Modified the original plan a bit.

- Instead of using a wire door I used a board instead to give it a more closed look.
- Attached a mirror to the inside of the door
- Attached lots of hooks on the top piece of wood to hang more necklaces
- added a magnetic catch at the bottom and a rubber stopper at the top to ensure the door closes evenly and holds
- attached to dry wall with 4 toggle bolts

Vegetable bin chalk painted and hand distressed.

Childs table and 2 chairs.

This project took me a lot longer than I wanted, but I love it. I worked a few hours each day and it seems I had to stop because I forgot one thing or another. I changed the way the top looked, I wanted to work with angles, so I framed out a 1x6 with two rows of mitered 1x4. It turned out better than I hoped, but I don't know if I will work with angles again... Like the plan says, it is HUGE!!!

My mom purchased a bunk bed set for my children at her house but since they were only 1 and 2 at the time, we separated them and used the rails on my sons single bed, then my daughters we converted into a twin size crib

Made the birdfeeder by Ana for my Daughter in-law's birthday. She loves it and so does her cat. My bandsaw stopped working, so had to cut the center out with an oscilatting saw. Surprisingly it worked really well.
The hardest part was figuring out where to get suction cups without the hooks on them. Ended up at Michaels where I found some rated for 7 pounds of weight. They seem to be holding up well. I ended up screwing them into the back of the birdhouse. Tried construction adhesive and it just did not hold.

End table modified slightly so that the underside area serves as a Dog Crate. Used Plexiglass on the X sides and other parts from a portable dog crate for the front and back. Also, leather corners add a Hunting/outdoor feel.

I’ve built 4 of these for grandkids and nieces/nephews… fun to build.

This is huge and fits perfectly in my previously lonely naked hallway.
I also made a smaller one as a Christmas present and it has received many compliments!

greate project for small place

Made the x console table a few years ago, decided recently to add a hutch top to it. Love how it turned out.

I really love the way this table turned out. It is sturdy and does not wobble. My kids have already climbed all over it, and it seems like it's going to hold up. I was nervous about the yellow (I tried to copy the yellow from the plan), but I love it. It is just the right thing to brighten up my big back yard. I worked on this table off and on for a couple of weeks. I primed and painted all of the boards before I put it together so that I wouldn't have to worry about painting through the small gaps. It just took forever to paint one side, let it dry, turn it, paint the other side, etc. (Is there a better way I haven't figured out yet??) I thought I was never going to be done painting. When we actually put the pieces together, it took maybe 45 minutes, and that's because I'm not very good at using the drill yet :) Good thing I have some help. I intended to fill in the screw holes and paint one more coat, but as soon as it was put together, it was begging to be put in the yard under the trees. So, I let it be finished, and its perfect!!

Fish made the tabletop from white oak and the base is pine. We still need to build a bench for one side and purchase new chairs, but we are IN LOVE with this table...and it somehow has allowed us to dine as a family more.

I made this American Girl living room set with pine wood.  It is painted white and 2 coats of polyurethane are applied.  The cushions and pillows were sewn by myself using high density foam and fibre fill.  I have made 5 sets and am really enjoying making them that I have opened up my own etsy shop!
