Really cute and simple project. I left one stained for the rustic bathroom and painted two white for the beach themed living room.
My wife and I were expecting two grandbabies (a boy and a girl) in the Fall (about 2 to 4 weeks apart). We were asked by one of our Daughter's-In Law to make a changing table. We decided to do it for both grandbabies. These photos represent the result of the inspiration we got from Ana White's changing table design on her website. We liked the basic design but wanted it to have a shiplap look. We also wanted the top drawer to be a full drawer across the top and the middle shelf to be a pull out shelf with a drawer front. We were ecstatic with how they turned out, and so were the parents!

Congratulations on two grandbabies! Love the color choices, wonderful job grandma and grandpa:)
This is my very first project, and I couldn't be more excited! It started with a need for a smaller kitchen table, and after stumbling across Ana's site, I think I will be building many more things for my house now!
My husband and I spend a few hours on this. It was our first furniture project and we made our first pocket holes yesterday! We did a platform bed with slats to avoid a box spring. We used Douglas fir and left it natural, just with a clear poly coating. We love it and are addicted to making our own furniture!
I followed Ana's plans http://ana-white.com/2012/06/plans/fancy-x-farmhouse-table Total cost for me was $150 thats lumber,screws and stain. Total time for me was approx 6 hours and it was most time consuming for the legs. I build this in my yard as I don't have a shop. I put my old table saw on a pallet and my chop saw on the table saw. I altered a couple pieces to make the look different and bulkier for me. This is going to make an excellent gift. I just need to put a finish on it and seal it. Oh and I made mine from spruce. *Update* So we finally were able to put a finish on it with a 24 hour window of no rain. We used 2 coats Behr Cedar stain. It is an all in 1 and turned out beautiful.
*Note*
Not pictured, but I did add a strip of wood under each end to pull the board ends flush with one another. I used 2 1x2's with ends cut at 45 degrees. Length was cut to fit. This isn't something that was in the build plans, but it was very hot out when I was building this and the boards were starting to run up and down if you can see that in the photos.
I went this up this afternoon after seeing the plans. It's only 3 feet long because I only had one board that was salvaged from a friends garage. I could not bring myself to use another piece of lumber I went this up this afternoon after seeing the plans.

I love this storage bench! I modified the cut sizes to make it a coffee table also. I made it shorter and thinner. Now I can put my feet up on it, put a drink on it, and store some toys or garden tools in it! You can check out modifications by clicking here. Thank you Ana for the great plans!
So nice and tidy in the garage now!

Love the fun two tone finish, it looks amazing! Thank you so much for sharing.
Built this table to have plenty of room for all the kids and a few family members for holidays
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!
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

Beautiful
I love this table! Forget the patio, I'm seeing this inside my dinning room.
