Nice plan to do. Used an off white paint and antiqued it with stain pen.
This was my first build and I'm really happy with how it turned out!
With our old kitchen crumbling to pieces, I decided to build a new kitchen. I followed several of Ana's cabinet plans to build the entire kitchen(more than I could list at the bottom). I was able to customize the cabinet sizes in order to maximize my kitchen space. I made the doors myself, so I didn't need to worry about standard sizing. It took me about a year from demolition to completion. I had to buy a few new tools, all the wood, appliances, the floor, and countertop, and still spent around $5,000. I learned so much from this project and we all love our new kitchen! Thank you Ana for all of your wonderful plans!
Made per the plans but I made walnut tabletop for it
I still can't believe how great this turned out and looks just like Pottery Barn's! It was our first project but we are now tackling bookcases for our family room... I can't wait to post again!
What new Mom wouldn't want this for a baby shower gift!!! Easy build
This farmhouse table I built is 40x84 and has 9" extensions on each end for a total of 102." I opted to go with 2x4 extensions instead of 2x2s for a durable look and feel!
This was my first bench build and I’m happy with the way it turned out! I adjusted the plans to account for wood movement of the table top using mortise and tenon joinery and draw board pins on the bread board ends. Also edge glued the table top boards and used z-clips to attach the bench top.
I finally talked my husband into helping me whip this thing up. It didn't take very long to put it together, but it did take a long time for me to figure out a finish I would like. I used the steel wool/vinegar and black tea stain, but it ended up too dark, nearly black. So I sanded and sanded and applied a wood stain on top of it. It looks great!
I am a Block Printer and Screenprinter, as well as indulging in other projects. I needed a fairly large table that would allow me to print fabric yardage fairly easily, as well as be able to layout the fabric to cut. I decided to build this table that I had seen on a couple of different sites. There was not much instruction on either site, but it was fairly easy, and I was able to figure it out pretty easily.
I wrote a more detailed blog post on my blog with details as well as what I learned while building this table.
I built this for my adult daughter’s Christmas present. I modified the plan to have three drawers instead of the cubby. I also tapered the bottom of the legs. I added a back piece to hold a mirror. I also added door knobs to the back for necklaces.
The top and the back board are both 4 boards glued and clamped together. I finished the edges of the top, drawer fronts, and the back board with an ogee router bit.
We have a 2′x4′ metal furnace cover that takes up a big portion of our dining room wall. To say it is an eye sore would be an understatement! We both love chalkboards, so I decided to make a cover out of chalkboard. Since it still needs to function as a furnace I made a cutout where the vent is. I covered that portion with a tin sheet. It looks so much better!
Learn how to make your own chalkboard paint in any color!
We started this project on a Sunday and finished Tuesday. We did make the legs taller to fit under our tv, so we also needed to adjust the front and back 2x4 support to be a little taller.
other than that, we followed the plans. I stained the top with Rustoleyum Dark Walnut and the bottom is spray painted, painted and distressed using the Shanty 2 Chic ideas.
LOVE this table! It was exactly what I wanted! Now, to find 2 small lamps to sit on either side. :)
Made this dresser for my newest Grand daughter. Turned out pretty nice. A few mistakes for sure!!! But I am proud and its functional. Worked on it off and on for a month.

Thank you for all the plans. I started wood working a year ago and I am still learning.
Recently found the plans and this is what I came up with
The plans are so easy to follow! They are a great jumping off point for customizing the coop for your own needs! We added a run door, ladder support, insulated floor and wall, removable window, and a loft door. The girls LOVE it!
Thank you for all the diagrams on this website, this project could not have been completed without these. The entire project took a month worth of weekends. I used 2 sheets of 3/4" Birch plywood, 2x12x10 Southern Yellow Pine (rip to 4" strips), and 1x8x10 Ponderosa Pine for the roof and slats. Our 3 year old loves the bed and could not wait to use it. All month he has been asking about his new room, normally he does not like change but he loved this bed.
I've made numerous modern Adirondack Chairs using Ana White's design. The most often asked question is "does it come in different sizes." So I scaled the chair by 80%. The "mini" is perfect for children up to the age of 10 or as lawn decoration. Email me at [email protected] for a copy of the "mini" step-by-step plans.
This was made from reclaimed wood from various building around the DC area.
