I've made these tool boxes for my grandkids, but loved the idea to use them for other things. This is the 2nd diaper caddy I've made and each one has been a hit with the new grandparent or parent. I think they're cute and practical!
Painting took longer than building it!

I made this for my grand-daughter for her birthday following the plan from the plan catalog using my Keg Jig and scraps from previous projects. My wife followed a link from then plan to make the pad and quilt. I spray painted it with a semi-gloss pink - her favorite color

Needed shelves for my shed. Ur design fit the bill. Cannot wait to make more

Parents wanted an outdoor table on the deck. They had scrap wood in the basement from when the house was built. Found the design from Ana White, inspired, and adapted it. It was a small project, but the success of this inspired me to get back into building furniture. It doesn't have to be complicated and the satisfaction of building something from materials that exist and working with what one has in terms of tools and skills is very satisfying.

I just followed Ana's plan!

I meshed the Farmhouse Bed with the Farmhouse Storage Bed with Storage Drawers and this is the final product. Let me know if you have any questions. I learned along the way.

A few things I modified -

I knocked off the corners of the 1x8's used in the footboard and headboard as I wasn't a fan with how they butted up straight. I liked the rounded edges of the routered boards instead.

I cove routered the tops of 2x6's and loved how they turned out

When I handed my cutlist to the kid at the big orange store, he pulled OSB instead of plywood for the storage cabinets. I realized it halfway through the cutting as I was shopping for other things and didn't have the heart to tell him halfway through the job. I had to edge band (first time) the edges and the OSB soaked up a lot of primer.

My first shot at furniture making. Two benchright farmhouse tables. Made from reclaimed lumber I found in my barn and poplar milled by Wayne my neighbor. Thanks Wayne and Anna White. These are in the dinning room of our Country Road House B&B located Clendenin WV. Look us up, stay and eat breakfast on these tables!

This is my very first project. I have no other tools yet besides the drill, so I had to make all the cuts with the hand saw, but it worked out well :) As I am in Europe, the imperial metrics mean nothing to me. The wood they sell here is of different sizes. That is overall not an issue, although I had a tough time calculating the holes for the legs. Luckily, only one error hole, and all came out level on the first try. No waste of wood! I also had a good helper.
Thank you, Ana

Built this for extra seating in my dining room. I followed Ana's plans to the T.... I used a skill saw and chisel to notch the wood...

We added some fun features to this project that our little girls LOVE. For more information and pictures visit: http://bit.ly/1feQ4se for full details! Hope you like it :)

The plan for this great castle bed on this blog inspired me to make this castle bed for my daughter Elise. I basically just followed this plan and adjusted it to my own idea:

Thanks very much for all the great ideas!

My sim went off to college and needed a coffee table for his apartment- so I made him the farmhouse coffee table! I just love your plans!

My 7 year daughter and I built the Fiona's Doll Adirondack Chair together for her friend's birthday. This was Kylee's first build. She decided instead of finishing the chair, she would give her friend paints and let her do it herself. The chair went was easy to build thanks to such great plans. It took between 2-3 hours. Although I think without her help it would of been a bit quicker. I could not be happier or prouder of a project.

Loved how this entry table/ sofa table turned out!
