While there’s a practical side to a cedar chest, there’s also a personal connection a family makes with this special piece of furniture. In the past, a blanket chest, or “hope chest,” as they’re often called, was filled with many of a family’s most prized possessions. It was a safe place for bedding, of course, but also for things like wedding dresses, important documents, photographs and other items that required protection and safeguarding.

Perhaps your mother or grandmother has one?
A cedar hope chest is designed to sit at the end of the bed, but of course, you can put one anywhere you like. The high-quality natural hardwoods help control humidity and odors and keep your precious items safe and sound.
Built using traditional Amish methods, every one of our beautiful hardwood or cedar storage chests will be around for many years, and they can be passed on to your children. They’ll appreciate knowing that they’re continuing a family tradition, and have a special place to keep their own blankets, bedding and possessions.
We Give You Plenty of Ways to Customize Your Chest
A great way to get started with the selection of your chest is by using the helpful and convenient online design tool that you’ll find on every product page. Have fun experimenting with various combinations of hardwoods (oak, cherry, maple, hickory, etc.) and gorgeous wood stains. Once you’ve discovered the perfect design for your chest, our Amish master crafters will bring it to life by creating a solid wood masterpiece you will cherish forever.
Are you worried you don’t have much room and are lacking the space for one of our Amish hardwood or cedar blanket chests? Rest assured that we carry several different sizes. Some of our smaller wood blanket trunks are ideal for a child’s bedroom or small study, while our largest models look great at the foot of your bed or as a display piece elsewhere in your home. With over a dozen beautiful classic Mission and Shaker-style designs, you can choose a chest that suits the style of your room.
You can even take it a step further and customize your Amish chest right here on our website! Simply choose your favorite design, preferred wood, and the color and shade of stain you like. Depending on the total price of your order, we will apply a discount to thank you for your purchase.
Why not pick a different style hardwood or cedar blanket trunk for every member of your family? They’re especially wonderful for children to use in their bedrooms to store their bedding, clothes and toys. Built sturdy, with quality materials, your authentic wood blanket chests will withstand years and years of use.
Another interesting thing to know is that many of our Amish storage chests are part of a complete set of furniture. As a result, you can choose a bedroom set, for example, and get the matching hardwood hope chest. Some may prefer to get a trunk with a contrasting design so that it really stands out in your room as a centerpiece.
In all cases, the great choice in woods, grains, and stains means you can personalize your Amish blanket chest to suit any décor. Try that with mass-produced furniture, which usually comes in a limited range of materials, and only a handful of finishes.

All you really need to do to preserve your cedar chest is dust its surfaces periodically. A soft feather duster is ideal for lifting dust particles without leaving scratches.
There may be a time you’d like to clean the drawer fronts, panel sides and lids. Use warm water and a drop of mild dish liquid to remove stubborn dirt. Make sure to have a spare cloth on hand to completely dry the wooden surfaces.
