    mission nightstand completed

    am i glad to have finally finished this nightstand! ever get one of those, not too big projects, but for some reason you just can't seem to get it done? this was one of those - i think i started this about 3 or 4 months ago! anyway - the plan is from woodonline. it is made from white ash and finished with minwax golden oak stain and polyurethane. here's a pic:

      I've really likes all of the pieces that are in that set.

      I've been meaning to make that nightstand for awhile now.

      You're looks great

        Rick,

        That's really lovely. I thought it was Oak.

        I'm glad you didn't say Mission Accomplished.

                    just kidding, of course!! i actually built the dresser before the nightstand - in a lot less time too! strange! although, the loml has mentioned she would like a dresser - with a mirror, so .........!

                    thanks to everyone for your nice comments!

                        After you finsh the next dresser, you do realize your wife will hate mission furniture, and want some chippendale furniture to replace it.

                        I still like it, though.
