I made this dollhouse for my daughters birthday and made all of the furniture from scrap wood.
This is my first solo and most ambitious project. I only had some help with getting the doors hung. I combined my long-time love of machine embroidery and my new found love of woodworking to create the doors on this project and really make it something special. I'm going to be using this piece in place of a chest of drawers in my bedroom.

What an awesome project! Love the finish, and the design on the doors. How did you do the door panels? They're lovely!

Wow that is really awesome! I love the stain and the way that this turned out!
Dear Ana,
I built this Deck chair as per the plans on your site. Super easy for amatuer beginners like me. Enjoyed making it. Thank a lot!
I built this changing table for my friend's new baby. I had to stain all the individual pieces and assemble it at her house. It wouldn't fit assembled in my vehicle! :)
I also built her a stepstool as well.
I wanted to revamp my mudroom and need some storage so I built a bench and designed it as a built-in.

thanks,

I took the plan from this and rather than have a two tone with paint, I stained the entire thing and used my wood burner to burn a pentacle in the top. My wife loves her altar.
This was a blast. Thanks so much for the plans Ana, as well as for all the comments after the plans, which help a lot too. I did a combo, and it worked wonderfully! I made a little more work for myself than I needed to, but for a first project, I feel proud of myself...and can't wait for my next project.
This was a quick weekend project. I built two: one for myself and another for a sister. I really like this frame. It's a neat way of displaying photos.

thanks so much for the plans! :)
I had a wonderful time making this toy box and learning new techniques. Having access to a table saw really made this project turn out awesome. I was able to get 1/4" shims made that allowed for easy, precise offsets. The family just loved it!
My kids outgrew the original locker I built for them. Plus we have adopted 2 kids through foster care. So my wife asked for a new locker. I found this design on the website and determined we needed 2. Then to make it better we wanted a bench to connect the 2. So I built a 3rd bottom of the locker and adjusted the measurements for the space we had. Turned out amazing.
These are my wooden magazine files made after looking at Ana's plans. I chose to paint these to match my bathroom.

Great idea for corraling the magazines that pile up in the bathroom! I really like the colors, too.
We used the idea of the traditional wood toddler bed but modified it to get the look we were going for.
I took a different direction on the doors instead of using the barn doors I used old wooden windows in place of them.
This table cost around 35.00 to make and a couple of hours to build. I used the dark walnut stain twice and polycrylic. Very sturdy, good looking table.

Thank you. We were surprised how pretty the stain turned out.
Paint color krypton blue ocean breeze gloss.
My husband just used Ana’s plans to create my Dream craft table.
My husband and I used your instructions and made this bench! We are further furnishing our home, and we love it! We went with a weathered gray stain to match some other furniture we have.
I made a few changes from the plans but the size remained the same ( which is huge!!).I used birch plywood for the frame and MDF 1x2 for the faceframe and window and door trim. I would reccommend cutting the windows and doors 1/8"-1/4" smaller and using a router with a flush trim bit with a top of bottom bearing. Clamp a straight edge along the window and door openings to trace with the bearing of the router bit. For the roof I used tougue and groove 4" beadboard made of pine. I used 10' lengths because of the 49" width. They were actually a better price than the regular 1x4 pine. The beadboard adds a little detail the the ceiling of the 3rd floor. It also gives a shingle-like appearance on the flipside with the textured spraypaint. The pieces on the front are 2.5" wide. I also filled the ends with wood putty to hide the exposed groove.
