I shrunk the size and dumbed down the plans to fit my skill level.

I love what you did! It looks so great! I prefer this style, which is more simplistic than the other. Great work!!

Love how this turned out - the simpler drawers is just as (if not more) beautiful!

Thanks! I wish I would of set up an account before I posted so I could get notifications. I honestly didn't think anyone would notice it :)

I am so excited that people noticed this :) Is there any way of putting this under my account? I didnt make an account until today and I would like to get notifications. I have my project on my facebook page and can prove that I made it with other pictures. Thanks!

I would love to see this in a farm-house (rather than rustic) aesthetic along with drawers under the seats for extra storage. Maybe on casters with a fold up extension on the other side? So many ideas running through my head with this!
Take a deep breath in... then out. Relax as the warm water soothes your muscles. Then look at this freaking amazing end table I made! And this was only my third project ever! Great plans and easy to make.
***Only necessary change to plans was for the decorative Xs. The 2x2s must for the decorative Xs on the small version of the end table must be AT LEAST 25" not 22" as the plans call for. The 22" 2x2 did not reach diagonally (especially when making miter cuts).
I used pre-conditioner on the pine/douglas fir wood before applying the stain.
Made the console table for my daughter. Plans were very detailed, accurate and accompanied with great pics and videos. Only tough time we had was trying to get the right diluted whitewash. Onto the matching coffee table next! Thanks Ana!

One day project (another day for poly)
Extra Wide Console- we will use in our beach cottage. A little rustic paint job and tongue n groove back board. The paint job was a tedious process. First coat was Semi transparent gray stain, next was a thin coat of Kilz primer, then a light sanding and finally a baby blue stain.

I was tired of stooping to do laundry with my front-loading washer. I used the plans for Sausha's washer/dryer pedestals and tweaked them a bit.
we made this for our friends for a housewarming gift. Will definitely make again!
Steps:
1) Cut the boards to the specs below or adjust to your space
2) Kreg Jig the cut boards along each of the sides (length wise and on the ends) for attaching and making a box.
3) Make 3 separate boxes, don't assemble until you move to location. I used 4x4 cedar posts in the corners of the base box to add stability. I used 2x2 pine in the front corners of boxes 2 and 3 for stability. Install these after the dirt has been added so you can hammer in as a stake, attach with screws on front and sides. I created 2 stakes for boxes 2 and 3 and added to the front to prevent bowing when the dirt is added.
Box Dimensions:
1) (base) 70.5" L x 46 W x 4 cedar boards high
2) 70.5" L x 32 W x 2 cedar boards high
3) 70.5" L x 16 W x 2 cedar boards high
They were simple to make and the plan was easy to follow. The only modification I made was adding the 1x3 topper in place of the longer legs sticking out of the top.

Adding these to my to-do list for spring (yes, I plan ahead). I'm thinking of elevating and elongating them to fit around a bay window.
My wife and I are expecting our first child so I wanted to make a toybox for his toys. I liked the plan that i found on this website since the front piece had the cutout to reduce fingers getting pinched. I also added some spring assisted hinges to make help the lid stay up and also close a little softer than just regular hinges.
Hi friends!
Jen Woodhouse from The House of Wood here.
After sharing my new dining room, I got a lot of requests for plans for my dining table, so I’m thrilled to finally deliver. The box joints on the legs add just the right amount of detail to this dining table, don’t you think?
Be sure to tag me @jenwoodhouse if you share photos of your build on social media. I'd love to see it!
You can get all the details for this build on my website jenwoodhouse.com

This was a Christmas gift for my husband, who has resurrected his old turntable. I wanted the stand to be the same height as the chest I had previously refinished to house our stereo and cds. I also wanted to have two shelves for vinyl, so I modified the Channing bookcase to fit.

My husband has been looking for a stand for his turn table and this one looks perfect! Do you mind my asking for the adjusted measurements? I’d love to see if we could make one for him, if you don’t mind sharing. It looks fantastic!

Apologies, I have not checked the site in almost a year. The height of the unit is 37,3/4' tall, the shelf widths are 14" inner width, and the spacing between shelves is 13" between the lower 2 shelves for vinyl, and 5" for the top shelf (for brushes or an occasional CD. Hope that helps.
Modified the junior loft plan to add a house design element and storage stairs, by Amy Mott
This was my first attempt at making anything out of wood. I was thankful for guidance from my husband but I did it myself!!!

Great job! These little side tables are perfect! LOVE!
Thank you so much for sharing a brag post!
Had the perfect space for a little playhouse under the stairs in the basement and it's been our plan for 4 years to do something. Finally, we did something. Wanted depth so I added the roof and portico. Also added cedar shingles that I picked up for $7 at HD. Inside I had extra laminate flooring so I put that down and added beadboard, chair rail and crown molding. There's also a small transom window above the small kitchen area. The kids love the barnhouse doors with old fashioned doorbell, mailslot and window. The bookshelf under the stairs was the final touch. I didn't use any plans from this awesome site but did, as always, get a bunch of tips and inspiration!

Wow! That is awesome!
You really did a great job on that! So imaginative, too. WTG!
Sun, 12/18/2011 - 19:58
That is so stinkin' adorable! Fantastic job. I love everything about it. Your kids (and grandkids) will remember the playhouse under that stairs forever!
Mon, 12/19/2011 - 06:54
Wow, this is too cool! They are going to love love love this! Can't wait to see the kitchen reveal!
Sat, 12/31/2011 - 18:26
You did an amazing job on this. I'm planning a bunkbed with a similar facade. I love how cozy it looks without having to make an actual pitched roof. The shingles are such a nice touch that I may have to copy you! And it's wired for lights; you've really outdone yourself.
Mon, 03/19/2012 - 14:26
Thanks to all of you for the nice comments! Re: the door, I just cut a plain 18x80 door slab ($21 from orange) and trimmed it out. I still need to put the window grille over the open space, and was hoping to find a cool 'speak easy' grille that fits the space.
Thanks again!

This has to be one of the most adorable things I've ever seen! What an awesome idea......how cool is that for the kids??! Love the lighting and the laminate (or is it hardwood) flooring inside. Even the stove is gorgeous! Such fond memories will be made there and remembered forever. Kudos!!

I love this. I was just wondering about the little red kitchen. It looks like something I remember as a little girl back in the 60s. Did you make it or buy it somewhere?
Wed, 12/05/2012 - 15:34
Oh my goodness this is such an inspiration! However, as a beginning tool user, I don't think I could get my finishes so nice. How much experience had you had at this kind of stuff before? Was the area closed in before this project or did you do that too? I've got an open stairway into our basement and would be starting from scratch with ceiling, walls, etc. and have no experience hanging drywall or anything. I think it would take me a year. Great job, and thanks for sharing!

Hi there!
I was just wondering how you made the door for your play house? We're basically stuck at this level in ours right now... ;) Thanks for any tips!!!
I used a modified version of the narrow drawer unit as the foundation for this desk build. I decided to make wooden drawer guides rather than using manufacturer metal guides. I liked the idea of it having a more traditional wood-on-wood feel and saving a few dollars. I love the simplicity of the base cabinet design and the contrast between the painted base and stained top. Thanks yo all who shared their projects for the inspiration!
I needed to find a way to conserve space for 3 children to sleep in a very small home. I used an adapted pattern from Ana White. It turned out perfectly!
Sat, 04/29/2023 - 09:22
WOW, this is great, you fit a lot of sleeping in a small space!
