Rustic Armoire
R
ustic Armoire
Most of my favorite project designs result from satisfying my own needs. The one shown
on the next page is no exception. I designed and built this armoire to fit in a small room in our
house that was designated by the builder to be a “study.” He must have pictured the future
owners installing floor-to-ceiling bookshelves, a massive globe, and leather-covered easy chairs.
What I needed, however, was a guest room—ahh, reality! The problem was that the room had
no closet and not much space left over when the sleeper sofa was open for guests. This armoire
neatly solved both my problems. Although it’s only 12” deep, it has a small hanging closet for
clothes and enough drawer space to accommodate guests’ necessities. Because the armoire is so
narrow, it must be attached to the wall to provide stability when the doors and/or drawers are
open.

Notes on Materials
The armoire drawers and doors shown here are constructed from laminated pine boards. Most
building-supply stores sell sections of wood that have already been laminated. You can laminate
the boards yourself, of course, but I don’t recommend doing this unless you’re an experienced
woodworker and own heavy-duty tools. Due to the number of boards and the overall size of the
project, laminating is a bigger job than it may appear to be.
Although this armoire isn’t wide enough to accommodate clothes hangers suspended parallel to
its sides, you can certainly hang clothes parallel to its front and back. Just purchase a wooden
trowel rod with removable arms, attach the arms to the inside top of the armoire, and cut the rod
down to a length that will fit between the arms.
Constructing the Back
1. The basic supporting frame for the armoire is nothing more than a large box. Although it
requires quite a bit of space to construct, the actual assembly is very straightforward. Start
by cutting one 41-1/8” x 70-1/2” wide back (A) and one 23-1/8” x 70-1/2” narrow back (B)
from the ¾-thick plywood.
2. Cut eight 70-1/2”-long inner vertical supports (C) from ¾” x ¾” pine.
3. Using Figure 1 as a guide, glue two inner vertical supports (C) to the wide back (A),
positioning the supports flush with the long edges of the wide back (A). Use 3d finishing
nails, spaced about 6” apart, to secure the supports in place.
4. Cut three 39-5/8”-long shelf supports (D) from ¾” x ¾” pine.
5. Glue one shelf support (D) to the wide back (A), between the two vertical supports (C) and
39-3/4” down from what will be the top of the finished armoire, as shown in Figure 1 .
Secure the shelf support with 3d finishing nails spaced about 6”. It doesn’t make any
difference which end of the wide back (A) you choose as the top, but now is the time to
decide.

Figure 1
6. Glue a second shelf support (D) to the wide back (A), 12-7/8” down from the first support,
in the same manner that you attached the first one, as shown in Figure 1.
7. Nail and glue the remaining shelf support (D) 2” from the bottom edge of the wide back
(A).
8. Glue and nail one inner vertical support (C) to the narrow back (B), flush with one long
edge, as shown in Figure 1 . Secure the support with 3d finishing nails spaced about 6”
apart.
Adding the Sides and Inner Divider
1. Cut two 72”-long sides (E) from 1 x 12 pine
2. Glue one inner vertical support (C) flush with one 70-1/2”-long edge of one side (E), as
shown in Figure 2 . Center the inner vertical support (C), leaving a ¾” gap at each end of
the side (E). Secure the support with 3d finishing nails spaced about 6” apart.
3. Repeat Step 2 to attach another inner vertical support (C) to the remaining side (E).
4. Cut one 70-1/2” long inner divider (F) from 1 x 12 pine.

108204282.046.png
5. Glue an inner vertical
support (C) to each side of
the inner divider (F), flush
with one edge as shown in
Figure 3 . Secure with 3d
finishing nails spaced
about 6” apart.
Figure2
6. Glue a third inner vertical
support (C) to the inner
divider (F), offsetting it ¾”
from the other long edge,
as shown in Figure 3 .
Secure the support with 3d
finishing nails spaced
about 6” apart.
Figure 3
7. Place the inner divider (F)
along the edge of the wide
back assembly, facing its
offset inner vertical
support (C) away from the
wide back (A), as shown in
Figure 4. Glue the inner
divider (F) and wide back
assembly together. Then
insert 2” screws at an angle
through the bottom ¾-
wide offset on the inner
divider (F) and into the
inner vertical support (C)
that is attached to the wide
back (A). Space the
screws about 4” apart.
8. Fit the narrow back (B) underneath the offset inner vertical support (C) on the inner divider
(F), as shown in Figure 4. Glue the narrow back in place and insert 1-1/4” screws, spaced
about4” apart through the inner vertical support (C) on the inner divider (F) and into the
narrow back (B).
9. Center one side (E) on the wide back (A), leaving a ¾” gap at each end, as shown in Figure
4 . Glue the side (E) in place and insert screws, spaced about 4” apart, through the side (E)
to attach it alternately to both the inner vertical support (C) and to the edge of the wide back
(A). Use 2” screws to attach it to the wide back (A) and 1-1/4” screws to attach it to the
inner vertical support (C).
