I loved the idea of the charging cubbies and the storage area in this plan!
I needed something a little shorter, for my three younger boys to be able to reach the hooks, though. I modified the plans a bit for this. I also opted out on the drawers and just left the cubbies open. With my boys, the more simple something is to use, the more likely they will make the effort ;)

I added a 2x4 to the back for hooks. I wanted the wall color to show through the back, so I didn't use a back piece.

My shelves are about 2.5 ft long. I wanted a display area in my dining room to show off some plates I had made for my boyfriend a while back.

I loved the style of this desk but needed it to be quite a bit smaller. I reduced the measurements down from 48 inches wide to 28 inches wide. This required only 4 foot long 1x12. I added just one 15 inch wide faux drawer on the front. This was incredibly easy to build. It took me longer to paint and stain the timber than it did to build it.

This was the first time I had ever worked with some of the tools and really done any serious building.  We built a new deck onto the back of my home and I could not stand the cost of the furniture to make it complete.  Thank you Anna I have become fearless with tools!!  Our deck has become even more special!!

I made 2 of your Potting Tables to use as my display tables for my wood working kiosk.

Used the plans as provided by Ana for the Rustic X Coffee Table.

I built this table using barn wood I reclaimed from a farmstead in Saline, MI which I dismantled in 2010. Interestingly enough, during the dismantling, the farmstead served as a movie set for the filming of Cedar Rapids, starring Ann Hesche, John C. Riley and Sigourney Weaver.

Thanks for looking,

I built this for my daughter's 5th birthday. She didn't actually have a bed in her room and this seemed like a great opportunity to dust off some of my skills.

It was a big project, but worth it all when I saw how much she LOVES it.

I love this X Console! Thanks for the plans! 

A shape chicken coop built in just two days about 9 hours east to do. But heavy to move but everyone is loving it!!!!

Built at 31 weeks, rockers were indeed tricky. Would recommend leaving top of rockers straight. My doctor objected to me staining it myself so my mom did it for me.

Hands down one of the most popular items I get asked to build!

Thank-you Ana for the awesome plans.

Took the dimensions for the little helper towers and used the 24 inch width so it can accommodate two kids. Built two of these for my nephew, one for his house and one for my parents. Took 3 days of work, so I must not be as efficient as everyone else, but boy does he love them. Been eating all of his meals in his "tower" ever since he got them. Makes the effort worth it! One note: I couldn't get the pocket screws to work at all, ended up destroying a few pieces of wood which required an extra trip to the lumber yard. I would suggest just using counter bores.

I built the computer desk for mom to replace on of those cheap press-wood desk. This was not build from an existing plan.
