We love the loft bed! She always wanted a bed with stairs and this one was the perfect height for me to still help make the bed.

We did a bench, I got your plans off Pinterest. We just put a slight slant to the back and we love it. Thanks for the great plans.
This is my first build! It came together really easily. I modified the dimensions to fit my space. I didn’t add the black pipes, simply because I couldn’t find all the pieces, or the corner brackets, and I think it looks great without them. I added a handle (a towel bar I found on Etsy) to pull it in and out. I used rough cut cedar, and have not finished it. I’m not sure if I will. I wanted to spray paint the wheels, but the person that helped me attach them (a.k.a. my dad) was ready to to help me before I had them painted! But I love it, and it really adds functionality and stoage to this little gap between our washers and dryers.
We made some modifications by adding a hearth for additional height (the room we have it in is very large and open) and joining 2x4s for the mantel and base which I stained grey for contrast. We decided to use thin brick for in the "firebox" to make it look more realistic. We also have a newborn and spent over two months putting it together a little at a time in our free moments so I'm not sure how long it would actually take to do at once, but cutting and putting up the brick was very time consuming.

This looks great! I'm actually in the middle of this build with the hearth as well. Couple questions....
How did you connect the two pieces? Also, did you connect to the wall? I'm assuming you didn't leave the 5 1/2 inch gap on the bottom of the fireplace and connected direct to the hearth. Let me know, thanks!

Do you have the plans for creating this fireplace with a hearth? Would love to build over thanksgiving break!

Very nice fireplace would you happen to have the plans for it?

Would it be possible to send the plans for this beautiful faux fireplace?
Decided to build Ana's outdoor sofa for our Master Balcony and love the results. I was a bit impatient to finish the build and therefore did not take the time to use pocket screws for a more finished result, (which I will do next time). Regardless, I love how the sofa turned out and would reccomend for anybody to build. The cheapest outdoor cushions I could find were from Ikea and we spent around $160.
When we became accidental chicken owners, we had to build a coop fast. I found the plans for Ana’s replica of the Williams Sonoma chicken coop and got to work. They were very easy to follow and easy to modify to fit our own needs and aesthetic. We decided to enlarge the coop and remove the planter in the original plans do we could accommodate more chickens while keeping the original footprint. Instead of plywood, we used cedar reclaimed from an old fence we had recently replaced. We also enlarged the rear door to make clean out as easy as possible. I cut pieces of corrugated plastic that fit inside the door and windows to winterize the coop when temps drop below freezing. The run is designed to follow the shape of the coop and is large enough to give our 5 chickens plenty of space. The planter box runs the length of the chicken run, providing some plants to munch on inside and shady vines that will eventually cover the outside. Thanks for the awesome plans!
Had a blast with this project and am getting more confident with drawer slides. I built a matching dresser that is much shorter and wider. It can be found here: http://www.ana-white.com/2018/08/DIY_furniture/bedroom-dresser

I must be missing the link to the plans for the dresser. Sorry, could you help me find the plans?
Wed, 09/30/2020 - 17:13
I would also like the plans?? Any help finding the link?

Are the plans available for this piece? Its beautiful! If so, please let me know.
Thu, 08/12/2021 - 15:35
Any way to get a copy of these plans? I really like the look and want to give it a shot. Have to make a few of these if all goes well for all my boys.
Thanks
This nightstand was inspired by the Julia Nightstand. I changed a few of the measurements and added a door. The entire piece is built out of wood I salvaged when I tore out the wall paneling in my basement. The old nail holes add nice character and the color of the wood and grain are really nice. This piece does not have any stain - this is the natural color of the wood. I finished it with water based polyurethane.

I love seeing what people build with salvage and this is fantastic! =D Great work! :)
I made the farmhouse bed and patrick cottage dresser. This bed was so simple to make and looks great! I have step by step pictures on my blog.
I love how my co-op turned out! I added a few things. I made a door for egg collecting, I built 2 nesting boxes. I made a door for access to food and water and I made the middle 2x4s 10 feet so we found move it around the yard. It cost about $130 for me. I had some extra wood that I used for the boxes and ladder. The chickens and myself are enjoying the new coop.

Love how it turned out! You've done the add ons I was also thinking of: adding nest box and egg collector.
Still happy with your design after real life experience?
Entire wall fireplace built-in!
I love this workbench! I added casters so I can move it around the garage, outside, wherever it's needed. I just took 4 inches off the bottom of the legs. My hubby is admiring my handy work and planning on making one for himself.

Love this with the casters! So beautiful. I'm new here and wondering at what point you took 4 inches off the legs. Did you build the table and then just cut off the legs? Or did you adjust the measurements of the cuts? Thanks in advance! :)

The overall height of a 4-inch caster wheel is a little over 5 inches with the mounting bracket, so that also needs to be taken in to consideration. 2nd photo shows the overall dimensions, but to me the bracket and brake area appear to be a bit more than 1.03 inches. https://amzn.to/3DkMKzB
I think the best bet would be to have and measure the overall wheel height, prior to measuring and cutting the lumber.
<p>I worked on this for about 2 weeks in my free time. I modified the original plans from this site to accommodate my needs. I just wanted a “#1” only place near my pool so I didn’t have to dry off and walk all the way up to the house. The trash can is for the TP and I will just toss it when I need to. I used a traffic cone as a pee funnel and attached tubing to the end of the funnel that I buried down along the slope of my yard against the fence line. I ended up adding an area for boys since I didn’t want the inside all gross. I added solar deck lights to the outside and a light inside too. It turned out amazing!!!</p>
Built this table and bench according to Ana's plans worked out great.
Thank you Anna for designing such beautiful plans, and making them available for free. My husband likes the chair so much he doesn’t want it outside! I guess I’ll have to make a few more for our deck.
I followed the kitchen cabinet building plans to build all new upper cabinets up to my ceiling. I built all new drawers with soft close drawer slides also and built the refrigerator enclosure cabinet.I did the entire remodel myself including the new doors out of MdF.

Oh my gosh!!! Serious?! I can’t believe it! Thank you so much!
Since developing a love for woodworking I’ve began building things for other people. This particular bed frame I built for a couple who are rebuilding their home after it unfortunately burned down. It’s a beautiful farmhouse home out in the country, and this bed frame fits perfectly in their new home.
I built 3 of the square picnic tables, as we have a large extended family. I enjoyed the project and the results. I did end up adding a cross brace and some metal clips, they added a little more strength for the table when it was full of people.
Thank you for sharing your plans.
