4 x 3" then a few other cuts were made. Top two drawers used 1 x 6 boards ( #3 Pine) the others used 1 x8s

Someday, I might get the hang of dovetailing drawers..:rolleyes:

steven, it looks nicely constructed and homey. I love the honey color. What did you use ?

Looks good. I like the panels on the sides. I am also curious about the finish. it looks really warm.

Mainly a Minwax stain called "Puritan Pine" with the second coat of stain having a drizzle of dark Walnut stain mixed in.....then the poly over that...
