My husbands second build and it turned out AMAZING! Great plans :D
I recently saw a similar tray on Pinterest and decided to come up with my own version. It's approximately 20 x 12 3/4" and is made from a scrap 1x12 and 1x4s. The removable insert fits 3 pint mason jars for holding silverware and 18oz plastic cups. The handles were purchased from Hobby Lobby.
Tray cut list:
1x12 cut to 18"
2 1x4s @ 11 1/4" (cut to fit short sides)
2 1x4s @ 20" (cut to fit)
- glue and nailed with 1 1/4" brad nails
Removable Insert cut list:
2 1x4s @ 8 1/4" (sides)
1 1x4 @ 12" (top)
1 1x4 (divider) cut to fit, a little less than 10 1/2" (center divider is positioned 3 1/2" from bottom opening)
Glued and nailed with 1 1/4" brad nails
I saw Ana's plans to build an outdoor sectional and thought it was genius for our patio so I decided to make one myself. With a little extra help from my hubs we were able to complete the entire project in about 2 days. It's tough work but was SO worth the effort. We can't wait to have a party and put it to good use, but for now it's perfect for laying around enjoying the beautiful spring weather!

I just came back from your blog post. I love that you used 2 x 4s and it still turned out so great! I was considering the same thing for the same reason (1 x 4s are much more expensive!), and now I have proof that it works!

I love that you used 2x4s and it looks so fantastic! Great job!

These two Number 1 shelves (or maybe it's one Number Eleven shelf!) were built for Christmas gifts. I left the backs off so the wall color shows from behind.
I used a 1x8 10' for each shelf, and adjusted my measurements as instructed. Also, the plans had to be adjusted slightly to make the project fit together properly. I'll put the changes I made in the comment section to help others. This was an extremely simple build and went together quickly. They were great gifts! Thank you for the plans.
Used the plans from grandy sliding door console. Decided to use old fence boards that I got for free and used vintage old wooden windows instead of the sliding door. I also trimmed fence boards so you did not see any raw edges.

I want to make this but was wondering if you have a plan instead of two sliding doors. Do you have a plan for four doors two with windows
My son wanted a way to display his snowboard, so I modified the pallet display rack plans to fit his snowboard. It's constructed with 2x4s for the sides and 1x4s and a 1x2 for everything else. The 2x4s have an angled notch cut out so the snowboard can slide in and out. I built a top and bottom shelf to display pictures, as well as provide storage. The hooks are great for hanging boots, gloves, etc. He loves the way it came out.
Tablesaw workbench. Clears up so much room in the garage when not using the tablesaw!
My family has been needing something like this for a while to keep our toddler out of the trash. Now I can tell people I built it myself. This is my first Ana White project and first time using pocket holes and I have to say I am very happy with how it turned out.

I do not see the plans for this cabinet, what is the link? Thank you. What size trash can is this design to hold

the link seems to work: http://ana-white.com/2011/04/wood-tilt-out-trash-or-recycling-cabinet.
But, if it doesn't work for you just do a search for trash or recycling and you should find the plans.
This bench came together fairly quickly, and was easy to assemble. Clamps are your best friend to get everything level and straight. We plan on next building a farmhouse table for this to go with, but in the meantime, it's in our entryway. I am very happy with how it turned out, thanks to these simple, straightforward plans. Thanks Ana! We used the cheapest whitewood at Home Depot, and to finish I used a pre-stain conditioner, 2 coats of Minwax Special Walnut stain, and 3 coats of Helmsman Spar Urethane because I have 3 young kids and one more on the way... so I know how many spills this will take, & I didn't want any moisture getting under my finish.
Pretty easy plan to follow and very sturdy
I always love warching woodworking but felt so inspired to do it myself when i watched your videos. I decided to make the modern farmhouse table but using stain and paint I already had. While I followed all the instructions, my 1×10 ended up being a 1x12 (incorrectly labeled) and threw the design off a little bit. I had to modify the plan to accommodate the larger size but I love the end result just as much! Thank you so much for sharing your videos and plans.
Thank You for this Headboard Plan. It was very easy. Other than painting it I completed it in less than 3 hours. A nail gun sure saves some time. Everyone loved it. They wanted me to put clear coat on it because it looked really good, but I ended up painting it to match my other bedroom furniture which is Black.

There are no plans for this as I just winged it one week when my son was in between summer camp and school.
The nicest thing about this chest is I used all scrap wood that was just collecting (saw)dust. The cost of the drawer pulls is what will get you, but then without them, the chest would not be as nice.
Using a piece of plywood that was ~24" X 48"
the case is 16hx30wx8d
Cut the ply wood into three equal widths
3@ 8x48 (you will loose a bit due to the kerf of the saw)
from two of the pieces cut off 16" for the sides
from the remaining piece, cut 2@ 16 for the interior dividers between drawers
these will be cut down a bit more so they fit inside the case
rabbit the edges of the top and bottom and two side so they fit together nicely.
Then dado two slots for the interior dividers.
You can dress up the front facing of the plywood with small strips of wood. Use the same size strips to make dividers between drawers, and drawer guides.
For the drawers a simple box with a stylish face will do. Add a bit more class by using a router on the draw face edge with an ogee or small round over.
We recently moved and wanted a larger table. My wife came across this website and it had the table we wanted! I have never built anything before so this was my first attempt at something like this and we are very happy with the results! More builds to come.

Your table looks beautiful! I am getting ready to build the same table tomorrow! What are the dimensions of your table top?
My take on the Farmhouse Table
We have a vent-less gas wall heater, but had no mantel for hanging stockings. Thanks to the new plan, we have the perfect solution! We already had the 2X4s left over from the simple panel bed project, so we only purchased hooks and stains for this.
We shortened the width to accommodate 4 stockings instead of 5 (we cut the 2 cross pieces 9 inches shorter). We also decided to add a large 2X6 cap to mimic a mantel, which really seems to tie it all together much better. We love this and have ideas now on how to make slight changes so it will more easily slide "over"/around the wall heater
(yes, we are not keeping it that close while stockings are hung, so as to not risk catching fire)
Outdoor Sectional
My wife found a birdhouse she liked online, so I did my usual and made one with my own flare and design. This is a two story birdhouse with and feeder on the side. Welcome to the Bird Bed and Breakfast.

This project is an expansion from my project (Pallet Planter Box) posted 2+ years ago. The pallet planters are holding up great but the finish was looking dull after a couple of years in the sun. I decided to refinish them with a darker walnut stain (vs. original red oak). At the same time, I thought it would be a good time to upgrade the planters. To provide flowers for the deck, my wife had been talking about a hanging basket column that could be placed in the ground or in pots. We found something we liked in a catalog; but to me, the price of $86 per column seemed pretty high for something so simple. So, I created this very simple project from 4x4 lumber, end caps, base plates and hangers. I made it a little more complicated by cutting down the 4x4s to match the decorative end cap dimensions but that isn’t really necessary. We are very happy with the results and the cost; it was less than $20/post to make. Now we have hanging baskets and the planters to provide seasonal flowers

Built off the Ana White plans with a few bespoke adjustments.

I have used the farm table plan many many times! My customers always love the classic look the table offers. I decided to switch it up a bit by adding 45 degree angle support brackets to the legs. So far the look has been a hit!
