I made this couch and chairs using Anna's instructions. I think they turned out nice.

Just finished these for my 3 yr old twins, and they love them! Took me about 5-6 hours of work, including painting/drying time. I definitely recommend spray painting the parts before assembling to get all edges sealed.

I built this arbor using the plans you provided (http://www.ana-white.com/2014/06/plans/outdoor-bench-arbor). Finish it just in time for my wifes birthday. She absolutely loved it. Thank you!

My cousin recently got married and wanted a beer wall at her wedding. I quickly searched Ana's site for the perfect plan and chose the Tall Panel Headboard for my starting point. With a few modifications it became a beer wall in no time at all. I love how Ana's plans can be easily modified to make a totally different project.

No fancy wood was used here. Just regular wood from the big box store. A jockey box was attached to the back side of the wall. It worked awesome!

Since I discovered this site in January, I've made close to 30 items from her plans. I'm ridiculously addicted and not just with Ana's site but also with her blog friends. For Valentine's Day I asked for a Air Strike gun and got it. It was better than jewelry and chocolates! I'm well on my way to collecting my own tools and learning how to save money by making it myself. Oh, and I can't even begin to tell you how impressed everyone is with my finished products.

Took the plans from Ana white and made my own twist to it! Came out awesome and the person loved it that I made it for! Kona stain on table top and Navajo white on the bottom. Did the same for benches and chairs to match! Thanks for the great instructions! 

This is my first build from this site! I used 6" boards to give the siding a plank look rather than using plywood. To make the height work, I used 8" boards for both the top and bottom planks. I also made the door a little taller. Other than that, I followed this plan step-by-step. It was very easy to follow and I really enjoyed making this bed. My daughter (and my sons) really enjoy it!

This was a lot of fun to do. Super easy and really transformed my bedroom. I love it.

I changed the dimensions to make it a little smaller to fit the front of my house. My husband and I now spend our evenings sitting there drinking tea and enjoying the nice weather.

I spent close to $60 and ordered 3 cushions from target for $8.99 each.

Start from scratch and completed my first Poker Table.

We had been looking for a dining table for our new house that is being built. The dining area is a little small and we needed to find a 60 inch table. However, we were unable to find one that we liked at that size. I found plans for this table through pinterest and thought it would be a lot of fun to try. Plus, we knew that if worked out, then we would be saving a ton of money. The plans call for a much longer table, so my husband and dad reworked the plans to make it fit our space. To go with it we bought 4 Lyle Side Chairs from Crate and Barrel. We love how it turned out and we can't wait to see it in our new house in a couple months!!

Not as easy as everyone else said online. I had never used a kreg jig and it takes a bit more practice than I had patience for. one thing to note is the instructions screw lengths are for if you are NOT using a kreg. If you use a kreg, use the screw lengths they suggest. I used a deck stain and purchased the cushions on sale at Ikea ($22.50 per cushion)

I built this bed to replace one of the kids twin bed.  I wanted a solid wooden bed that would be around for a while and I did not wanted to pay Thousands of dollars.

Your beautiful Fancy X farmhouse table. We wanted to seat 8. Used your plan with the top idea from Hint of Home. We used cedar tongue and groove for the top. We are so pleased with it! Now for chairs!

This was a very nice and easy project. I probably could have finished in one day if it had not been 105 degrees outside! I recommend these plans to anybody who knows how to use a saw. I also used all screws instead of nails. Wood- Grade II Pine, purchased from Lowe's FInish- One coat Minwax Dark Walnut oil based stain One Coat Minwax Polyshades Mission Oak After the Polyshades dried, I went over the whole piece with steel wool to smooth it out.
