Hi r/beginnerwoodworking ! Long time no post, but I think I finally made something worthy of a post. This is my first time building indoor furniture. Most of the work I've done has been pretty rough outdoor builds. My wife and I are super excited for these! I followed Shara's build from Woodshop Diaries. Here is the link for her video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U0IOdO3WHew I'm still a beginner, but slowly getting better! I mainly struggled with the drawer because this is my first time making one and the ball bearing slides didn't really line up. I think the main problem is I can't cut plywood very straight and every little misalignment added up to the drawer not fitting very well. We still love them and they're functional. Hopefully others building this in the future will find this post helpful. Thanks for reading! Here is the link of me building it part 1 and part 2. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MUoznjycVaM&t=271s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UxytngqzcxU&t=3s Sincerely, A Dentist Does Home Improvement More on reddit.com

I honestly kind of like it without drawers. If you must I would think a flush front of a lighter wood (poplar maybe?) would be nice Edit something like this maybe? More on reddit.com

Patience. Look on Facebook marketplace every day. Don’t search specifically for “mcm nightstand” but just “nightstand”. Check estate sales. Pop in thrift stores and do a lap around the furniture section as often as you can. It took me probably three months of searching to find a pair of mcm nightstands I loved, you’ll find some too!
