Drink Dispenser Stand
Using the tall cake stand plan I found it doubles as a drink dispenser stand when not being used for cakes.

Love how these turned out and LOVE that I had almost everything in my garage already! Here's a tutorial for those of you who would like to make it!

Was hoping to see these plans, but the website is parked. No luck finding the plans anywhere.
This was our first Ana White project. We knew we wanted to do a table, and decided this was the easiest one for first-timers without a kreg jig (YET!). We made things even SIMPLER by having Lowe's do ALL the cutting for us! I didn't even know they would do that, but they will.... and happily so!
The project went VERY well and we are delighted with our new table. We used Rustoleum "Kona" stain and we used Rustoleum spray gloss poly because Lowes had a bunch of cans of it on clearance. We were happy with the results, though it may not be the best indoor product in the future ;-)
The project took us about 4-6 hours to build, and then we just sanded a little each evening, and the next weekend we stained and poly.

Looks fantastic! I want to make one just like this. The dark stain looks beautiful! Great job.
My daughter and I dedicate this doll house to my great uncle George Breeding who made a beautiful doll house for my sister when we were kids. I hope my kids will carry the maker bug into the next generation! Great plans!

I'm wondering the same. The dimensions looks bigger here. Would you mind sharing? I like the size of the rooms here. Thank you.

Been loving our Ana White plans!! The table and shelves turned out exactly how we wanted them to & they were SO much cheaper than paying for lesser quality furniture store finds. We’ve received so many compliments!
After a not so subtle hint, my husband embarked on his first furniture build to give me my dream coffee table! (He is in construction by trade- this is not a beginner project!). It came out beautifully and we LOVE all the drawers and storage! He found a few errors on the plan, first of all in the price- ours cost us a bit over $200 with some of the wood given to us by my dad- slides alone cost about $40. He also had to add shims so that the drawers fit with the slides. You may be able to change the dimensions of the drawers slightly so they fit without the shims. We are happy with it, and excited to move on to the next project in our home!

Nice job! It looks great! I'm actually going to be build this for my wife and was wondering what kind of plywood you used for the top to go along with the poplar? Did you use 3/4 Birch plywood? I think I'm going to use the General finishes Java Gel stain for the finish too. Thanks!

ACK! sorry, thought I would get notified if someone posted... IDK if you already finished yours or not, but my husband thinks it is maple plywood, but we aren't sure. after seeing some other projects with the gel stain you mentioned I will definitely have to get some of it for future projects, cause i love the look of it! Good luck, i hope you post photos of yours! If you have any other questions, post them on my blog post here http://monkeyshiners.blogspot.com/2012/01/my-christmas-gift-storage-cof… and i will get an email about it to respond asap. :)
Made from scrap wood left in the empty lots besides me, from framing crews.
Cost me just the time, screws, sand paper and stain.
Made all the cuts with a skillsaw, by saving the $$$ I have now went and bought a mitre and table saw. YAY!
This was a fun afternoon project built almost entirely from materials I already had on hand. I finished it off with a coat of Gunstock stain by Minwax, followed by a coat of Cherry stain. I sanded a little between each coat. Next I applied a thin coat of black paint and sanded gently until the stain started to show through (and bare wood in places). Finally I applied a coat of polyurethane gloss. It took about four days to complete the finish and I made it up as I went along. Super happy with the end result. I opted not to add the side bins, but I did add an extra 2x2 on each side, mostly because the 2x2 I used for the legs was a little bowed and the exta piece ensured that they'd stay where they're supposed to.
When we took the wall out from between the living room and kitchen in our small farmhouse, we found that our tiny table just didn’t work and we definitely needed more space at the table with the kids growing. So this is what I built. I wanted it counter height so I can have extra working space in the kitchen during canning and baking. I love how versatile it is in our space as well. We did cut down the backs of the chairs because it was too tall and overpowering in the small space. I also didn’t account for the seat length and wanted the whole chair to pushed up right to the table, so we adjusted the side measurements and made three of the chair seats one board smaller. They are perfect for the kids. Now on to the cabinets and painting the walls!

So much better than a regular garbage can! Thanks for sharing your version, it looks fabulous.
This was my third project so far. I am having so much fun with your designs! I bought your book and also got a copy for my friend. Thank you so much for all of your free posts and for being such an inspiration!
Modified the plans to make a fourth cubby, they turned out great!
Finished the second chair using Kreg holes fir the arms
Cedar looks good I think

The cedar looks great, thanks for sharing your beautiful build!
Dress up tower for my 4 yr old daughter to hang her pretty play costumes and princess outfits.
This is my first wood working project I've done. I am definitely a beginner, but feel that it turned out great. The project instructions were easy to follow and very descriptive. Some of the problems I ran into was my hardware store had a very limited selection of wood to choose from. I ended up buying a 2x4x1/2 sheet of plywood for the sides so when I made my cuts, I didn't take into account that the blade from the saw would eat up an 1/8" of wood which made my cuts off. Next when I was attaching the 1x2s and 1x3s to the plywood, I didn't realize I clamped the wood to hard which left a slight bend in my joined pieces. Overall I feel the project turned out great and my 3 year old loved it (which is the most important thing)!! I look forward to making more projects, to include another toy box.

Loved design so decided on hardwood and no visible screw heads….. took a while but loved the result
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.
