Does a solid, like a night stand, vibrate macroscopically because the atoms and molecules that make up the solid vibrate?

We know particles that make up solids vibrate, but do the solids vibrate themselves because of that? Like a structure or object like a night stand, does that night stand vibrate macroscopically because the particles are vibrating microscopically ?

I don’t feel vibrations! Maybe the temperature of the object. So is the answer to this question no?
