I just wanted to say thank you for the awesome plans. We modified the dimensions a bit to match our couch. 

Thank you again!

Dori and Geoff

I just Modified the Camp Loft Bed to a Playhouse Slide for my Children. What a nice Christmas gift ;)

I altered the plans slightly starting with the desk's top.  I had extra 1 x 12 on hand so I worked the dimensions around that.  The height and width is the same, only the depth is changed. This was a very simple and enjoyable build.

I loved the idea of this as soon as I saw it and decided to make it as as my daughter loves to watch cartoons on my ipad while sitting in her high chair eating her breakfast etc, 

I added a cap that can cover the end when it is not in use, a back and also painted it a very dark grey with gold accents on the feet, controls and also the little plaque I made.

My daugher cristened it "My TV" and loves it.

I am no longer allowed to play cartoons for her without "My TV".

Another great plan !

Onto the next one.

Built this desk for my parents to fit in their office space. It is made to look like the Hendrix desk except smaller. I sandwiched together 2 pieces of plywood to make the desktop thick and sturdy.

Hi Ana,

Thank you for the wonderful idea about storage shelves.

I made one with some modifications. Total lenght is 4 m, height 2 m and depth 50 cm. The columns and beams are from 40x60 mm, the shlves are 110x20 mm. Pine wood was used and the photo shows bare wood without protective layer. It will be covered with colourless protection.

Keep up the good work!

This Project took about a day and a half.  Hardware was from amazon for about $70 plus another $30 for additonal rollers since the set only comes with metal bar and 2 rollers.  Stained in Weathered oak.  Its built with poplar wood.  This was about $400 to build with all the hardware.

Loved the simplicity of this design. It turned out beautiful. My sectional is 6'X10'X10'.

Second project using completely reclaimed wood.  The plans were easy to follow and I made a few minor modifications.  I swapped out the two 2 X 4's inthe middle of the frame for 2 X 6's and added a center foot to each of them for center support.  I had a hard time finding larger shims and was about to make my own when I grabbed a few pieces of scrap 1 X 3 and started to make the design you see on the footboard. My wife like the look so much that I repeated it on the headboard.  Looking forward to making some nightstands that will match the look of the bed. The boards used to be nailed together as temporary fencing that is what created some of the color variation in the wood and I tried to create some sort of a pattern by alternating light and dark.

Snowman for the porch!

I found these posted on a blog a few months back but I forgot the blog that I saw them on. 

Entry way drop zone for shoes and backpacks. Made entirely from pallet wood. Made to the dimensions my daughter wanted. Inspired by some of the other Ana white plans I have done. Thank you Ana for the boost of confidence you sparked in me. - Jeff

I made this for a good friend of mine who just moved into a new house. I used all reclaimed wood and made my own stain for it. The legs are made from 100+ year old oak and the side aprons are from vintage walnut. The only wood that isn't vintage was the pine on top, I wanted a rustic look so I used pine boards that separated masonite boards and laid a towel on top and bumped it a few times with a hammer and dropped a few things. The boards weren't long enough for the table I cut some in half to make the table longer. I also added corner brackets to fit the look of the house.

Didn't want the yellow but the wife talked me into it. Looks fine thou. I used 2x 4 instead of the lighter wood. I like the heavy dutyness as I'm kind of heavy. Yes I used pressure treated lumber (I know cancer) But hey last longer.

I was only going to build the table, but after I found this chair and decided to make the 8 chair set. Great descriptions a d plans. 

This is a canopy bed I made for my niece for Christmas! I modified the plans and so it's a little bit different, I would do it differently next time as it was hard to get the bottom right. But it turned out cute, and she loves it, it's a size for a Barbie Doll.
