Mini Farmhouse Bedside Tables

I made two of these bedside tables for our master bedroom and I LOVE how they turned out. Really like the white with my red mahogany headboard. These weren't too difficult to build. The only problem I ran into was trying to fit my drill in some of the tight spaces to get some of the screws in. I had to do a few of them by hand with a small screwdriver. I mostly used leftover scraps to build them. The tops are made of several boards kreg jigged together rather than one big piece. I was a little nervous about the drawer because I have never made one before, but it wasn't as bad as I thought and it came out just about perfect! yay.

Love this nightstand, it's the perfect size, not too big or too small. Your white finish looks great, and the drawer looks perfectly even. Great job!

Awesome job with your drawer! I just finish build my mini table now and getting ready to cut up another woods for the drawer part, what size is your front drawer? Is it 11 1/4? What about the length? I want to make sure I measure it right before I cut em soon.

Sorry, I just saw your questions! Yes the drawer front is 11 1/4 wide, and the length of the drawer is 11 1/2. I just followed Ana's cut list exactly for the mini farmhouse bedside table. Since you already have the table built you can measure the opening for the drawer to make sure it will fit.
