The side-pieces for the other bed ([Fig. 136]) are cut out with the same pattern ([Fig. 126]). Make the head-and foot-pieces three by four and one-half inches, cutting a piece two by an inch and one-quarter out of the top of each as shown in the drawing ([Fig. 136]), and using the pattern of the other bed for cutting the curve in the bottom edge. Nail the pieces together in their proper places, after which cut some slats and fasten them in the bottom.
Fig. 137.—A Dresser.
The Dresser ([Fig. 137]) is made somewhat similar to the side-board. Cut the sides by the same pattern ([Fig. 122]) and fasten them to the edges of the back-piece, which should be six and one-half inches high by three inches wide. Cut shelf A three by one and one-quarter inches, B and C three by one and one-eighth, D three by one and three-sixteenths, and E and F one-half by one and one-quarter inches. Fasten shelf A between the sides at line No. 24 ([see Fig. 122]), B at line No. 23, C at line No. 22, D at line No. 21, and notch the ends of E and F to fit over the side-pieces at line No. 20.
Drawers to fit the lower shelves of the dresser may be made out of small strips of cigar-boxes or pieces of cardboard, glued together. A small mirror fastened in the position shown in the drawing will complete the work upon this piece of furniture.
Fig. 138.—A Wash-stand.
A Wash-stand can be made for the bath-room and each of the bedrooms similar to [Fig. 138]. The sides for this should be five inches high by an inch and one-quarter wide, and the shelves one by three inches. Fasten the lower shelf three-quarters of an inch above the base, and the top shelf at a height of two and one-half inches. When the stand has been put together, fit a round stick, about an eighth of an inch in diameter, in holes made in the sides with a (see [illustration]). This forms the towel-rack. Hang a small drapery over the lower portion of the stand.
