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.

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!

Got this idea from the blue cooler project - but decided to deck it out with vintage trimmings. Everyone who has seen it loves it! Very fun project.

This was the first woodworking project I have undertaken from this site and it is simply wonderful!
very easy to follow plans, and easy assembly.
I have this daybed hanging from my back deck across from my hot tub and it is the most wonderful creation I've ever attempted!
I included a twin sized bunk-bed mattress instead of a traditional twin so that it would be thinner.
I zipped a vinyl cover over the mattress and then added sheets, decorative pillows, a throw blanket, and some lanterns to the platform.
I plan to hang a canopy that will drape over the ends.
The backdrop in the picture is comprised of two cloth shower curtains that hang from eyelets along the edge of our deck.

My very first furniture build! Followed the construction plans and my bench turned out great! Thank you for helping others enjoy this craft!!

Solid Wormy Maple Top, "clear" grade, no knot westerd red cedar 4 x 4 legs, 4 inch lags (no Kreg Jig), Spar Urethane on top (clear satin, 3 coats), and Danish Oil on legs (one coat to keep "dry look").  Wormy maple boards, S4S, joined and plained.  Bench is one solid piece of wormy maple, same top coat as table top.

We have really been enjoying our new Weatherly Sectional that I built with Ana's fabulous plans! I love the way it fits perfectly in the little corner of our deck.

I only made a few simple modifications:
1. I added an arm to the loveseat, as we wanted an "L" configuration and not a "U"
2. I added at least twice as many 1x3's for the seat slats, as I wanted to be able to sit on the furniture when the cushions were stored inside. I put about a 3/4" space between the slats for water drainage.

I made a 36" x 36" ottoman/coffee table out of scraps & it fits perfectly.

I bought the cushions from the Improvements catalog and they fit great. They are not as nice as the ones from RH, but they were about $40 each and were 20% off with free shipping. Here is the link: http://www.improvementscatalog.com/deep-seat-chair-cushion-24-1-2f2-22x…

Corner unit for kids bedroom. Added fabric boxes from ikea. The fit perfectly 

This was so much fun to make and so relaxing to enjoy.

After posting about my 20 Second Tidy Up table I built on my blog, a local reader commissioned me to build one for her too! I used a Kreg jig for the top and sides, as well as the 2x2 frame supports. I also added some L-brackets to the sides for added stability. This thing is solid! Since Lowe's doesn't carry fixed-wheel 1 5/8" casters I used an epoxy putty on them so they only roll in one direction. It keeps the trundle from bumping into the sides and being hard to open. Love the table, and so does Christine!
