It isn't perfect, but it's beautiful and made with love!

There's lots of versions of headboards made from doors. We wanted ours to let light in and still be able to open/close the windows. Since the doors were hollow-core the cutouts had to be re-inforced after cutting out those sections. Also, this was made from 3 different sized doors so 2 of the 3 had to be cut in half from top to bottom moved to the outsides to retain symetry.

I followed the plans but modified for a king size. I upholstered my bed in a linen colored upholstery fabric and added the nailhead trim to the headboard. This is the most sturdy bed I have ever owned. I don’t know if I will ever be able to buy from a store again!!

This was my first try with an Ana White plan. It was tons of fun, and my husband came up with an awesome paint design. Here it is:

It came out looking pretty good. We followed the plans. Treated entire area with a pre-stain conditioner. Then applied 3 coats of Minwax PolyShade. Voila!

I spent the last 8 months building 2 bunk beds from the Ana White site.  This little girl sweet pea version for my granddaughters and a cabin version for my grandsons.  This took alot of time but their smiles made it all worth it.  I am thankful for the website and plans you provided. It allowed someone like me to build something that my granddaughter loves and hopefully will remember forever.  Many, many thanks!!!!

Been a while since I had time to actually build anything worth posting about! My wife wanted some items for her Kindergarten classroom this year, so built several items, most inspired by the Farmhouse family.

I built 2 canopy doll beds and matching nightstands for my neighbors. I modified them by flipping the plans over, raised the top shelf and turned the bunk into a canopy. I wish I could take credit for the fabulous sewing skills but that is my friends talent!

I made this dolls bed with my daughter, and she really enjoyed it :-) Had to do some adjustments from Inch to centimenters before I started. Thank you for a great site!

I used the 6 Cubby plans and just started tweaking.  First was the plan to just do 12 cubbies, then decided to just put in adjustable shelves for aethetic purposes and not having it look too "Boxy"  After that decided it would look better with doors too.

as for the shelf on top, I used the cubby bookshelf plans and just made it wider to match the width of the doors and then decided to also make it adjustable shelving as well.  (used the kreg shelf pin system.)

Overall turned out pretty good. I am making a even bigger one for my other room.

We're having a baby girl, and this was the perfect project for me. For my first project, I am pretty pleased with it.

I decided to make this bed when my little girl decided that she didn't want a little girl bed (toddler size) and wanted a big girl bed. Because of the size of her room and the fact I wanted her to be able to move the bed to a different wall if she wanted to in the future I added a front ladder rather than on the end. I also added 6 inches extra clearance under the mattress and 2 inches to the side railing height so she could have a pillow top mattress in the future.

As you can see in the second picture I was up there with Hannah so I know it can easily handle the weight.

In Ana's description it talked about the kids playing by themselves and not wanting to come out of the room. Well it's the truth. Hannah has been in there the majority of the time since we finished it yesterday afternoon. The first words out of her mouth this morning were "Momma thank you for making my new bed." Made all the work so worth it!
