Super easy! I love it!

I followed the plans mostly. My wife really liked the design. I spaced the drawers out 4 more inches I believe and I made a removable top ,not pictured, so I could stack on top of it. It came out great. Cool idea thank you!

This was a fun project to build. I did change somethings around. I used plexiglass on all doors instead of plywood and it turned out great. Took a lot longer than planned but in the end it was worth it!

My cupboard is quite a lot bigger than the one in the original post but is super sturdy.
It was a relatively easy project to build. My main issue was that I used chipboard for most of the cupboard and ironed on veneer on the cut sections which threw my door frame measurements out of whack and I had to shave a bit of my door off with a plane to get it to fit in neatly.

Changed the Grandy design just a little to bring it up off the floor and add legs to it. I notched 2x4 to line up with the 1x4 face pieces. Then I found barndoor hardware on Amazon for $47 a set. Needed two sets for this console since I wanted two doors. Only needed the one rail piece though. 

My dad and I built my closet based off your plans but did a little modifying. we made four instead of two spaces to hang clothes and the very bottom part will have doors to make them into drawers. 

I went pretty much according to the plan on this one.  Went with the special walnut stain and gloss poly.  Love the look!

After seeing someone else's version of Mimi's faux mantle with shelves, we decided to make our own! We followed the plans for the mantle & made a few adjustments & made our own plans for the side shelves. Stained the top with special walnut, light grey chalk painted with wax, & used faux brick siding from lowe's & painted the bricks white. Wasn't too hard & love the final product. 

This is my first try at building furniture. I've built larger things in the past like decks and a fort for my nephews, but never furniture. Even though I used the plans to build the main box, I did change up the bottom and added some new stuff. I added wheels to the bottom my wife could easily move it around her classroom. I didn't want to put a square base on it because I thought it might hit her ankles when she was standing close to it. So I sort-of notched it out to give an opening for her feet and I used some scraps to create a short shelf at the bottom. I also added more trim that the plans call for. I cut strips of the pine plywood for the base molding and topped it with quarter round. I used corner trim for the front corners, the self inside and the bottom notched shelf. I also used screen trim for the back of it. I think it came out nice and I've very pleased with it. I used 2 coats of Minwax PolyShades American Chestnut on it.

I made this project to add a little life to the front a flip house I just finished.  I had an awkward spot, and I was able to easily modify this plan to fit the space.  Thank you for the inspiration!

I was looking for a way to give our house some better curb appeal and decided our stree numbers could use a facelift.  The majority of money spent on this project was for the numbers since I had enough spare cedar laying around.
