I used a combination of the farmhouse table and the tryde coffee table (but on a larger scale). I don't have a Kreg drill or any of that and so I just screwed from the top side down. Since I knew the screws would show, I decided to take a platinum/shiny silver Sharpie to color over the screw heads to make them stand out.
The legs were a 2x4s glued and screwed together. Can't find any untreated 4x4 at the local Lowes or Home Depot, so this was my next best option.
I used a few coats of Rustoleum Dark Walnut and then Rustoleum Semi-Gloss poly.
I have since made a new bench with the same main design, but just to a small scale. Also, I did it opposite of the top. The table is 2x4 with 2x6 breadboard ends. The bench is 2x6 with 2x4 breadboard ends.

It is just regular whitewood 2x4s glued and screwed together. Then I just used wood filler to make it look llike a 4x4.
This coffee table was my first woodworking project ever. I followed the plans exactly but left the X off each end. They seemed a little daunting for the first time around, plus I like it without them better. Great plans and great result!
This was a great build, awesome project for my girlfriend. Very fun and super satisfying especially at paint and stain stage! Everyone loves it. Grateful for the plans.
Took me about a week. Edge banded my face and spackled the sides. My drawers were installed with a dado. Everything else was pocket screwed and glued.
Definitely recommend.

This was the first furniture building project for my husband and me. We changed the table height to 28 inches instead of 24 and used plywood for the top, like Jenn did in her post. It took us a little longer than we thought since we are not experts (yet!), but we made it work and love how it turned out! This is such a classic and stylish table. Perfect for a beginning project!
First project made from scratch....took me a while but glad it is finished! Will try to do one more of a larger size for my other dog.
Seen here is my first personal wood working project. I loved the two tone look of this piece as the white really complements and makes the antique walnut stained drawer fronts pop! While the dresser turned out really well considering it being my first build, I learned a lot of lessons. I had a lot of challenges because like every new wood worker, you likely wont have all the right tools for the task at hand. I built this dresser with a circular saw, Kreg jig tool, a miter saw and Wagner spray gun. With these limitation, most task took 2x-3x longer than it normally would. In the end, I was pleased with the outcome.
Built this 2x4 deck furniture set. Stained in espresso color.

Jenny from www.birdsandsoap.com became my hero when I saw her sweet pea garden bunk bed plans on here! I love these storage stairs and everything else about the bed. I decided to build the whole works. Here are the storage stairs. I added the last couple photos to show what my girls and I did with the scraps from the cut out hearts. We made a fishing game out of it... used screws in the "fish" to make them magnetic and we just used fridge magnets for the end of the fishing pole. Pretty fun! We'll get to making more fish and painting them later... right now I gotta finish this awesome bed house! (I just wanted to share that to let everyone know how creative I can be... normally I'm just a big style biter off ana white and Jenny from birds and soap and Pinterest lol... I bet if you went in my house right after Jennys house they would look pretty identical. I also made her version of the farmhouse storage bed, what can I say? She's got good taste!) YEAH!

Where did you find the plans for the stairs? I can't find them on this website or the Birds and Soap website.

Hope that helps. Good Luck!
First project I have done by Ana White.
Hello everyone, Happy Holidays. I know so many of you are very busy getting ready for Thanksgiving, I would like to say I am so grateful you took a moment out of your busy time to visit me. Thank You.
I also have been very busy. This year my husband challenged me to get our big table done before Thanksgiving. He didn’t think I could do it. Ha Ha, I showed him, and two additional chairs also.
This table is gorgeous, but I cannot take all the credit. This design comes from Ana White.
This was my first time DIYing furniture, so I definitely came up with a very easy design!
The dimensions for this sofa are modern as it sits low to the ground and has a squarish appearance.

Tara and I built this bed over multiple weekends, between vacationing, gardening, and cleaning up the yard from a massive windstorm. We used unplaned cedar from a local woodlot for the posts so had to adjust the spacing. Also built up our own frame for our Ikea rubber mattress using 2x2's we ripped. The frame is modular with large lag bolts holding the frame to the footboard and carriage bolts for the frame/headboard connection. Which is good because the bed is HEAVY and the frame needed to be hauled up the back deck by rope and 3 people. Thank you so much for the design and inspiration, Ana and community!
This was fast and easy, and it is so useful. Thank you for the plans!
This was a scaled down version of the Fancy X Table. Dimensions are 19.25" deep, 30" high and 55" long. I eliminated the cross bases because I wanted to store baskets underneath. The sheet metal was cut to size and aged by a local guy for $50. Fun project!!
I loved the simplicity of the loft bed. My daughter wanted it to be like a house so I built a wall. This is my first project ever using any power tools. I know it's not perfect but the joy if knowing that I did this all by myself with no help from my husband is priceless. It literally took me a day to cut the wood and put it together however since I am in no way a painter painting it took me a little over a week between priming the wood and getting the color just as my ever so picky 5 year old liked between painting the walls in her room at the same time.
Awesome project and my son couldn't be happier.
Living in a small apartment in NYC, I had to rent the mitre saw from Home Depot ($50 for the day) and lug it and all the lumber up the flights of stairs. Other than that, the project was a breeze and took two days, by myself, from start to finish. I added some metal L brackets at some of the load bearing joints for extra support. Also used a 2x4 as the mattress rest (instead of a 2x2) and added another 2x4 as a center beam to support the mattress.
All that's left is painting and decorating, either with a curtain or plywood, depending on what my son wants. Thanks for the plans!!

I love this! I am planning to build this bed, stain it and use the same brackets as industrial accents. I love that you added the basketball hoop to the front. I wondered where we'd hang ours. Great job!
A slight modification from Ana's original plans, but with the same character and feel. I did not include the footboard, at least not yet, and we wanted reading lights mounted and wired to the headboard. I bought track lighting fixtures, mainly because they were the size we were looking for. I ran each light to individual switches on each side of the bed posts and then concealed the wiring in routed-out board on the back and down the one post to a cord. I also subbed out the 50w halogen bulbs (hot!) for 35w LEDs, which is the perfect amount of light and cool to the touch. I did alternating width boards and then stained the edges of all the exposed wood with an ebony dark stain. Once dried, I painted an antique white, distressed with sanding along the edges, exposing the stain, and then sealed with a light brown wax creme finish to give it a little more character. A simple, solid and heavy project that should last for decades.
I had fun doing this project. I dont have a miter saw but made happen with my circular saw. Desks are 48 in long and 24 in wide,I used a bookcase shelving panel for the top of the desk. I made this for my 8 and 4 yrs old kids.

These are beautiful! Impressive that you were able to do such a great job without a miter saw!
