Not much to say, just a quick project to use up some scrap lumber. Better to use it than burn it.

If you'd like to find out how I modified the laundry dresser to hold four baskets and how I hung the board and batten wall, check out the details on my blog. http://isteppedoutofmycomfortzone.blogspot.com/2011/02/and-did-spontane…
After I hung the boards with Liquid Nails I found out that if I ever want to take them down, the sheet rock is coming down with them! So I would probably skip that step...just incase!

Des [url=http://www.longchampbagsfr.com]Sacs Longchamp[/url] sont des sacs qui sont faites dans l’usine de masse, juste comme le genre plus mature que vous pourriez probablement découvrir dans les grands magasins, sauf qu’ils sont créés rendant l’utilisation du bien, dessins à couper le souffle. En fait, ils ont des styles, couleurs et matériaux qui sont comme des sacs de créateurs, mais sont ensuite utilisées dans l’itinéraire des sacs fabriqués en usine. De cette fa?on, vous obtenez le très plus efficace de chaque monde. Vous serez en mesure d’obtenir une belle revanche, un sac dynamique, mais payer alternativement bien moindre que vous n’aurez probablement besoin pour vous d’obtenir une marque de fabricant qui est en développement à être utilisé. Vous serez en mesure d’obtenir ces généralement en ligne, aussi que dans plusieurs magasins. Des sacs Longchamp, par exemple, sont généralement créés beauté. Ils fournissent des designs tout en utilisant favorisées régulière et les schémas, les figures de dragon animé individus, aux conceptions fourre-tout, après quoi il a offert à tous qu’ils obtiennent à travers le monde, à cause de cette réalité, ils pourraient générer suffisamment pour tout le monde. Vous ne devez posséder plus longue dans les sections et de payer pour à peu près n’importe quel élément limité, tout simplement parce que des dirigeants avides de style dans l’industrie.

Elle a utilisé étant de savoir comment la série vous vécu était d’acquérir une normale, sac inintéressante brun, [url=http://www.longchampbagsfr.com]Sacs Longchamp[/url] ou avoir à payer pour le meilleur co?t de posséder un concepteur de sac extrêmement. Mais heureusement, qui pourrait effectivement très probablement pas être plus longs vrai, parce que la mode des sacs sont en train de révolutionner l’industrie.
Avant, [url=http://www.longchampbagsfr.com]Sacs Longchamp[/url] sont réellement développés au sein d’une manière assez normale. Vous avez vécu des usines qui a élaboré des normes, brun ou des sacs, offerts à des milliers pour pas cher, alors vous incontestablement connu les sacs de créateurs. Les individus sont réellement développés par des designers bien rémunérés qui ont travaillé dans l’industrie de style, et montrerait loin de leur nouveaux sacs à chaque douze mois sur le tapis de couleur rouge. Là, ils obtiendraient des célébrités, acteurs et artistes en général, à mettre sur leurs nouveaux modèles, et leur montrer lointaines à partir de la route du monde.

Mais dans les décennies précédentes, cela a commencé à changer avec Longchamp bon marché, ainsi que la révolution qui est-il passé au sein de l’industrie de style.http://www.longchampbagsfr.com
I chose to modify one of your headboards by only doing step 1-4.
We made a queen headboard and I wanted it slightly taller than the plans suggested so I added 12". I used 3/4" MDF as the back cut 60" w x 48" H, 1x4s for the sides and top and a 1x3 for the bottom. I glued and nail gunned each piece to the edge letting the sides extend down for the legs of the headboard.
I filled the nail gun holes with wood filler. The piece was primed, then painted with 2 coats of color, and then the photos were Modge Podged onto the interior of the headboard touching and overlapping. As my daughter gets older we can add more photos or I can make a fabric insert to go over the photos. She loves it and I'm happy we could do something different.

I love how you made your daughter's headboard personalized. No one else in the entire world will have a headboard like hers! :) That's amazing! And the color coordination is great. =D
We scaled this table down to fit in a Boston apartment dining room, which also serves as an entryway. We used six 2x6's instead of seven, and cut them down to 5' instead of 6'. We also went with standard Home Depot table legs in the interest of cost. This was our first-ever Ana White project and the first furniture my dad has ever built - and it was great to be part of the process (I mostly attached the screws, sanded, stained and painted while he did all the hard work. I bought the chairs for $5 each off Craigslist and intended to sand and re-finish them to match the table, but I've received lots of compliments on the red! I absolutely love this table and eat at it daily.

Great first project and what a deal on the chairs! Looks fabulous!
I wanted a new bed that was a little taller that the irobot vacuum could get under and the dog could not. Altered the modern queen sized farmhouse bed using mostly pallet wood to come up with this. Overall cost about $65 with the lights and all.
I recently built this for a fundraiser for a friend, who suffered from a stroke, people loved it.
I built a pair of cornhole boards following a tutorial on This Old House. I used the Glidden Paint Team Colors line to get the a quart of blue and orange paint in the official Auburn colors. I used my Silhouette Portrait machine to create stencils for the AU logo, Auburn tiger logo and "War Eagle" text.
Love , love, love building this hutch. Started off with plans from the Shanty Hutch and out my own twist on it. Finished with valspar chalk paint and aging wax. Total build took around 2 weeks (part time).
I’ve been working on building up to this playhouse for a while. Just got the doors on and am pretty pleased with what’s my first project of any size. Built on top of a modified version of the playhouse deck with a to be added (hopefully) swing in front. Color selection by the end customer (who’s 8). Modified to add 12 inches for a 5’ doorway. Thankfully I caught that at the last minute for the kiddo. Still a menace if I forget to duck. But super roomy once inside.

Love the shades of blue, thank you for sharing your awesome creation!
I've been using a bunch of FREE pallets on some projects here lately and decided to make the Reclaimed Wood Headboard with the pallet wood that I had. Every piece of wood came from pallets and it turned out pretty great. We're still undecided about if/how we want to stain it....but for now it's all natural'. I made mine a couple inches shorter then the plans called for and an inche or two narrower based on the measurements of our Full Size Bed. I documented this project as best as I could at: http://www.tommyandellie.com/Site/Home/Entries/2011/7/20_Entry_1.html

Looks beautiful. I wouldn't stain it. Just put a clear finish on it and call it good.

One of my favorite things is to use pallets for lumber! I have finished pallet wood before successfully using Minwax Poly-shades. Love Golden Oak as it doesn't do much but enhance the grain...grab a few samples and try them out on some scrap boards, that's the only way you will know how it will look in the end! Best of luck!

Thanks!

We pretty much followed the plan with the exception of making the legs 28" tall and then removing the middle bar and then adding two additional supports 4" higher than the lower ones and put them on the opposite sides as the lower one. It formed a ladder like thing which we wanted since this was for kids starting at age 3. I hope that makes sense it doesn't really sound right to me but anyways moving one. It was really fun to make these I made three for my older sister since the walmart specials that she bought were horrible and falling apart after a short amount of time. They were easy two do probably about a day of cutting and assembling and then a day of staining and polying however if you were only doing one then it would be a day project at most. My other tip is that after cutting all the pieces I sanded them which made it nice after putting the top on and not having to worry about if the parts in between the two pieces touching was sanded enough not to give the kids splinters. And the best part was that I got a new tool which I love, the Kreg pocket hole jig. It was fun. I did have some splitting on the test wood pieces (scraps from cutting pieces for the stool) so instead of having the aprons flush I used an old cd case under the apron and attached them that way it was close to center but no worries about splitting and was super easy to do.
This was my husband's and my second furniture build, and the first with doors! We went ahead and followed the dimensions in the instructions, and even with wood that was 3.5, we still had doors that were a little short. I figure it adds character. Hinges were a little difficult for us, as we are new to woodworking DIY projects, but I'm very happy with the final project. Edge banding, magnetic clasps, and stain throughout really makes it look like a nice, finished piece. Thanks, Ana!
A side note on timing, for us this was a long weekend project that took us in to the next week. For others, I am sure it could go much quicker. That time also included finishing.
My daughter has a VERY SMALL bathroom and this was the perfect build to create storage! Thanks, Ana!

This looks fabulous, thanks for sharing!
This is a slightly modified version of Ana's Providence bench.
http://ana-white.com/2012/04/plans/providence-bench
In Step 1, instead of having the bottom supports flush with the end, I decided to center them on the 2x4s.
This means the bottom rail needs to be shortened accordingly.
I sanded everything down with 120, and 220 grit sand paper.
I find it easier and quicker to sand larger pieces of lumber than smaller pieces.
Next everything was cut to size, and then primed. I let the primer dry for a few hours, and added the second coat of primer.
I primed all the surfaces, exposed and unexposed. Now some of you may think this was overkill. But since I live in Arizona, I didn't want the wood warping. This also protects if from all the elements.
Next day, it was all assembled, this took a few hours, we used a kreg jig to make most of the holes, I didn't have the right kreg screws, so I just used outdoor deck screws.
Finishing:
I filled all the holes with wood putty. This needed to be done several times, because putty shrinks, more so in the heat here.
Eventually, sanded it all down with 220 grit lightly, just so that there were no tell tale signs.
Next painted the bench red a few times. I needed about 2 coats to get it just right..
My contractor commented on how sturdy this bench was, coming from him, that's quite a compliment, it turned out to be A LOT sturdier than I thought it would be based on how flimsy those angled supports were...
It matches my red front door and is a great place to have my morning coffee and put my shoes on.
Took me a little while for the first one, but now going to make more and will be much quicker now that I made it through the first time!

Can you please let me know how you installed the hinges. The toy chest has an inlet on the back so the lid and hinges are not flush. How did you install them?
Any suggestions or sketches of installation of lid with hinges?
Thanks- Joanne K
So took the plans and added a 1x4 floor on bottom and 2x4 runners on bottom for support and to keep off ground. The used landscaping fabric to help hold sand in.
Thanks for the plans was quick and simple and had done in about 4 hrs start to finish.
I built these lawn chairs for my daughter from your plans. Thanks
As my daughter got older she refused to sleep in her crib, so I decided I wanted matching beds for her and my son. We live in a small 2 bedroom house so they have to share. So while looking up ideas for nice beds at a cheap cost I followed links until I reached ana-white.com and I was amazed. I sat on my computer for hours yelling at my husband to "COME LOOK AT THIS" (which I still do today). So I picked a plan and started on in. With some help cutting from my dad I had the first bed done in a couple days. Sadly I have not finished the second due to a random mind and trying to find a way to make my boy and girl room a little more grown up and uni-sex friendly.

Doesn't matter who helped - you did it! Can't wait to see the finished look when the room is all done - please keep us posted!
