This one took a while in between taken care of the baby and working full time this one took me prolly 2 weekends or longer to do if I didn't have to do all that stuff lol. I had this horrible wiring rack if you can see that went top to bottom and these stupid sliding doors that I really hate bc with the dresser there it's like I can't get in so I just took them off I really want to put in a bifold dorr there but can't so I prolly will hang bead's instead. Kadence really enjoyed picking out the colors and helping me paint. I started off on debating for awhile what I was going to paint what color. I was gonna paint it all pink and do a design of something in green but I think this turned out pretty nicley and really compliment's there purple room. Yay I saved my office from going to the basement!!! Kadence is really happy to get to share her bedroom and I am really happy to be able to get into the closet and actually want to use it so hopefully the room will stay clean and I can get ride of some furniture and get rid of the piles of clothes in my living room lol. I also am glad she can put her own clothes away bc it's just her size. I don't think I am done yet with it tho. I want to put some things on to hang her day hat's on and some ledges towards the out side I think to hold her books. This one cost a little bit more for everything almost about 200 prolly with all the extra's we got for it and the expensive pine. It also took longer bc I had to tear out the old rack and mudd the hole's and tear out the carpet in the closet so I could see the old wood floor and place this in correctly needed to get rid of the carpet eventually any ways. The painting took awhile also of course because I had to prime then paint if I would have used one color it prolly wouldn't have taken that long.

I made this for my wife. I used 2x3 glue and screw together for the table top. I have a conception that a heavy table top create a sturdy table. I used redwood 2x3 with lag screw. The sitting bench is completely made out of 2x3.

This was easy.   The chairs arw heavy and very sturdy.   I love it. I built two.  I am modifying the plan to accomodate a three cushioned sofa.  Awesome!

This was my husband's first project, to build our son a new big boy bed. For being his first project, it went pretty smoothly. He worked on it off and on for about a week, but didn't take longer than 12-14 hours or so. We painted it with a semi-gloss white paint, and I'm currently working on curtains (made to look like a barn) to hang on the bed. Noah loves his new bed!

This is a sample of what I have done using Ana's plans. Thanks Ana!!! I will be posting my entire kitchen Reno in the near future.

We wanted a patio table to fit up to 10.  Done with a mix of pocket holes & 1/2" hex bolts. Made small changes to the stretchers. Moved them inside because we liked that aestetic better.  We made the top longer because we didnt want to do the breadboard ends. Used big 4" hex bolts & washers and painted them with "hammered steel" paint to give them a more vintage look.

Will be making the matching benches next. We wanted the benches to fit perfectly underneath the table for storage, so Ill be cutting the bench seats to fit under table leg to leg. 

The only thing I did different to the plan was add 4.5 inches to the back slats so I could round the edges and 3 inches to the right arm rest so I could cut out a track to rest a wine glass. One thing I highly recommend is to create a stencil of the stringer. I did and now I have it for the next one so the next chair will be consistent. Thanks Ana white, this site is very therapeutic for me. Already built 3 projects in the last month.

This was my first build and I loved making it! I wasn't able to make the 60 degree cuts needed for the x's but I hope to be able to add them in the future!

My oldest son grew out of his twin bed and we found the plans for the Cassidy bed and thought it'd be perfect.  He couldn't think of a " theme" for his room so we decided to make the headboard taller to keep from having a "blank wall" to have to decorate.  It turned out great! We used Colonial Maple, American Walnut and English Chestnut stains for the shims & Colonial Maple + Kona for the border.  This was my first time building a queen bed. I am so excited with the way it turned out.  This project was so much easier than I had anticipated.  It took about 3 days for me because we had triple digit weather and that limited the amount of time I could work outside.  I needed help with the final assembly, but other than that, it was a breeze.  Thanks again for the awesome plans!

This was supposed to be a table top, however I screwed up a corner so we stained it and turned it into a headboard. We decided to add eye bolts and make it look like it was suspended from the ceiling with rope.

This week I built a french cleat sanding station  to house my orbital sander and sand paper!

Double closet door build I did for a relative. He provided the stack of barnwood. Used a carbon gray stain. Fun and rewarding build!

We're adding our chickens this weekend!
