Made this out of just 2 x 6 boards.  

This bed was built using Ana White’s Haily plan. I used 2X10’s in place of the 2X 8’s. I chose not to build the headboard.

In addition to my brag post regarding DVD stand (posted here: http://ana-white.com/2012/09/simpliest-shelf-stand) I would like to suggest you the project of TVset and other multimedia stand.

PS. Sorry, English is not my native language, but I hope you can understand my post. Blog link leads to russian language page.

Made a smaller version of the fire truck bed for our two boys. The youngest will move "downstairs" when he gets out of the crib. It was fun, but lots of work! It took me about 5 weeks of weekend/late evening work.

Thanks for the great plans and inspiration.

Executive office desk withmatching hutch. Hanging file drawers on the bottom and pull out paper trays included on the top drawers. Adjustable paper tray in the hutch. Custom gray washed finish

Made this patio set out of old lumber from a deck we replaced. I saved a lot of the 2x10 joists. I ripped them all into 2x4s, then had to sand off 25 years of grime. Built two chairs and a loveseat. Just added additional seat support for the loveseat. Then stained them. Very happy with how they turned out. Was nice to be and to repurpose that old wood.

I made a simple queen platform bed from the Hailey plan by omitting the term pieces. See more details at my blog post.

Our old kitchen table was a bargain buy from a nearby outlet store and while I hate to say it...you get what you pay for. This was my second project ever so I was pretty nervous about building a table. My first project was storage daybeds for my girls. They were a lot more forgiving than a table. This project took me approximately 2 weeks of working off and on but only because I'm a bit of a perfectionist and finishing it drove nuts. But it's finished and I am in love! The plans for the rustic table were modified to make a shorter version to fit out kitchen. The bench plans were kept the same but the pesky cross supports were omitted due to lack of functionality and difficulty of cutting angles. End length on tabletop is 6ft. That's the perfect size for the bench to fit under.

My daughters play kitchen, everything works... running water included!

Just finished this console table for my granddaughter the angels on the cross piece were quite challenging.

This is the large modern porch swing, scaled down to 24" x 36" and made with 1x4 for the frame and 2x2 for the legs. It's put together with the Kreg jig, which I now use to build everything. I may add a photo of the bare bench, once the cat gets off it.

I built this for my daughter to go under her loft bed at the time. It was my very first time upholstering anything before! 

Just began to build items after creating a workshop in my basement. Started with small planters and just built the large stand up planter pictured here. Ready to plant the Tomatoes!

First project. Modified ends to be wider so that a chair can fit.

This was a fun project and my daughter loves her bed. She is the envy of all of her friends.

Great quick project, but painting on the other hand was very time consuming. This bed has one cost of latex Kills and 3 costs of Sherwin Williams interior eggshell.

To make the bed fit between the wall and window i had to shrink the stair width.

Made the bed from wood that I got from the place I work.  It was weathered and rotting.  I was able to work around the rot.  I had to play with the finish to get it all of the bed pieces to match. The bed is really heavy because the wood was full 2" material. The smaller picture shows the actual color of the bed more accurately.

I love the workbench console plans so made them smaller to work as nightstands.

Decided to try and make lamps out of some firewood.  They worked for what I wanted.
