Hello Marianne.

Do you think you could give me the link to these boards @ Lowes? I cannot wait to make these and I hope to get started this weekend.

Thanks so much!!

In reply to Rebecca. Hi Rebecca, I have lots of these drawers around the house, and I don't find that they stick too much. My bigger issue is pulling them all the way out because I don't have the stops on all of them. With the stops installed, they work well. But I wouldn't want to put anything really heavy in them. Hope this helps!

Hello, I am looking at doing something very similar for our nightstands. How have you found opening and closing the drawers? In the reviews of the Rast online, the biggest complaint seems to be that the drawers get stuck. Do you find that as well?
Thank you!

In reply to Mary. Hi Mary! You are not missing something. I did glue the pieces on the side. I then spackled the seam so that it would look like one piece. Hope this helps. Good luck with your project and have fun!

Hi! Not sure if you will see this, but we were looking to redo our IKEA Rasts just like this! Would you be able to share how you attached the trim on the end panels? You had noted that they were glued to the end panels, but it only looks like one piece of wood from the front view of the nightstand vs two overlapping. Am I missing something? Thank you in advance!

In reply to Jenn. Hi Jenn, Unfortunately, I don't have a link to those knobs. I bought them at TJ Maxx a few years ago. I have seen very similar knobs at Hobby Lobby. You may want to check them out!

Hi can you tell me where you got your knobs and what type you ordered as well. Thanks!
