X Fran nightstand
Can you please post how you did this. I'm going to make my first project this weekend and I would like it to be this. I know it's based off the simple nightstand but can you give the details on the alters especially how to make the x? Thank you

Did she ever post her plans?
Did she ever post her plans? If so, I can't find them! I prefer this design to Ana White's original, but I don't trust myself enough to try and wing it and make it look like hers. Did you end up making something similar?

thank you
Thanks guy's! :0) The only modification from the original nightstand was adding the x. I do my x's different from the the other rustic x way. I will take some pics of how I do it today.

Question about design
Your nightstands are beautiful and I am working on creating my own! Did you keep with the original plans and use the 1x2 and 1x3's for the legs? Yours look thinner. Did you use 1x2's for the X sides?

I didn't build this, but...
I didn't build this, but I feel pretty confident in telling you that the legs/x's are 2x2s.
