Window Pane-style Collage

I've been seeing a lot of window panes turned photo frame and really liked the look. We didn't have any extra panes around but I did have a bunch of scrap pieces of 3/4 inch plywood so I decided to make my own!

We built our coffee table to match our farmhouse entry table! I love the tutorials from Ana White! We made changes to the bottom shelf and used 2x2 slats instead of the 1x12 pieces. Also changed the dimensions so it measures about 56x34 (kept the height the same). It complements our living room perfectly! I can't wait to built end tables next!
A friend wanted a T-shaped desk, but I couldn’t find plans for it, so I was inspired by these plans to build this!

Do you have plans for this desk? I want to make the t shaped desk and I have been looking for something like this. I love how you modified it
I used the Clara Table design then decided to make the table top into a lego table. I bought (4) Lego Plates from Target at $15 each. Then super glued the Lego Plates onto the tabletop.
*** Note- Make sure that the spacing between Lego Plates is correct. I used different Lego's to connect the different plates to make sure that the spacing was correct.
Thanks for the ideas Ana!
i was able to rescue a few doors out of a roughly 140 year old house. so the idea of a head and footboard came to mind. the headboard is oak was the front door, and the footboard is pine from bedroom. these were not taken apart just sanded cut to length and finished. now everyone around me wants a pair.
I really didn't want to need to feed/water the chickens too much, but at the same time only having four didn't really necessitate a massive system. I found this video for a feeder (https://youtu.be/pzW4YytXYaQ ), and then bought some sideways chicken nipples off of amazon and <~$20 later it was done. I've since gone in and made the street elbows for the feeder a little longer than he recommends, which has made them truly zero waste.
Also, a couple of good wheels from Tractor Supply (https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/titan-casters-4-in-rigid-poly…) on the one side and some handles on the other and boom, chicken tractor.
Finally, I noticed one person that had extended the rungs on the ramp out... my chickens love that and are on them almost all the time. Lastly, I put a quick 1x2 at the top of the ramp to keep the chips from spilling when I move it, but they really like roosting there, now.
This table was very easy to build and a lot of credit has to be given to how in depth the plans were! So much detail.
I wish my 2x4’s weren’t twisted because now I have to shim one side so it doesn’t rock but that’s all on me lol.
Great plans and I plan on making more of these! Thanks!
I really enjoyed building this headboard. I had all of the wood cut at Home Depot saving some time. Putting the headboard together was pretty simple. First I applied wood conditioner then I used an expresso stain. I then sanded everything and used Rustoleum satin fossil colored spray paint. After the paint dried, I sanded again and applied Minwax express color in walnut. That was it! I love how this turned out.

This is gorgeous! I wanted to ask if you used pocket hole screws or not? The product list calls for them, but never saw them mentioned in the actual plans. Thank you!
A great plan that was so easy to follow! My hubby and I had a great time building this, even though it took us about a year from start to finish, actual work time on this project was not huge. The Kreg jig was brilliant and made everything so easy.

This is beautiful! I love the picture of your cat. :)
We started building farm tables just recently and used the great plans from the Ana White site along with all the helpful other brag posts. The main construction of the table was based on the plans from here: www.ana-white.com/2012/11/plans/farmhouse-table-updated-pocket-hole-plans along with some other modifications made along the way. The table turned out great and just wanted to give thanks for the plans and this community.
We built more than just the picture uploaded if you want to see more versions/sizez you can check them out here: http://backyardcedarsevents.com/gallery/
Thanks for the great DIY website - the projects and plans here are great for everything!
Our first build, all of the lumber was sourced from our land, milers on our sawmill and planed here. White pine frame, poplar seating. Great plans Ana! It was so nice to have success on our first furniture piece!!
First time visitor. I recently built this modified 48" Turned Leg Vanity for my wife.
We expanded it to a 62" double sink with drawers in the middle and opening below the sinks.
Thanks for the great site Anna.

This looks great! I am going to work on one very similar and use this sink http://www.us.kohler.com/us/Ceramic-Impressions™-61-rectangular-double-bowl-vanity-top-bathroom-sink,-single-faucet-hole/productDetail/Styles-of-Bathroom-Sinks/1006992.htm?categoryId=651428&skuId=1006846&hash=id%3Dfilters%26chk-183%3D183%26startIndex%3D20%26scrollTop%3D411
Did you save your plans for this size vanity?

Gwphoto, do you have plans for this project that you would share? Have been wanting to modify this 48" vanity just as you did. Thanks so much!

Hi Schuzog, looks like I can't find the plans on my computer. Sorry.

I had a very good time building this entertainment center. I've received many compliments on the outcome.
A coworker wanted bunk beds to give her daughter for Christmas for her American Girl Dolls and and asked me to build some. She was happy with the result
Hi all,
Joining a large group who have already done this coffee table. Hope you like it.
Fun project!
Finally found the perfect table for my foyer! Only possible because of this site... Thanks Ana! The step by step instructions and detailed illustrations were sooo easy to follow. I finished the table in a day and a half. The drawers on the other hand gave me a run for my money. I am positive that was due to my less than perfect circular saw skills! Which are improving by the way:) Everyone loves the table and are pretty impressed with my (as my 8 yr old would say) "mad skillz"!
I built this media console from 100% reclaimed shipping pallet wood. I added 4" steel hairpin legs which I thought went well with the rustic appearance of the wood. The shelves that are in place are removable. Although this is not built from one of Ana's plans I really enjoyed working with reclaimed wood and I hope this post will inspire others to do the same.

Since my daughter turned 5, she has joined the ranks of those children (un)fortunate enough to have 2 bedrooms to furnish. In approaching her 6th birthday I asked her mother if there was anything she needed for her new room at her house, and she suggested a new table to do colouring/craft etc at. I was actually searching to buy a table and chairs, and was decidedly underwhelmed by the selection and the quality/cost ratio on offer.
Thankfully I stumbled across the plans for the Clara Table, and it was precisely what I was after. I have made various tables before, for garden and dining, and have always gone with reclaimed wood and a rustic style, but for this I did just use the plans as-is, and I bought new pine timber purely for the convenience of it.
The table is simple to build, I already had a pocket hole jig, and the table itself took about 90minutes to build. Most of this time was spent sanding off the foaming glue I decided to use between the planks used for the top. If you are considering using this sort of glue, or indeed any glue, I'd say it isn't necessary. I had neverade a table top of this construction before, and went for the belt and braces approach. In my opinion it's totally unnecessary, doesn't add much security, but adds plenty of time to the project. If you really want, I'd go for bog standard wood glue, but by the time you screw it onto the legs, it's solid as a rock anyway.
It is mentioned to set the aprons back a way, to avoid splitting the legs. I did this, by using an off-cut of the 3x1 as a spacer on the face of the aprons as I screwed them in. Worked a treat, set the aprons back, but not all the way, and gives the illusion of a little more heft to the dimensions.
I then painted the top with chalk based emulsion, distressed and did the signwriting to personalise it, finished it with wax and my daughter was more delighted than I ever thought any child could be by having a table daddy made for her birthday, and at a fraction of the cost of a shop bought one of far lower quality.
Am.so.pleased I stayed on this website, and have already lined up the matching chairs for her as my next project!
Thank you for inspiring me to get back to making things again...it's been a while!
The timber cost me about £20, and the biggest expense was all the paint tester pots for the top!
