Okay, don't mind the husband and the pooch in the background there! I fell in love with the Pottery Barn version of this table (actually, I've fallen in love with everything from Pottery Barn, if we're being honest here), so I've been wanting to make this coffee table for quite awhile. I found the legs on ebay for a really low price, so I splurged and bought premium 5/4" thick pine planks for the table top to make it look more substantial. This table was so easy to assemble using pocket holes. My husband and I both love how it turned out!

This was my first project and we think it turned out great..Thank you for sharing your plans and showing that anyone can do this.

I'm trying to revamp our family "launch pad" in time for the start of school and was hoping to have a box for each kid to drop off their school forms and stuff. The "numbered cubbies on the wall" plan is just not practical for us -- I don't need a lot of little cubbies, just a few big ones! So I modified it to work for us. The letters are each of my boys' initials.

Also, I used scrap wood and leftover paint. So basically the cost was almost nothing, just a few nails and some wood glue.

I made this for my father for Father's Day. I wanted to do a grilling prep table with a built in cooler. The cooler part is not really just for drinks but also a place to store barbeque utensils while in use.

Height is 36 inches. Made out of 2x6s, 1x4s, and 4x4s. Because the table is so short, the planter slides in and out from the side underneath the table top. I had cut the top before buying the planter which lead me to do a few changes to my initial design on the fly.

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.

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 my first big project from Ana's website. It was definitely worth it.

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.

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 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.

Flip down tray added for computer keyboard.

Porch sectional all done. Just need the fire pit.

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.

First attempt. Used Vaseline to distress corrners and shelves. 

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.
