Lovely easy to follow plans even if i had to change all measurements into metric and wood just slightly different size. Really happy how it turned out

Two projects that I recently built for my wife and my daughter. My wife wanted a tea bar and a beach vibe, my daughter wanted an outdoor couch so it is made out of cedar. They both loved them.

My one year old needed a step to reach a little higher in his and his brother's "Just My Size" John Deere themed closet so my boys and I set to work. We used Ana's "Easy Vintage Step stool" plan for inspiration but modified it to make use of the scrap wood from an old dresser. My three year old took every screw out of the old dresser all by himself and they both helped assemble the stool. They love it that much more having had a hand in the build. Thanks Ana for inspiring me to take on a hobby my boys and I can enjoy together!
Perfect for for my living room

This was a BIG project for me. I learned a lot along the way. I modified the plans from the fillman storage bed (twin size to queen size). For the most part the main changes I made were in the Headboard and footboard. I added the width to make them queen size. The bases for the drawers I kept the same size for the most part. I have all of my dimensions and notes written down and will come back and add those.
I shortened the height of both the headboard and footboard by a couple of inches which enabled me to get them both built using 1 sheet of wood. I used a combination of birch hardwood and pine.
This was my first time building anything with drawers... 12 drawers was a bit daunting too! But with much sweat and love I worked thru this. This was built for my son and he loves it! I did add knobs to the drawers and need to update a picture!
Overall I spent about $200 on my wood. $100 on the drawer slides. and I got 25 wood knobs that I stained to match online for about $1 each.
My son loved the bed. I did not permenately attach all the bed supports instead did the top middle and end pieces. the others just lay in place and can be removed easily and large totes can be stored beneath.
My son was moved into the bonus room and as you can see the ceilings are low. This bed eliminated the need for a dresser and as a bonus no toys can get under it!
I have more pix on my blog.
I spent about 10 days from start to finish. a few of those days I worked a lot, in between I had to tend to 3 kids and life and rest my sore arms LOL

I am also wondering if you have gotten a chance to put up your dimentions for the queen bed. I would love to make one of these.

I would like the plan for the Fillman storage bed
Awesome sandbox !!
I’ve made a couple of these . One thing to save you money that I switched to on my second one is making the frame from 2x material vs 1x. Looks better too and is more sturdy .
Finally have a lawn chair that won't blow away in the MatSu Valley wind.
I built this bar for my mom to use i her dining room. I altered the plans for the X Style Desk to build this at bar height. This was my first time distressing anything and was pleased with the outcome. i used one coat of Minwax Dark Walnut stain and two coats of Minwax clear satin finish. White shellac Based primer, brown egg shell paint and Green egg shell paint for the base and sanded for the distressed look. I used dimensional pine lumber from the home center to build this with.
It's a Friyay! and we have a bunch of used pallets at work the boss is wanting to get rid of. Well he is on vacay so ....
We (me and my office manager) had to alter the directions a bit but the end result is great. This was our first project and tools were very limited. Even so its a win win and we will be making more. Thank you Ana!
We built our patio furniture with your outdoor chair and couch plans! Thank you thank you!

I Love this plan! I had to modify mine a little form Ana's because the reclaimed wood I got was already cut in small pieces. I love how it turned out! I ended up giving it as a gift and made several more for the same purpose. You can see those on my blog!
Thanks Ana for another awesome plan!
This was my second project from Ana White and it turned out just as well as the Tryde Side Tables. The finish used was exactly the same as the side tables; however, just regular Cedar was used instead of Red Oak.
This was a fairly easy build, but the hardware was a challenge. Very exciting that it actually worked. Followed hardware instructions linked in comments
Indoor playhouse above twin bed. Cost about $190. Took two full days. Built using the plans off this site. The inside play area is 42in by 39in. The plans have the mattress on the ground. I have a dog that sheds like crazy so I have her mattress on a metal frame but plant to build a low to the ground platform bed.
My husband and I modified this bed quite a bit to make it work for our 4 year old grandson. We made it 60” tall and it holds a crib mattress and spring base. Considering it is for a 4 year old, we did add a brace on the back of the bed, so it could be anchored to wall studs to prevent tipping.
After the painting was completed, we had to head home, so I will share “completed” photos later. By the way, he loves his “Big Boy bed”!
I suppose this is the simpliest shelf stand ever :) Pls note that side boards should stand on bottom board (in order to provide tensile strength). Also pay attention that the construction shown will not be safety standing near the wall. You should screw it to the wall. Well, that's all. The top valance is made of floor plinth. PS.
