I've always wanted an Adironback chair, now I have 4! This was inspired by Ana's Adironback chair. Because we're mad Patriots fans, the logo had to be painted on as well. For the seat, I made it wider, more curved, and alternated 1x2 and 1x4's to give it a beachy look. The arms are wide to hold beverages and chip bowls. All the curves were drawn by my daughter, the wonderful artist.
Super sturdy chair.

Made this table for my daughter. She stained it golden oak, and plans to paint over it and distress. Its a handy good sized table for a desk or small dining table. Will put more pics when finished. I used 1x4s for the table top instead of 2x4's. I used the kreg jig to join the top together.

The daughter painted it with white milk paint, 2 coats. She did some sanding, and then went over it with brewed coffee.

I love the toy box plans!! I've done some woodworking previously, but this was my first larger project. The first one was so simple and easy to make that I decided to make more!

I was inspired to build this adirondack chair after I built a couple from Ana's child adirondack chairs. I love everyone of her projects and have a LONG "honey do" list to complete.

What a great little project. Each one holds 32 crayons. Since it's a quick project and there are 64 crayons I the crayola box, why not make two! It helps if you have a belt sander and drill press. Those two save a Lot of time on this one. Put a little round sanding bit on a Dremel or drill press and really save time with the holes and getting them smooth.

I have been wanting outdoor seating by my pool forever but couldn't afford anything I liked. When I came across Ana White's plans for the outdoor sectional I knew I had to build two. They are just what I was wanting and cost under $200. It took my brother & I one afternoon to buy the supplies and put it all together. Since this furniture is outdoors 24/7, I had to caulk the seams & paint the whole thing. That process took two days. The biggest expense was of course the cushions from Home Depot that Ana White recommends for this sectional. I have to admit, they are well worth every penny. They look amazing! Can't wait to spruce them up with some throw pillows.

I mashed together several twin bed plans - farmhouse bed, simple twin bed and Hailey Storage bed to create this farmhouse style daybed. It's a very sturdy and heavy piece of furniture.

I meant to post this a long time ago, but I kept forgetting. Ignore the mess in the background, we were renovating our house. I roughly used Ana's upholstered toybox ottoman plan, but really, I just made it up as I went along. I constructed a plywood box the size that I needed it (i.e, big enough to fit my husband's video game accessories).

I built this media console for my dad for Christmas. He has a decked out Alabama room, but it was missing that one piece to tie it all together. I saw these plans and knew it would be perfect.

I added the Bama logos and door knobs which really set it off.

Platform bed and headboard

Used your plans to make a sturdy, durable hardwood picnic table for a friend. Top is black cherry (1 1/4") and base/seats are white oak (1 1/4"). The seats are one piece, 11" wide from a white oakoy cut and sawed on our property! Sealed with two coats of Spar Urethane.

First project! Modern Farm Table using a mix of the original and the updated pocket hole plans. Stained with vintage gray/brown on pine. Used Minwax® Fast-Drying Polyurethane in satin to finish. Table - 33" X 69"

Built this bunk for a school fundraiser raffle. Hope it will be a hit! Followed the plans as written with only one change. I cut the tops and bottoms of the vertical ladder rails at 45 degree angles so they slant in towards the bed.

Modified lounger, made from 75mm x 38mm (cls) timber, sealed with 3 coats of exterior varnish.

Had great fun making this one, already on with making my second lounger.

This was a simple project, super easy to do if you need an inexpensive bed for a young child. It freed up floor space in our son's small room, which he loves.
