This plan from Ana's site fit the bill perfectly for the vanity in our guest bathroom. Only a short four years after building our home, our guest bath finally has a functioning sink vanity! We also added a Kraus brand faucet and vessel sink, as well as tiling the back wall and installing faux board and batten. The estimated cost is for the entire bathroom project.
Thank you for the plans!

Looks like the perfect spot for some chairs, they look amazing! Thanks for sharing~
Rustic Sideboard Project.
We had so much fun doing this! Took about 3 weeks with significant effort.
We only made it with the center drawer. The cabinets were enlarged on the outside to account for this.
We didn't tack the backing on. We routed in 1/4 inch in the back to inset the entire back. Very simple and easy.
The finish was fantastic. We did the following (Sanding heavily between each step):
-Minwax Provincial Stain
-Miss Mustard Seed Luckets Green (1 coat)
-Minwax Furniture wax.
We used the same hardware as on the website. Lowe's and Home Depot don't care a lot of inset hinges and I was concerned about ordering on line.
The plans were great and the project came out fantastic. Thanks for the plans and guidance!

This turned out great! It's one of my favorite plans on Ana's site.
Thank You Ana White for posting the plans to make this great project! Mine is a little different without the "X" on the sides....maybe mine should be rustic ( / ) consule....
This one is from last year but one of my favourite pieces we have built at Naughty Timber Rustic Creations. Thanks for the plans Ana White!

I had just had a bad experience with a furniture company that sent me the wrong table after I had waited for many weeks for it. I was so exasperated I decided I would make my own from your instructions. I am a 62 yo woman and I had a blast making it. I am now planning to make a bedroom set next!!!

That is absolutely beautiful, so much better than anything you could have bought in a store!
I finished these last weekend and finally took pictures.
I found 44 5' cedar pickets on craigslist for $30 and built these raised beds. I built them according to Ana's instructions except I made them bigger (4'x8'). Since my boards were 5' long I couldn't span the entire length and went with a brickwork style overlap so there wasn't one seam in the center or a weird off-center seam. And, of course, I blogged about it.
The closet had a divider when I moved in. I removed that. It opened up the room nicely. I modified the master bedroom closet plans just a bit to fit my needs and space. The closet divider had to first be removed which opened up the room nicely.
It is roughly 94 inches wide, 18 deep, and approximately 84 inches tall.
I used Soft-Close drawer slides. I also installed motion lights under the top to both add a touch of something special and simply because it was kind of dark with the floor being black wood and the closet system stained black. I sanded it to 400 grit smooth by hand. It soaked up over 4 coats of minwax polyshades ( black) applied with a brush and then rubbed smooth with a soft cloth.
We have a limited amount of counter space in our kitchen, while also having a large open space that is unused. We've always planned on including an island once we renovate, but we didn't want to wait. We decided to build a butcher block-style island with open shelving underneath - a simple design that would give us all the counter space we needed and some additional storage space.
We bought a premade bamboo tabletop, as well as 4x4 cedar posts for the legs, 2x4s for the framework, and 1x2 slats for the shelf.
You can see all of the details of how we built it in the blog post, but here are a few of the features:
- an interior framework that connects to the tabletop and outer framework so that no screws are visible on the outside
- countersunk GRK structural screws used to attach the legs htat look like carriage bolts
-feet are angle cut so that floor is less likely to be scratched if the island is moved
We're really proud of this build and are enjoying having so much extra counter space. It's amazing what you can get done in a weekend!
Change the plans a little bit very happy how they turned out
I got lucky with this one. Most everything came from a broken dining room table that i got for free. The legs are old staircase spindles from a salvage shop that i got for 8 dollars. So 8 dollars plus the spray paint put me at about 20 dollars for this. Not bad.

For this week's woodworking project I'm building a Rustic Cooler Box from used Pallets. The project was a lot of fun to do and pretty simple! By just using some old Pallets that were free I was able to build something that will get a lot of use. Plus, by using the Pallets I think it turned out really cool looking!

Awesome way of doing a pallet cooler. Keeping the cost minimal your way of finishing it was really good. Personalizing such coolers would be interesting!
My first wood working mallet!

I have one of these from when my husband was in wood shop as a kid! Also a pencil holder he made in school on the drill press, I've used it on my desk for 35 years! :)

I've been thinking about getting a wooden mallet for a bit now. Currently I just use my rubber mallet, in the rare instance I need a mallet, but being so soft, gets quite a bit of wear and tear. The video is a great!
This is my take on the classic Oliver String Puzzle. It was built from scrap wood, a ring from a previous project, purchased wood beads and rope.
The goal is to remove the ring from the puzzle. My kids and wife found it quite challenging. I would rate the skill level at 3 out 5. If you can't figure it out from the pictures, refer to the video.

Here is how the clubhouse I built turned out! Still need to install trim, paint, and a do few other finishing touches.
This table was built using the plans for the "Simple, Cheap and Easy Console Table". I adjusted the size (made it shorter and wider) and added shelves. I made it with oak, so it wasn't cheap, but it goes better with the rest of our furniture.
Outdoor sectional made using Georgia M's 2x4 modifications. Found some nice studs at Home Depot that worked great. Filled in any knot holes with stainable wood filler, and after sanding they looked like much more expensive lumber. Used Kreg 2.5" blue-coat outdoor screws and chestnut brown decking stain. Cushions are from Wal-Mart online clearance... Went to find the link, but they're all sold out. Looks like I lucked out!
this was a fun build had to tweak the plans a little but turned out great!
