My daughter is into everything Minnie Mouse right now so I figured, why not!

Modified the design to allow me to roll lawnmower directly in the end. Fun project.

Needed to do a little spring cleaning in the garage and organization.

Picnic table and benches from an original (as far as I know) design I copied from my father-in-law. It is roughly 4'x4' and can comfortably seat 8 people, and is very sturdy.

It took a while to come together and made several modifications but it is a great coop and was a major selling point of the house when we were relocated.  I had added a main tray under the roosts and a door to srape the poop out.  This made keeping the coop clean very easy.  

I recently discovered your blog and got really inspired. After building a couple of beginner projects following your plans, i started to think about making something that can be used as medicine cabinet and does not take much space. Came up with the idea for this over the toilet storage rack.

My goal was to recycle/reuse some of the stuff that was sitting in my garage.
Started with building a frame using 1x6s (24 inch for shelves and 72 inch height). Used plastic table mats were used as sliding windows. Found a PVC trim (8 ft) for $2 at lowes that has been used as the rails/track for the windows. The back is piece of cardbord that was scrap from an old broken ikea bookshelf.

I am pretty happy that i recycled some stuff and made this in less than $15.

It was time for my son to move to a big bed. So he got his sister's bed and she got a new loft bed. From the pictures on your website, she just loved this bed. I was able to throw it together and get it painted in a weekend and she was sleeping in it by Monday night. I added the rails because we weren't able to set it in a corner, and now that it is Xmas time we strung lights on them. We painted it white. For the mattress support I used 3/4" slats of MDF and used left over paint from her walls to paint the exposed side. Over all it was a pretty simple project, gives her more room and my daughter loves it.

Anything is possible when you put your mind to it. This is my 4th DIY furniture project. First time working on cabinet/doors. Installing them straight was the biggest challenge. The side of the pantry is actually four 2x4's. I measured the frame so tightly that I had to use a hammer to bang in the fourth 2x4 on each wall, also adding a distressed look in the process. The pantry is very large, 48in wide and about 17 inches deep. Our kitchen lacks storage space and we could use a little more space for food and also pots, pans etc. The staircase to our basement is off our kitchen, so I placed the pantry right at the bottom of the staircase for easy access. I am thrilled with how this came out considering the time and effort it took. Very gratifying. Build on!
