I was able to make this cabinet using your plans and it went absolutely flawless! Thank for all that you do!
I modified this plan just a little on the ends, and I can not tell you how pleased I am with it! I did run into some issues with lining the boards up properly due to imperfections (and not laying the boards out ahead of time in the store because I was rushing at closing time), but in the end, I decided to add a wood filler in between the boards and everyone just raves over it. I could not imagine it having come out better. I would not do it any other way.
Thank you Ana!!
PS... I have a wonderful idea for a loft bed, but the plans are not provided. I know you would do it justice.. how do I submit the photo????

I also liked this table but never found the plans for it. I did find a very similar table with plans at:
https://www.shanty-2-chic.com/2012/06/fancy-x-farmhouse-table.html
Looks like just the bottom of the legs are different...
I used the plans for the Fancy X Farmhouse table, but customized the lengths of both the bench and table to fit our room and to the sizes we wanted. Thanks Ana!
My first project, I built it out of rough cut lumber that I cut on my parents portable sawmill. Took me three weekends to build, turned out pretty good, but I would change how I did a few things.
I combined Mimi's Hall Tree with the Alexia Bench for this project. It really turned out great. My son and his wife love it. It also made me feel pretty good that I built something for them that hopefully will be passed down to future generations.
Our 18 month old was constantly climbing out of her crib so we got a cheap toddler bed and tried it out. She liked to go under the bed and almost always got one of her legs stuck between the slats on the under side of the matress.
I decided to build a bed and found Anna White's Toddler Farmhouse bed plans. We modified the plans ever so slightly to make it a platform style to address our original issue.
For the stain, we used 1 coat of steel wool and white vinegar that sat for 24 hours and prepped the wood with 3 bags of black tea steeped in boiling water for 10 minutes. The color was exactly what we were looking for.
This is my first project and there was a good amount of learning involved but it turned out amazing!
Here is something I finished this weekend!

This is such a thoughtful and insightful post! I really appreciate the way you’ve highlighted the importance of simplifying complex ideas. It's so easy to get lost in overwhelming amounts of information, and that's where services like Nocramming https://nocramming.com/discounts/preply-promo-code can make a huge difference. They help break down content into digestible chunks, making learning or understanding something new much easier and more manageable. Definitely a great approach to keep things clear and focused—thanks for sharing this perspective!
I made those for the christmas present of my hoby.
Followed Ana's plan exeactly same and it worked well for my need.
Thank you, Ana!
Here's my version of the Dream Doll House. Three stories, made with birch plywood and pine, featuring realistic stairs, baseboards, crown molding, exterior corner battens, and left in the natural state with just a few coats of water-based poly. Put the whole thing on casters for ease of rolling around the playroom. Fun project and the hugs were all the reward I needed!

I am sure your granddaughter will cherish this for her lifetime!
A few years back I decided to build a playhouse for my daughters birthday, the ones available locally were plastic garbage. Since then people started coming forward asking me to build ones for their kids, which is great as it's kept me busy and sane after being forced into early retirement. I've stuck mainly to the more traditional looking on ground house but, soon requests came in for treehouse-style ones; taking Ana's playhouse deck plans and adapting them slightly I now starting my fifth order for a platform house. Being in Cyprus all our timber is imported and very limited, I've more chance of seeing a Unicorn than a piece of Cedar which has meant a little more work involved to make sure they withstand up to the elements, we only get around 20 days of rain a year but, the summer heat is like the surface of the sun. Fortunately, with this not being a new problem there are plenty of options available for preservation/protection, the 'colours of Greece' range by Kraft paints perfect, its sprays beautifully and the colours spot-on for kids.
Built this table from Ana-White plans and the benches from Rouge Engineer plans. Fun build and looks great. Easy to customize to fit your dining space.
Our living room is long with a vaulted ceiling. I wanted to find a way to break up the length of the room visually, and Ana's ten dollar ledges were the perfect solution. They also had a great price tag!
I changed the the plan just a tad to break up our wall space, creating two ledges - one 6' and one 4' long - instead of one that is 10' long.
The only other variation we made to the plan was adding kreg pocket hole plugs (http://www.kregtool.com/solid-wood-pockethole-plugs-prodview.html) since we hung our shelves high enough to see where screws were drilled in.
After shelves were assembled, I painted them using Lowe's Antique White in satin finish. This project was easy, fast, and very affordable! I love that we can change out the items on display either seasonally or whenever we want a fresh new look. These ledges would work in any room and even instead of a chair rail in a dining room... and the lip on the front makes them safe so that nothing will slide off!
We had been looking for a headboard for our son for the longest time, but could never find anything we liked in the shade we needed in the stores. Fell in love with this bed, thought it was one of the more "boyish" styles that I've seen which was what I wanted for my son. Asked my husband if he thought he'd be able to build it, he said he'd try and voila! We, however, modified the plans a bit and only made a headboard, but overall, I love it!
I decided it would make a nice simple side table for my home office and show off the beauty of cedar by using oil.
We started this late 2013 and finished it June 2014. We used an old IKEA bed hardware for the middle support for the full mattress. We had to use Hemlock Fir "white wood" for the 4x4's (found at Menards in Wisconsin). We used Satin polyurathane from Minwax and allowed a month for the fumes to die down. My boys and guests seem to enjoy the bed.
My wife and I built our whole bar, from the shelves, bar, and the kegerator! We needed stools to round out our endeavor but we werent willing to shell out the kind of money required. My wife found this plan and we morphed it a bit to meet our needs. The KREG JIG saved us big time! The seat upholstry took us a bit of time, but we figured it out thanks to YouTube. Great project for a weekend, took us a tad bit longer due to the arrival of our daughter but, we still got it done!
My wife used the benchmark media console plans with her own idea for the doors
This was so easy and fun! We splurged a bit on nice cedar because apparently the cedar mills are down due to covid so the less expensive fencing isn’t so readily available. The hubs helped me rip down the larger boards, then I cut and assembled it all. Not including the buying and ripping, this took me maybe 4 hours to complete and we ended up with a beautiful kitchen for my daughter’s 5th birthday! Thanks for these super easy to follow plans!
Rural Bus Shelter with 3/12 shed roof, designed to keep your kids out of the elements as they wait for the bus. Shown with log siding and 2x trim. Can be constructed on a slab on grade or remain portable with pressure treated runners and wood floor as shown.
Upgrade further with electricity and insulation for those really cold and dark climates (ie. Washington, Oregon, Alaska, B.C.).
I will make the plans for this shelter freely available to all that are interested.

Good day. I would like these plans if they are available. Little one is starting Kindergarden and I'd like a nice waiting spot for her. Thank you
