I used the "Reclaimed Wood Look" bedside table plans but altered them to make it taller to go with our bed and to make them less wide and long. The finished product has top dimensions of 14 1/2" by 14 1/2" to fit in our small room. I also removed the top drawer to make a bookshelf. The first table took about 4 hours to build and sand and the second one went a lot quicker. I stained each with one coat of Minwax Dark Walnut and sealed with 3 light coats of polyacrylic. The pulls are from Lee Valley.
