Learn the tools and woodworking tips you'll need to make this useful blanket chest and toy chest. This is a great woodworking project to do and the chest comes in really handy around the house.
I built a blanket chest, following your guideline, with many modifications. I could not have done it without your direction and advise. Thanks, greatly appreciated. My wife loves it!
That's great Harry, Thanks for the comment
Love this chest, will try to build for my daughter. I have no wood working experience but will try. Thanks Jon for the video.
This is the video I needed. I've been wanting to build one for my 15 month old daughter. The face frame and decorative molding was the idea I had but still debating on the leg idea or just go with bottom side rails. Nothing better than building something like this for your own child instead of the cheap ones from the store. Thanks again!
rjdshmetal thanks , so true have a good build
Not only are you a great carpenter but also a great teacher
Keep up the great work I am 32 years old and also love wood working, it never gets boring
hi Jon, for me the looks of the box seems like a lot of work to do it, but the way you show me, it is not. you made it simple and easy. You are such a guru. Thankyou.
Thanks
The greatest product!
I've officially watched this video over 50 times. Though I already built a blanket chest based on your design, I did make modifications to make it mine, or a little different. I bet if everyone that built a blanket chest based on your design emailed you a pic for your website, you would see many beautiful variations. Probably many thousand pictures. That is cool. Still, we all did it because of you. Thanks Jon Peters! You are a woodworking artist
Coming from a a structural engineering student, its a pleasure to learn about the practical aspects in order to compliment the design aspects we learn in school!
Thank you for your videos Jon! If you can focus more on structures like a shed, that would be great :)
Jon, it is always a pleasure to watch you work. No theatrics, just the calm capable application of artistic and woodworking skills. You make it look easy, but I would never try drawing lines and curves by hand like that.
not all skilled carpenters can teach the skills. It requires the mentor to break each step down to the basics and remembering that many beginners are watching. Jon has achieved this in spades which isn't easy IMO. Great job Sir
I spent a long time trying to find the right project to make for my daughter (who is going to be born in about week). I consider myself an extreme novice when it comes to woodworking, but I thought I'd give this a try. I took my time and followed the instructions closely and it came out wonderfully. I didn't have a couple of the tools (e.g., Kreg Jig) so I improvised a little bit which worked out pretty well, and I just don't have the skills to curve the bottoms of the legs so I left them straight. It lacks a bit of the precision that Mr. Peters demonstrates in the video but I'm very proud of it none-the-less. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful design and easy to understand instructions! Regards. JP
Really nice to hear JP, thanks so much and all the best, Jon
JP Garrison - Thanks for sharing your experience. Like you I am an extreme novice and I was apprehensive about attempting this project. However, your comment has inspired me to try and build it. All the best in your woodworking.
Jon Peters - Thank you for all of the great designs, how-to instruction and inspiration. Pls keep the vids coming!
Will do , Thanks Dave
Hi JP. I hope you don't mind me asking but what is the dimensions of the base cap molding that you used? The ones around here are around 1 3/8" wide and it looks on the video that the one he uses is smaller.
Wonderful design
Jon makes it look so simple. I wish all wood worker teachers would teach so clear and concise! Directions like this are an inspiration. Maybe, I can do this too! It may take me a month and my lines my not be perfect, but now it's possible. Thanks
Hi J wow thats not going to fall apart so well made, when you cut the little piece of molding, you could tape the small piece to the saw 1st before cutting if like me you have sawdust all over the floor,
G
Don't worry about the long videos and thank you for showing a detailed process.
Hi Jon, Just finished this project in time for my Grandsons First birthday! Thank you for the video, And cut list...Cutting the molding is a challenge, but if your patient, it can be done!...Great Design Jon!!
That’s great Chris, thanks for the note. If you want send me a photo and I put on my site or Face Book.
Jon I have enjoyed Making this blanket chest. It is a Christmas present for my brother and sister-in-law. I made them a Murphy bed last year and it matches prefect. Thanks a million.
I think you did a great job explaining the tools you used and how to build the chest. I'll be looking at your website and more of your videos and will try to tackle this project.
Thanks Rich
You have the knack of taking an ordinary box and making it look great. Thanks for sharing this Jon.
You really explain this so well it seems like any guy could take this on with a bit of patience. Thanks a lot for taking the time to make it, the chest and the vid.
What an awesome video - you've struck the perfect balance of being really informative without dragging the pace. Everything I could have wanted to see, you got in there and showed. Amazing work. Thank you!
That's great man, thank you
I loved how he showed his cut sheet , and really went into details.
This is one of my favorite builds Jon! I'm going to give this leg design a shot. Again thanks for sharing.
Cool, go for it, Thanks Edgar and good luck with the project.
Your newfound Kreg jig goes to show that newer is not always better. That thing reminds me of the old Rocketman show. Enjoyed your video. I tried to make a straight line like you do...maybe one day you might make a video, for us, to show that awesome technique. Thanks for posting.
Jon, I love the look and design of this chest!
Very Nice! Love how the chest looks. My wife was asking me to build a blanket chest. Now i have a great example
That is one nice blanket chest, wish I could cut mitres as neat as you'res
You sir, are a god among us mere mortals.....
Thank you!
Jon, I made this chest and although it turned out good it was a challenge for me but in a good way. You challenged me to be a better woodworker and I thank you for that. The chest is for my new granddaughter and I needed to attach safety hinges to the lid. This proved to be a task that was beyond my ability and I made several mistakes. The lid was just too heavy for most hinges. If there is another one out there that you know maybe it could help someone else. What I eventually wound up doing was taking the hinge support piece of and replacing it with a 3/4 piece using Rockler torsion hinges. This worked great and doesn't look bad either. I know she will enjoy it for years to come.
That’s fantastic! I’m really happy to hear it. I do plan to make another one this fall and I’ll keep that in mind. Thanks!
Mr. Jon your good very very good. Wonderful. your professor. thanks profe. jon
I made in 3/4 of the way through the build. I was making it for my wife until my daughter claimed it!!! Thanks for the great video and it's a wonderful chest
You are the rain man of straight lines!!
My husbands next project!! Thank you for sharing
Jon,
I love the video and you make it look easy. I am fairly new to woodworking and have collected just about all the tools needed except for the Kreg jig. My only issue is finding the lumber to start the chest. Lumber is very expensive if you don't shop around.
Thanks again,
Harley
3348harley Thank you
Never seen that model kreg jig. That is awesome. Love my blue plastic but that is superior. Great work too by the way!
Nice video!
Jon, I recently started watching your videos and signed up to you website. I always wanted to do some woodworking myself, but didn't know where to start. You sir, have made it so easy to follow instructions on your plans. My first project will be the stand up planter box this spring. Thank you again for your amazing videos.
Very nice!.
Thanks
Thanks for the great video Jon, I'm making this for my daughter as a Christmas gift, about 90% done right now, just have the lid, prepping, and painting left
Beautiful piece of furniture..love the legs too. Wow!!
Curtis Stewart Thanks Curtis
Youre welcome sir.
May Almighty Allah bless your hand work
Hola! 🖐I really, really like how it is looking. I can foresee making a few of these for my sons to store the grandkiddos blankets and such. Thanks for making this really nice project approachable with this well produced and explained video. Now, going to Part II. Take care and have a good one, Adios!👊
excellent craftmanship, very nice done. i was wondering why you chose to have the screws showing, but now i know why...! thank you for this idea.
no stile and rail bit. just simple rips and miters. love it. it really come sown to how well you can hid your glue joints....
Hi Jon is such pleasure to see your videos, thanks for sharing.
I made mine out of clear pine. I've got several compliments on it. Thanks, your instructions were easy to follow. I am making a second one with a 1x8 pine base instead of legs.
Cool project! Thanks for sharing Mr. Peters.
Excellent work, and not too long of a video at all. Looking forward to part two!
Nice work Jon. Thanks!
Great blanket chest I will make it in walnut or cherry
Jon, thank you. I made this as a Christmas present for my wife this year!
That’s awesome! Thanks for the comment and merry Christmas!

Hey Jon. I really love your videos. Thanks so much for taking the time to make them.
Nice job and guitar playing is a great touch.
True craftsman. Enjoy your videos.
Thank you
The free hand pencil marks are impressive
always so interesting and a very good teacher. Thank you.
Nice blanket chest, thanks for sharing Jon.
I really enjoy watching your videos. I specially appreciate how you show the small details about the way you work. Such as the way you keep track of what pieces you cut and using a brush to remove glue.
Awesome job on the chest Jon. I am looking forward to the design you settle on for the top of the chest.
Derek

Indeed, always a pleasure watching you work. One always learns more from the patient teacher. Your explanations and details are thorough and very informative for a DIY'er like me. Thank you for sharing your expertise with us.
I've got to make one of these. Love the way you did the legs - I don't have a bandsaw so that may be a tricky job for a coping saw.
Very nice project. Well done.
excelentes tus trabajos y bien simples gracias por los consejos. saludos desde argentina
Thank you
Lovely,...tidy work.😁😁😁
