Oh, and do you see that shiplap back there? Yesssss, I do!!! I have wanted shiplap for the longest time but really didn’t know where to put it, but when we moved into this house it had the perfect walls for some faux shiplap!! Lol!! I will do a post on it shortly and you can see the before and after and all that fun stuff!! Back to today’s post…this amazing DIY sideboard!! I just LOVE the white and wood combo ever since Rachel from Shades of Blue Interiors built this fantastic beauty, I just knew I needed a white and wood piece!! It turned out better than I imagined!!

I, of course, use my Kreg Jig on a daily basis so I can’t pass up an opportunity to work with Kreg Tool which is Kreg’s new DIY website where you can find the latest free plans from all your favorite DIY bloggers and anyone who has built a piece of furniture and would like to share the plans!!

If you aren’t done drooling over it just yet, let me give you a few more pieces of eye candy! You’re welcome!! Lol!!

Gathering Supplies to Build this DIY Sideboard

This build was one of the easiest I have done!! It is just a box with some cute feet to dress it up and some patterned doors to make it stand out!! The hardest part was the pattern on the doors and after the first door, you know what you are doing and it goes really fast!!

The total cost to build this DIY sideboard came in right around $225 which is not bad considering the cheapest I have seen sideboards are at Walmart, they are all particle board with no real wood for that cost! And if you happen to find one made of wood, it seems it is always a couple thousand dollars!

Update: After the crazy lumber price increase of 2021 and 2022, the current price to build this DIY sideboard is around 400 bucks which makes me very angry but it is still cheaper than anything you can but really since EVERYTHING has gone up in price! 😬
