Bedside cabinets!
Apparently here in our town people never sell theirs so they get premium prices,you know how I feel about paying those...
I found this at my local op shop hiding behind the worlds largest wardrobe,standing on one end and covered in junk.
$40 including an extra set of legs from out the back.
I cut out the middle drawer and top then put all the legs on,cut them to length and painted.
The handles had a horrible faux copper finish but a scrub with wire wool found underneath...wait for it...real copper,go figure:)
Here they are along with my repainted headboard. I also made a shadow box for Chrissie from the leftover drawer.
wow! if you can't find what you need, change what you have!

You could always use the drawer front w/ handle also. Make a shallow box/shelf and put the handle piece on the front so you can lift for storage of items to switch out for different little decorating items.

Awesome job! What a cool idea, using the sides of a desk! With the feet on it, it just looks like it was made to be a night table! Looks fantastic.
