We needed a dining table. We saw this plan and fell in love. It didn't look like it would be impossible for two people who have never made furniture, so we gave it a shot! We finished it over three weekends and couldn't be happier with how it came out. Thank you for the plans!!!
Tips: we were initially skeptical about using regular old lumber, but it came out amazing.
Rustoleum stain and polyurethane...use it!

I want to make this table for my son's dining room. Home Depot Yellow pine has curved edges so my question is. How did you get the tabletop so flush without the curves showing on all the wood piece edges? This flat no edge appearence is what I want to make it look less like a pic-nic table.
Handmade coffee table base on Corona plans. Bottom shelf was chagned to wooden slats instead of solid plywood.
This build was super fun and easy. I modified it slightly with a bottom bunk and outdoor grade slide for my two grandsons. The room is only 10x10 so it pretty much takes up all the space, but I left a good amount of space under the bed (11”) for storage or for the dog to hide.
I attached hinges to the stairs for easy access to underneath, maybe for a hidden fort or more storage. To gain extra support for the beds, I added angle irons to the top bunk legs and 11" 2x4s to the bottom bunks legs for the cross bars to sit on. Both my husband and I tested, and they're not going anywhere, pretty solid.
Thanks Ana & Jared for sharing your talents with the rest of us!! I wish I had room in my home to make every single one of your projects!

Easy to make. I’m in love. Thanks for the super simple plan to follow.
Modified the kids country to a smaller size to fit in a tight area. The coat rack I did freestyle. Both made from scraps, the metal hangers are antiques that I have been holdiing onto for 20 years.
I loved doing this project and the table came out awesome. But recently with the cold weather Ive noticed splits in some of the wood. Also where the beadboards meet the table top there is shrinkage...any idea how to fix it. I used non treated lumber from lowes.

The moisture content in big box 2xx lumber is relatively high, which is why it's mainly used for framing. Letting the lumber dry and acclimate is the best way to limit movement. Also, if you just screwed the top to the apron without allowing for movement, you will have splits as you're experiencing. It's best to use z-clips, or if you use pocket holes make sure you elongate the holes. As far as fixing the gaps, I'm not sure of a good way that will last.

Your table looks great! Can I ask what stain you used? Thank you
Using Ana's three-storey dollhouse as a foundation, I amended the measurements to create a narrower dollhouse (36" wide) to fit our space.
Followed Ana's plan for the easy ~8 ft Farmhouse table and then I made the counter height for 4 Farmhouse table! I LOVE THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Loved doing these free plans from this website! (Ana's)
Great sturdy outdoor furniture to spruce up a small deck space with lots of afternoon sunlight and coastal breezes!

I can just imagine the relazation, it looks fabulous! Thank you for sharing.
I fell in love with the Simple Outdoor Dining Table, but wanted something a bit different. When ewood posted the modified version. I knew that was the one!
My wife and I built this table for our new home. It is a hybrid of the triple pedestal table and farmhouse table top. I modified the table top to give it a little more stability on the ends.
Here is our first stab at building funiture...not too shabby. We built 2 benches with the table!
My husband built us new nightstands for our bedroom. Up next is a bed frame.
Check out this beautiful tapered Ana White planter that I made! Her videos are amazing and simple to follow be sure to check her out.

Second plan I decided to build from this site, my daughter loves it. She's 19 months old now, but should grow into it fairly soon, she can still climb into it though. Slapped it together in less than an hour. Small modifications from the original plan. I used a 1 x 12 tread (leftover from a previous project) for the seat and back. Painted and sealed it, and let dry over night. Thanks again Ana!
This project cost around $75 dollars for all the materials and paint. It took about 10 hours to complete. It is costructed of pine 2x4 with the exception of the slats which are 1x3.
My first project using Ana White's plans. Love how easy the plans are and how great the bench turned out.
I wanted a china hutch in my dining room, but did not have the space. Instead, I built a wall-mounted hutch, which provided room for the dining room chairs to slide back from the table. I altered the plans to make the hutch less deep and added a trim piece along the bottom. My favorite part about this hutch is decorating it for every holiday and season. Thank you Ana White!

wow, this hutch is beautiful! I love how you built it without the base, makes sense in your space!

Thanks so much for submitting this brag post! It was selected randomly for a $100 gift card - look out for that in your inbox shortly! Ana
It's a take off of your privacy fence planter. But I added water to make it a water wall also.
This is my first attempt at woodworking. There are plenty of mistakes, but I'm happy with the finished project
