I followed your plans, with the exception of the computer desk. I mede it just a bit deeper, 1.5" or so. If I were to do this again, I think I'd go a little deeper still, maybe. Anyway, great design.
My first project since getting a miter saw! I'm so proud of how they turned out. We needed sturdy side tables so our toddler can't pull them down onto herself & these fit the bill. I dont have a brad nailer so had to pound in the nails by hand, which made it take a lot longer.... overall for me was a week & a half long project with 2 littles to care for at the same time. I used walnut stain, 2 coats. Can't wait to do another project!
We found your great plans and site online. My son, Michael made 6 Garden Benches for his Eagle Scout Service Project and donated them to the local Master Gardener’s Association.
They turned out beautiful!
Thank you for sharing your plans. We’re looking forward to building more of your projects!

This was the first West Elm Knock off I attempted. This was the first coffee table my sister requested. This was also my first experience welding. All in all it turned out pretty amazing. She wanted one with a lifting table. I bought the lift off of Amazon for around $60. The wood is all Poplar and she used a mixture of stains to get the look she wanted. I also added a hinge to the back other half of the table top so you can lift it to add more stuff inside the table. I do not have any plans for this project as well i mostly just looked at the website and used the dimensions they had posted.
After renovating our screen porch at the onset of Covid, I searched online for an indoor patio furniture. As you probably guessed , with my limited budget, I couldn't find "affordable" and "quality" in one product . ALAS! Ana White's website and her Modern Chair Plans appears in my search. After reviewing her easy to use plans, my husband and I were confident we could tackle the project. With a few modifications, we are very pleased with results. Modifications: Added one additional 2 x 6 providing a higher backrest ; increased the chair height 3"(for us, making it easier to get in and out of the chair); and, used dowel rods to fill screw holes. Also with the extra leftover material, my husband made ottomans that under the chair for easy storage.
We love the results and use them daily! Thank you Ana for sharing your plans!
Great easy project to get the bigger chicks out of the garage to integrate with the older hens. Made some modifications because we have a lot of critters trying to kill the chickens/chicks.
Thank you so much for the plan. I created a console table by adjusting the dimensions (finished table is 54 x 18 x 30) and omitted drawers. Used Modge Podge to adhere raffia to table (this was the most time consuming part of the project). Finished with a clear coat of polyurethane. Based this project on a table I originally saw in the HGTV Green Home 2010 master bedroom. http://hgtv.sndimg.com/HGTV/2010/03/03/GH2010-105_03-master-bedroom-wid…

I'd been wondering on how to attack the covering of my desk with fabric. I'd toyed with the idea of Modge Podge but was not quite sure on its adhering capabilities. Around here, it gets so humid that the adhesive on my 3D Command strips melts and things fall off the walls. How has it held up thus far? I'm attempting to cover mine in upholstery fabric.
I can't take credit for the bed, just the steps. After my friend purchased a new bed for their daughter, she needed some helping getting into it. The plans for these steps were great and easy to build. Very sturdy and lightweight for kids to move around.
Decided to add extra support between top rail and seat. I envisioned some sitting on the rail while partying so I thought it could use a little strengthening. This is a good build for a beginner.
Porch sectional all done. Just need the fire pit.
Our daughter's room has built-ins on either side of the window. I always wanted a window seat to sandwich in between, but couldn't find one with the right dimensions.....THANK YOU ANA WHITE! I used her Entryway Bench plan and just changed the length and depth to fit the window. I didn't add the side and back supports on top, but I bullnosed all the edges to make it look more finished.
I built this in one afternoon and even used cedar fence planks (left over from my husband's fence project) for the backing....love the extra charm of those planks!
We also had some molding left over, so I worked that in to the bottom for a little extra detail.
Haven't painted it yet....just enjoying it's usability until I decide on a color. It's super durable. My three year old sits on it (to read), stands on it (to spy on the neighbor's cats) and tosses those baskets in and out all day long.
I have come across several tables and chairs for doll furniture and decided I wanted to make something a little different.
I made a basic table and used 64 1 1/8 inch squares.
32/32 painted red/black and the other sides painted pink.
table is pretty popular around town so I decided to test Ebay and my website www.funwithdolls.com and I actually started selling a few.

I love the two tone finish! Great first project! Ana
As Ana says, very comfortable and super easy to build. Her plans are direct and to the point and always a pleasure to build from. I have a couple more to make and my fire pit will be perfect!!! Thanks Ana
Golf Locker. We love it!
This is my very first Ana White build! I needed a table to go into my craft room and stumbled upon Ana White. What an AMAZING site! After browsing and finding many projects i would like to give a whirl i finally decided on this modern craft table. My husband and I have worked together on many different projects and decided we would try this one. The plans were very easy to follow although we did make a few mistakes along the way. I painted it white and finished with several coats of poly. All in all we love it and have a list of other builds to do next.

Modified Subway tile bookcase. 7' tall by 4' wide.
My wife recently started Grad School and needed a better space to study other than the dining room table. She found the plans that she liked on Shanty2Chic and bought the addtional tools needed for the job...she was serious about this project. I made the desk over 3 weekends, a few hours each day. I only diverted from the plans by adding a 1 1/2" spade bit hole in the back to run the power cords through and tacking a surdge protector in between the top beams to help organize and hide the cords.
Took a few tries to get those side rails right just eyeballing the angles but finished product looked great!
Switched 1x10 for 1x4
