I made this bookshelf for my living room using old bifold doors and bricks. There isn't any building required (just assembly) but it is a piece of DIY furniture so I thought I would share.

I wanted to rearrange the livingroom but needed a corner cabinet since the t,v sits on the fireplace mantle. I loved this plan except it didn't have any drawers for the DVD's so I just did the top portion on the bottom. I made the bottom slots wider and made drawers for them....perfect solution for my needs...

This was a fun project to get my feet wet again in woodworking. We adjusted the plans slightly. Our table is 80" x 40". It is supported and bordered with a 2x4 frame that ties it all together. As my friend said, you can stand on that thing. Lots of fun, and can't wait for my wife to enjoy it.

My husband and I re-created the farmhouse bed night stand from Ana White!! I tried to stain it first but didn't have much luck and decided to paint it to match our farmhouse bed.

We didn't follow the plans exactly. Since our bed was higher we made our own measurements for this project.

My sisters family was coming for a visit, all the way from england. I wanted to make it special for my niece so I built this bed from your plans. I made a few minor modifications, like adding an extra step (as she's quite small) and rather than making a wood slide, I found a plastic slide at my local hardware store and used that instead. I think that simplified the project, at least for myself. Thanks for the great idea and plans.

this.was my first attempt at making furniture. Using Ana's plans.were straightforward and couldnt have done without them. thanks Ana!

I built two of the floating shelves and they came out great! I will be building some more of these hopefully soon! I put some of my step by step photos on my blog. Thanks again for the amazing plans!

The directions were SO easy to follow! I made one chair for my husband for Father's Day, and ended up making two more. My plan to to have four total. The only mod I made was to use 1x5's for the arm rests instead of 1x4's. Painted with Sherwin Williams Duration Satin in Ethereal Mood.

Our wine fridge died, and we didn't really need to replace it. Since we can always use more storage space in the kitchen, the hubby made me this coffee bar as adapted from a coffee bar brag post that was adapted from Michela's Kitchen Island plan. He was able to make it with all 2x4s and created the 4x4 legs by gluing 2 boards together. Put it on some caster wheels and we have a perfect coffee bar!!

I modified Sausha's design, taking out the bottom shelf, adding a back brace, and putting fascia boards on. I also put in a 2x4 between the underframe and each back leg at a forty-five degree angle as braces. My legs are a bit different too. I used three 2x4's. The first leg piece goes from the plywood top to the ground. I put four screws between it and the frame. Then I took two 2x4's and placed them butted at a ninety degree angle around it flush with the frame above.

I built all the furniture for this room using Anna's plans.

I saw your outdoor chairs so decided made 2 out of 2x4 from your plans. I put the 1 that is finished in my sun/ coffee room. I love it and ha e had many brags so I give them your info and a couple of friends are making them. Thank you

This is my first project from Ana's plans. I found a big pile of old wood left by the previous home owner. It looked like it was from old fencing. We used some for fire wood, some for fence repairs and still had a big pile. I was looking at it one day after finding Ana and thought it would make a really cute plant stand for my yard. My first project turned out great!

easy plan to follow and build. Love how it turned out. Only cost $58 in wood!
