This is my very first project. This is a cross between the Rustic X console and the Tryde media console. I liked the top of the Tryde, but the ease of the Rustic X.
I painted the trim in slightly off-white, the sides, top and shelf are done in a satin polyurethane.
I was amazed at how easy this was to make following your plans. The hardest part was getting my husband to let me use the power tools (most of which I have either bought for him as gifts or I owned before we got married). He says, "I thought you were afraid of the table saw?" Only when you use it, dear!
This took a day to build, and then forever to finish (it was like waiting for paint to dry ;)
Thank you for all of the amazing plans you have on this site. You may just be my new hero Ana!
Next up, a dining room table for my daughter, then the farmhouse bed for the other daughter. With a few tools, a little patience and couple of bags of O negative blood on standby, there is nothing you can't DIY. (I kid, I hurt myself with hand tools, never power tools).

reclaimed oak desk
This is so awesome! Beautiful job. Where did you get the legs? And how did you attach the shelf?

Check out Etsy. You can find four legs for around $50-$60. The legs come with a mounting plate with screw holes.
