These nightstands were made for the customer's children. To facilitate this, the bottom shelves are chute-like to keep books from falling out. The base and body of the nightstand is made from reclaimed pine and the top is made from reclaimed maple. The customer ultimately decided to have the drawer painted white as well. The final project photo was lost, but the screw holes inside were all filled in before the project was shipped. Typically 4 weeks for one night-stand and 6 weeks for two. Price estimate below is for one nightstand.

Cooper's Custom Projects is a small wood shop where we have a passion for building well-constructed kitchen and dining room tables, coffee tables, unique shelves, entertainment centers, console tables, children's furniture, toys and more.
Ours is a home-based business, so we have lower overhead but still have a high-quality process and facility with a large shop and dedicated clean paint-room.
We specialize in building rustic and homey furniture, but also have experience with built-ins, cabinets, and modern furniture. We also build most of our projects out of reclaimed wood to help the Earth and to give your new piece some added history and character.
Depending on your needs we source new or reclaimed wood from local mills in New England.
Cooper's Custom Projects also has a passion for finishes, both painted and stained. We know that it takes more time to apply the finish to most projects than it did to build it and we love to spend that time making your project look amazing and last a lifetime.
Drop us a line if you have any questions about what we can make for you!

For Industrial-Mill Inspired DeskI will be actively looking for ways to work with Cooper's Custom Projects again. He's absolutely stellar, and delivered a top-notch product (much better than I could have found retail) on-time and on-budget.
I can't say it enough: buy something from him. He's awesome, and you'll be blown away.

For Reclaimed Wood Coffee TableI had an idea in mind for the coffee table we were looking for in our tiny living room -- but wasn't able to find exactly what I wanted in catalogs, and instead, decided to try CustomMade. Michael/Cooper's Custom Projects did an amazing job translating my vision from two photos (each with partial components I wanted to replicate) and my project description and dimensions.
He even shared exactly where the (reclaimed) wood came from that was used in the project. He worked with me on stain colors, provided recommendations, and was just all-around a pleasure to work with…because he is local, we picked up the table ourselves (mostly because I wanted to see his workshop!) and he was just as great in person.
In short, I would highly recommend Cooper's Custom Projects for any wood-working project, we're extremely happy with the end product!

For cutting tableI couldn't be happier with the cutting table Michael made for my sewing studio. From discussing the initial design, to advising what types of wood and finish he thought would best fit my needs, he was a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process. He was professional, kind, and communicative. Best of all, he makes beautiful furniture! I hope to work with him again.

For 2 nightstands for children in whiteThe bedside tables are beautiful---even better than expected. Michael was great to work with through all stages of the project. We couldn't be happier!

For Small cherry deskMichael is a talented woodworker and a real pleasure to work with. Throughout the project he communicated with me clearly and often, helping me envision exactly the desk I needed, keeping me informed about progress, and asking for my input when needed.
The result is terrific, a small desk I will use and appreciate for a very long time.
I highly recommend Michael.
