Blanket Chest

This is a built-in blanket chest with I put in an alcove that was in my upstairs hall.  It was a small difficult space (3x5 1/2') that nothing seem to fit very well in.  So I built this chest, to hold blankets and such, and also put 2 drawers underneath to store some of my wife's quilting material.

The chest has a plywood frame, and pine is used on everything else.  It has a face frame on the front, with raised panels, and matches the trim and styling on the awning window above it.

 

  

I found it difficult to get good pictures of this because it was such a tight space, but hopefully, this will give you the idea.
