Hello and happy Friday, friends! I hope your week was wonderful. Are you building anything fun this weekend? How about this rustic, chunky X media console? I teamed up with Ashlee Lindstrom to bring you the plans for this hefty piece! Ashlee is the owner of Cottage Country Corner, a handcrafted furniture and home decor store based out of Utah. She builds such beautiful pieces – I’m absolutely drooling over her gorgeous balustrade coffee table and her adorable entryway bench. I’m so excited Ashlee asked me to draw up the plans for her chunky X media console. We just love how it turned out!
That top shelf fits her DVD player, cable box, and other electronic devices perfectly. And don’t you just love that planked back? Ashlee will be listing this piece in her shop, so if you’re not keen on building it for yourself, then you can purchase it from her! Visit her shop for more details.
And for those of you who want to build this media console for yourself, we are thrilled to share the free building plans with you today!
Thanks for stopping by, friends! Hope your weekend is full of sawdust!
Love this project? PIN IT so you don’t forget it!
I absolutely love this! I have a large space in my dining room and I can’t find a piece of furniture that works. Hopefully this is it!
I entered my email and it didn’t send help please.
Can you send me the plans for the Chunky X Media Console. It will not allow me to download from the web page.
Thanks,
James
Hey Jen,
I absolutely love this media console. I was wondering how I would change the plan if I wanted the console to be longer since the wall I’ll be placing it is big. I was thinking about 7 feet long. Thank you! You’re awesome.

Hi Connie,
You’ll want to extend all the horizontal pieces (top, rails, shelves, etc.) to whatever length you’d like. You may need to add additional support to minimize the risk of sagging though. Hope that helps – good luck!
Can you explain how you cut your X’s. I’m having a hard time a hard time and can’t get them right. Thank you
I just received the plans but they are for the Ashley bench. I am looking for the Chunky Media Console, my husband and I want to try making one.
I’m having a hard time downloading the pdf printable plans for this. It keeps just reloading the page for this plan instead.
Hi Kristyn,
It seems to be working on my end. A window should popup where you can enter your email address and the plans will be emailed to you. Are you seeing that? Thanks!
What stain did you use on the wood?
