I wanted to build something that i could sell for a decent profit. i figured kid's furniture would be the best option because it can be made out of cheap plywood, doesn't need to match the decor and can just be painted a bright color, and it doesn't have to be the best craftsmanship.

i designed them myself using sketchup. yes they are crooked. they're supposed to be crooked. that's what makes them cool. (and hopefully more expensive.) pretty easy to build once i got all the dimensions dialled in. they're heavy, but solid.

dresser is a standard kid's dresser size. approx 46" wide, 16" deep, and 30" tall. mirror frame is 38" high, 28" wide. nightstands are around 2' tall, 14.5 deep. with one being 18" wide and the other 13" wide.

i used 5/8" mdf. with the drawers and drawer fronts made out of 1/2" mdf. cheap drawer slides. mirror is just a cheap one from home depot that i built the frame around.

mirror is turned backwards in the pics because i didn't pretty myself up. and new account because the pics will make me doxxable, but i still wanted to show you guys.

If you don't want to go on Facebook (wouldn't blame you), you could find a proxy. Ideally someone local who has several kids of various ages that is active in the community, sports, school, etc. That could give you a lot of local contacts.

Really nice piece by the way. I recently converted a set of draws into lego theme for my son. With the draw faces having scale lego studs on them. Looked cool. Far too much work to do for profit unless I created a better way of cutting out and finishing 120 wooden circles.
