My first build project. I purchased 35in legs as i wanted a pub height table. I think it turned out great :)
I upscaled the size of my table to 60" X 36" to match my oversized couches. I then used decorative corner brackets I found on amazon for the corners, and 1" decorative nails for the base of the legs. Fun project!! Next up are matching end tables and entertainment center.
After building myself a Christmas Tree shelf for 2019, friends and family wanted me to build them one for 2020. Three people wanted a smaller tree so I scaled down the plans and used 1x4's ripped to 3 inches. I also included cup hooks (3 or 4) and an aluminum french cleat hanger I found on Amazon for about $5 each when you buy three.

Love all the varieties of sizes and finishes!
Our 6 month old is crawling now and we had to hurry up and baby proof the house. As an added bonus this dog proofs the down stairs at our house as well. The "barn door" side is made from 1x6 and the back is 1x3. The stain is called Gunstock which my wife is obsessed with. She is talking about staining every piece of wood in the house with the stain which I will NOT be doing. It took me around 4 days to finish it completely and put it together. I built the frame in about an hour. I let the wood glue set for a day, then stained one side. I gave that stain 24 hours to dry and stained the other side. Then I followed the same process to clear coat it. I clear coated it three times and sanded between each coat. I had bought a latch kit and installed it. I am very happy with how it came out.

What a great piece, nice job! I love how you put this inside the house, I have been wanting to do a gate like this. Now it's on my list for sure after I see yours.
Wanted to build a couple chairs to place around the fire pit and enjoy roasting marshmallows on crisp fall evenings.
love this plan!!! Thanks so much!
I used the king farmhouse bed plans and modified to build our new bed. Painted then used briarsmoke stain over paint.

Thank you so much! Thank you for all the plans that make building so easy.
This was built mainly as a place to bring our pond plants in for the winter. After looking at various kits we decided this was the best option for us and much cheaper.
The size was increased to 12 X 12 and the walls/ceiling were increased another 15" in height over the original plans. An entryway was added to block the cold wind as our original barnstyle door wasn't tight enough and ended up being too drafty. Also added an RV type autoswitching propane system and blue flame heater for backup. For the winter months we insulated the lower portion of the interior walls with spun fiberglass and 6 mil film stapled over it.
This is a very utilitarian version that serves our needs well. Great original plans and easy to build.

We didn't change the angle from the plans. 22 degrees I believe was the cut.

Wow, this looks awesome! I love the arctic entryway (thats what we call them up here in Alaska) and all the mods! Thanks so much for sharing!
This was my second Ana white project and first complex one.
I learned a lot and look forward to more.
Finally finished this table, chairs and benches. Benches don’t slide under the table so I’m going to build another modified set and use these for outdoor sitting or something similar. Turned out great and love the look.
We were looking for a temporary desk to fit in a space next to our fireplace until we can build some built-ins. We modified the width and depth to fit. This was super easy. We love it.
I used the Turned Leg Farmhouse Table Plans for the frame of the table, but changed the measurements to fit the table top from the Farmhouse Table - Updated Pocket Hole Plans. I also saved a little money by using a set of black turned legs from an old kitchen table.
I completed these chairs about 3yrs ago. It was a great project and I learned a lot. I really appreciate this site and have made a sofa and 2 benches as well. Thank you Ana for the site and I wish HGTV or another station would pick up your DIY show!
This set of tables is exactly what my fiance and I were looking for. Its rustic knotty look pulls the room together and glows a warm colour when the fireplace is on. Thanks Ana!
My wife and I just purchased a new home with our first dining room. While debating the expense of buying new dining room furniture we decided that we should try a do-it-yourself project and were lucky enough to stumble on Ana's website. While we had never done any real woodworking (we made a cat tree once), Ana's plans and the accompanying comments were easy to follow and proved that even beginners can make cool furniture!
We built the bench first and managed to complete it in one weekend without much trouble. This helped us learn the basics of the tools we were using, especially the miter saw. The table followed.
We wanted a slightly larger table and bench than those in the plans so that we could host more people and fill out the room. Our table is 78" x 38.5".
Increasing the width required adding an additional 1" x 6" on the table top. The only other change that we made was to extend the 2" x 2" on the side of the table the entire length of the table as is required in the bench instructions. We thought that this provided more stability for the bread boards. We used a threaded rods and turnbuckles on both the table and bench for the accent piece between the legs.
While we certainly had hiccups along the way, but we really enjoyed the process, and love the dining room set that we built. It was a really rewarding experience and now we're looking forward to building most of our furniture!
Special thanks the Ana for her plans and website. We couldn't have done it without her.

This looks great! You have a beautiful room too!
This took me about 1 1/2 week to complete. I'm active duty military so my hours are always crazy.... I didn't get this from any specific plans. If anyone needs guidance feel free to get in touch with me.. you can also follow my work here...
First time doing something with a face frame. Painted with chalk paint and finished with black wax
Well I have found your site through Pinterest md now I am Addicted. Not only did I make one stool, but now three ( one for each of my boys). I will be finishing them shortly. But since it is my first project I wanted to share and thank you for the plans.
Next up is a sofa table (90% done already) and the media center (which I will float and use as storage for kids toys and double as a window seat)
Anyway, these stools are great, the kids love them and thy will go great in the kids room under the camp loft bed or loft playhouse bed (my next project :)

This is a nice project. I gotta make one for my nephew.:)

thanks, they really like them - simple but practical and useful project
Modified the main table by knocking down the length one foot. Slightly reduced width based on lumber used by about 2 inches. Added two extensions. Used 2x4s for side aprons and 2x6s for end aprons. This allowed me to notch 2x3 (lumber size) holes in the ends to slide extension arms in. Arms held by friction and torque so if you do this make the holes tight. Don't over stain or poly. Slide wax candle on arms to help them slide in. If lose you can install a latch on arms under table. All items from Home Depot. Last photo shows dry fit of extension prior to screwing on top from the bottom. Gave me best alignment. If you haven't paid it forward for this great FREE site, do so by ordering Ana's book a Handmade Home. Making the coffee table I found in it this weekend. Good luck all and if you are wondering if you should? Yes, you should.
