This was my first Ana White build, and I’m hooked. Super simple for a beginner to make.
This was my first project, I love the look of the benchwright collection, so I changed the plans a little so it will look like the benchwright console and coffee table.(Farmhouse look) On the top I used 2-1x5's and 2-1x6's with 1x6 breadboard ends instead of the plywood with 1x2's and 1x3's. I can't wait to start on the benchwright coffee table and the console table for the entry way.

That's beautiful! My husband and I just built a den onto my Mom and Dad's old farmhouse. She is begging me for the entire Benchwright collection to go in her new room. I will be building this piece soon, I'm sure ;) Thanks for sharing all the great photos!

Looks good. Did you sand the clear coat between coats? How did you attach the glass to the doors?
This is my third build based on the Kentwood Nightstand plan. Added a shelf this time to use as a charging station at night. Customized the height as well so matches the height of the bed.
I believe I found the orignal quick version on the Finding Aloha site with a link back to Ana's original Farmhouse Bed. I made the blanket and bedding from some cheap FQ's. It was a hit for my neice's 7th birthday.
My wife had me build this dresser for our baby boy. She took features from a couple different Ana White dressers and combined it into one. We also added to the height of the drawers, adjusting the overall height of the dresser to serve as a baby changing station.
Chevron table made with Knotty Alder inlay and pine frame.
Such a cute, functional table that was easy to build!
A Farmhouse Media Console built from ana white's plans. This media console was built out of maple plywood and poplar for the face frame, doors, and top. The design at the bottom was a bit of a trick. I used a bucket for the half circle and a very thin piece of wood for the "wavy" design. The center door is known as a barrister door. I would be happy to answer any questions.

I made this dollhouse as a cute way to store my daughters Shopkins collection. It went together really quickly!
We had the mattresses and bed covers made !
We did increase the height to 20" which seemed to add a little extra space between the bunks. My daughter were able to help, she is 10. This was a nice and quick build !
Thanks Ana,

Love this privacy planter and how easy it is to switch up between the seasons. I build a false bottom to make it easy to just set plants on it.
The 'Clara table' was my hubbies first true build. He built this table for our daughter last summer. She loves it and it gets used on the daily. :) We went with a solid top instead of separate boards. It might have added a little extra cost but not much.
I built a bookcase with a large drawer beneath for my son's nursery. This build was based on Ana's plans for the Cube Drawer Bench and Hutch, but I changed a few things to make it my own. This was my first real attempt at making any kind of furniture, or anything else, really, and I'm fairly happy with the way it turned out. More importantly, my wife loves it.
I learned a TON from all the resources on this website. Thanks Ana!

It looks really great! One question, how did you attach the hutch to the bench?

Thank you!
I attached the hutch to the drawer by drilling 4 pocket holes on the inside of the bookcase where the bottom meets the top of the drawer. I also used wood glue. I was concerned about the hutch moving around, and the possibility of it tipping over, so I decided to go ahead and build the two components as one piece, essentially.
Also, in order to add some additional strength and stability, I combined the frames on both components so that I would have vertical 1x2's going down the entire length of the backside of the piece. I also added horizontal 1x2's on the backside of each shelf. All these things combined really gave it a lot of extra strength.
Ended up skipping the drawer slides as I made the drawers too wide. Not as tricky a project as I expected, and we’re thrilled with result!

Looks AWESOME! I did something similar with the wood on white, I just posted the build :) I am going to have to copy this though!!!
We made some minor changes to the overall finish from the plans for the coffee and end tables, I had a hard time matching the stain color, as well as omitting the hardware (I painted it but we never got around to attaching it).
We had a console table that we were replacing (we bought it when we first moved in and I've never been overly thrilled with how it looked in the room) and hubby did a GREAT job incorporting the fireplace from that unit into the console table.
Over all, a fun and inexpensive set of living room furniture. Can't wait for our next preoject!! We're planning an "X" inspired dinning room table for 10. I'll be sure to post pictures!

This is perfection! And exactly what my boys have been asking for. Any chance you have your modifications? Thanks!
