We made this sewing/craft table by combining plans from the modular office. It was a big job but SO worth it! We love your plans and use them all the time!

Added an X on the sides and a mitered 3 inch top frame.  Added some color to make it fun and tropical for the lanai.

Second project...I've got the bug! Outdoor bench!

After a couple years out of bodybuilding because of a bad injury, I decided I really needed a new hobby. I've always been impressed with woodwork but it just seemed out of my reach. I wanted a porch swing and saw these plans and though, "even if I mess up it'll only cost me a couple hundred dollars". I bought the kreg jig kit and some lumber and thankfully have all the other tools I need. This only took me a few hours to build and it was so easy and a really good time. I watched a few you tube videos with both ana and Jeff devlin from Kreg Tools and it really prepared me. The job was fun and I plan on going back to the lumber store this week just to build more stuff I probably don't need lol.

Thank you Anna for providing the template plans for this project. My wife had a mirror leaning on the wall in our bedroom that rarely got used and jewelry all over the dresser. So thanks to you I was able to turn this cheap mirror into useful storage and organize her jewelry.  Thanks! 

This is my second project. (My first was the canopy doll bed.) It just took a couple of days to get it all cut, put together and sanded. This was my first time with the Kreg Jig and I loved using it. So awesome.

Heavy Duty, from reclaimed deck boards!

Especially with having to store active military gear, the huge gorilla trunks, and conveniently having a huge pile of 2x6's from disassembling a small deck . . Worked out perfectly!

Also, because they are heavy and tall, we did anchor them to the wall!

(I personally want to figure out how to add a sliding ladder, haha)

I was worried about my 13 month old Grandson getting burned by the glass on our gas log fireplace. And I could not find a screen that was not metal and was sturdy enough that I felt comfortable using. So, I did some measuring and built my own to match our existing mantle and frame around the fireplace. Made my own 2x2s for the rail as I could not find any straight enough and "knot free". My wife was a little hesitant when I told her I was going to buld something because I am not the fastest builder as I just do it hwne I get time and feel like it but, this only took a couple of weeks including the painting and staining. I can take it apart in 3 pieces for the summer and store it in the garage.

I made this simple Bunk bed shelf so all the stuff my son stored on the headboard, wouldn't keep falling off. It was easy to make and I painted it while working on another project. and I used spray paint to get the orange on a little easier!

this.was my first attempt at making furniture. Using Ana's plans.were straightforward and couldnt have done without them. thanks Ana!

Thank you for the plans!  Love the shelves!
