Loved the simplicity of this design. It turned out beautiful. My sectional is 6'X10'X10'.

My son is getting to the age where he wants to see everything we are doing whether it's in the kitchen or at the workbench out in the garage. This tower is PERFECT! We were eyeballing a $200 tower on Amazon but I was thrilled to find these plans. Even with the hingest I think I came in under $40. He immediately figured out how to climb up by himself and the top rung is a good height for him. This is going to get a lot of use! The build itself was an easy afternoon but of course the multiple coats of polyurethane took a few days since they had to dry. Thank you the wonderful plans!
Fun weekend project for an entry redo. Adjusted plan to 4' length to fit the space.
I made this for a good friend of mine who just moved into a new house. I used all reclaimed wood and made my own stain for it. The legs are made from 100+ year old oak and the side aprons are from vintage walnut. The only wood that isn't vintage was the pine on top, I wanted a rustic look so I used pine boards that separated masonite boards and laid a towel on top and bumped it a few times with a hammer and dropped a few things. The boards weren't long enough for the table I cut some in half to make the table longer. I also added corner brackets to fit the look of the house.
Took about 8 Hrs total. Used the Kreg jig except on the sides. Left the screws exposed for a more industrial look
We did it!
I loved the look of the Henry bookshelf, but I was looking for a longer, shorter bookshelf — so I modified the plans and created this version. It stands a little over 3ft tall and is 6ft long. I chose tongue and groove bead board for the backing and mixed two different stains to achieve the hint of gray. Finished it off with a satin poly.

This is a canopy bed I made for my niece for Christmas! I modified the plans and so it's a little bit different, I would do it differently next time as it was hard to get the bottom right. But it turned out cute, and she loves it, it's a size for a Barbie Doll.
Followed the basic design but used 1x4's instead of a project panel for the top. Found a great drawer pool at a little shop in Folsom.

No matter what picture I choose the main pic shows up rotated left.
I own a small furniture and home décor company called Inspired By Home and we love Ana White's site! When we saw this mirror top coffee table, we knew we had to have one for our home. Since we have a 3-piece sectional sofa that takes up the majority of the living room space, we knew we needed something that was a little bit smaller so I made some adjustments to these plans. The dimensions for our coffee table are 34"L x 28"W x 21"H. Most coffee table are about 18"H but our sofa sits a little higher and I also have very long legs so I needed something a little bit taller. We also decided not to do a mirror top because A) we didn't have an old mirror we could use, and B) because we are not big fans of having any glass tabletops. I instead went with a rutic look and added a bottom shelf to match.
If you like this, you should check out some of our other designs here.
Thank you, Ana and your team!
I took part of your built in dining bench idea and made my own custom bench. I made a farm house dining table for a family and once it was built and delivered she asked if I could build her a banquet. I had never done anything like it before, let alone install it permanently in some ones house. Because of the way I made the table I couldn't use a straight front face bench, I had to put an angle on it to allow for the table to be up close to the bench. This bench is 10' long, has two USB electrical outlets built in, and two 43" storage compartments. I enclosed the two ends of the bench for the wiring of the outlets so that no wires were exposed.

Love the look, added storage and electrical possibilities, thanks for sharing!
Built for the boys to go with their new swingset. Advice: laminated cotton does not hold up well outside, so don't use it to cover the seats!

Awesome! This has been on my build list for about a year now, gotta get to it. It looks like sooo much fun!
Simple and very easy to build. Used scraps left over from other builds.
I couldn't believe how simple this console table was. I used my Kreg pocket hole jig to easily add the shelf and am so pleased with my results. Used white-washed pickling stain to hivevit this great color.
Created this chair for 1st grader online schooling to go with rustic x computer desk. Used 1 x 2 for frame, 2 x 2 for back, 1/4 thick MDF board for seat (from previous project), 1/2 x 6 board for back rest (from previous project).
We had a horrible time finding furniture in Mexico for our house and decided to build our own starting with these chairs for our roof top deck!
I had to alter the original plans to work for me, but I loved this project! I even took the time to stain this table.
No modifications to original plans.
Seeing this project posted somewhere is what brought me to ana-white and got me building. While mine is nowhere near as beautiful as the one posted, I'm really proud of this project and think it turned out great. It's all reclaimed lumber and I use 4x4's instead of the open leg design and I'm really happy with the way it came out.
