For my niece's birthday, I built her this awesome storage solution. Mom was super happy that everything could fit together in one spot and my niece takes this with her wherever she goes. I was so happy to find plans to build this as I was not sure what to make her for her birthday!

We needed a guest bed in a hurry and this fit the bill.

Thank you so much for posting this platform bed. I am building my first home. I am doing the finish work myself. Needing a box springs for a mattress I decided to build my own out of the scrap 2x4's and 1x4's. This bed style will fit perfectly in my new home!
Modified the Round X Base Table plans a bit. Made the table 25 inches high, 38 inches diameter. I glued 4 poplar 1x12's together using a biscuit joiner. I then rough cut my circle with a jigsaw. I then made up a quick circle cutting jig to cut the perfect circle with my router using a straight bit. Then i rounded over the edges with a roundover bit.
Another adjustment i made was making the legs straight as opposed to being on an angle as it was intended as a children's table.
The table was stained using Minwax Chestnut Gel Stain, which is so easy to use.
I finished it with 3 coats of Minwax water based Polyacrylic.
The chairs were something i saw for sale on a website, so i tried to copy it. They were selling the chairs for $150 each, i made mine for about $15 for the pair. They are made out of pine stained the same as the table.
Did this project over the span of two weekends.
only tough part really was the X sides. Had to source from a friend.
Hard to make a picture of a big bed in a small room...
LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT
I needed a real grown up bed after sleeping for years in a twin... yeas a twin!!!
I wanted something pretty and simple and something I can't see dust collecting underneath - no drawers either as I try not to tap in the "storage addiction"
This bed is so perfect I just wished I did not have to go in the kitchen no more to cook... I even got a new TV for the bedroom as it is so much more comfy there than my couch :)
I extra bought a Kreg Jig for this project as I only had a one pocket hole little gadget which just did not do the trick,
The Kreg makes life so much easier - but my god who would have known such a little hole makes such a mess ;)
PS I never can find the right plan matching the project... wierd... it is the Rustic Modern 2x6 platform bed
Farmhouse Desk
Built desk for larger room but in hindsight should have shortened the length by about a foot. Great solid sturdy desk and easy to build.
For my son's 7th birthday, I promised him a new lofted bed. I poured over different designs, drooled over all of the different things I could make, worried about whether or not I could actually do it. Nothing in the market fit my requirements or my budget... I was determined to make this for my son.
Over the long weekend, this bed was constructed... a little "Loft Bed", a little "Claire", a little "Cabin" and a little inspired innovation and ta-da: The Fred-enstien Bed :)
Claire guardrails and bookshelf supports
Modified Claire Desk (work in progress)
Cabin Headboard
Custom built storage shelf stairs (he didn't want a ladder)
Next weekend will be touching up the paint and installing the remaining bookshelves
I made this extendable triple pedestal table based on Ana's orginal plans. I had to "engineer" the extension system - which was fun - and it worked out nicely. I also added a threaded rod through the pedestals (towards the top) to give added support in addition to the pegs through the centerboard.
Thanks for the inspiration and the plans, Ana!

Happy to answer questions or send additional pics, if you'd like to know more about this table.
Still needs stain but came out pretty good so far!
Our very first project. Both Ana White projects. Loving it! Thank you so much for free plans!
I found the William Vanity on Pottery Barn and loved the look, just not the price. I recreated it with a top sink and a drawer for a fraction of the cost.

The link to the instructions for this vanity is no longer valid. Would really love to get the instructions for the vanity.
I made the locker cabinet and resized it to 80 inches to provide a little more locker height, and changed the depth to 16 inches. I haven't installed the last coat hook because I'd like to make a charging station on the top shelf using the outlet under the cabinet. Went really well!

Oh, and I decided to face frame everything so I wouldn't have to see the plywood edges.
This is a heavily modified version of the rustic x kitchen island that I tweaked to make for 2 sinks.

This is gorgeous! Thanks so much for adding a brag post!

Do you happen to have plans or info on what you did to modify it to hold the sinks?? Absolutely love this!!!
Mon, 02/03/2020 - 06:41
Absolutely love this but I would like the actual modified plans . Is it possible to get them?

Love this!!! Great job!!!! II need new vanities... this will be a great project!!
My husband and I both work from home and we don't have a lot of space. I was getting frustrated that he was always working at our dining room table, so I wanted to create dedicated work areas for both of us. I really liked the style of the farmhouse console table, so I modified the plan to add a second desk on one end. They are very functional and did not take up a lot of space. Best of all, they were very affordable!
4x4 Truss Table and truss bench
Extended table to 109 inches. Finished just in time for Thanksgiving dinner. All 14 of us fit around the table comfortably.
This is my first project. It was very fun and quite a learning process. Thanks Ana for the great site and inspiring me to start a new phase in my life. I was missing a couple of shelf pins
This hall tree started life out as a pair of ceder pallets.
This isn't based on a plan but could easily have been modified from the single locker cabinet plan here on Ana White.
The whole thing was screwed and glued together using 7/8" drywall screws and Elmers all purpose white glue.
I have no money into this unit that wasn't already spent. I got the wood for free. The screws glue and misc. tools I already had laying around.
The lady that bought it from me intended to put coat hooks in it and use the space below for shoes.
