Construction

Make the legs, two 6 1/2 inches longer than twice the outside depth of the cupboard boxes, and two 6 1/2 inches longer than twice the outside depth of the cupboard boxes and the outside length of the upper compartment box combined. Remove the ends from the four cupboard boxes and the cover from the packing-box. Lay a cupboard box on its side and place another on its side upon it, and nail together through the abutting sides. Do the same with the other two cupboard boxes. Make the packing-box the same width as the depth of a pair of cupboard boxes, then place the packing-box on its end and set a pair of the cupboard boxes on their sides upon it. Match their edges and nail together. Join the other pair to the other end of the packing-box in the same manner, having all the openings facing alike. Turn them all over so the openings will all face up, and put on the corner and the facing strip legs, having the edge of the facing strips even with the inside edge of the middle compartment. Reverse, having the openings down, and nail on the rear legs, allowing all the legs to project 6 1/2 inches below the bottom face. Turn it right side up, on its legs, and nail the top on, having its rear edge even with the outside face of the rear legs, allowing it to project at the ends and in front 1/2 inch over the outside face of the legs. Remove the covers from the remaining boxes and put in the shelves at the heights desired. Set each box in its place on the top, having their backs even with the lower portion of the stand.

Put the facing strips on the end of the lower portion and also over the front edge of each of the upper portions, having their outer edges even with the outside edge of the box. Fit and hang the doors and screw on the pull-knobs and buttons. Screw two hooks in the under-side edge of the top of the packing-box, and cut and lay a broom handle in them upon which may be arranged a sliding curtain. Cut a broom handle to fit between the upper boxes and place it about as shown, to serve as a towel rack. A mirror may also be fitted as shown. Put on the upper top, keeping its rear edge even with the outer face of the rear legs, allowing it to project 1/2 inch over the outer face of the legs at the ends and 1/2 inch over the facing strips in front.
