Farmhouse Bed
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.
We are so thankful for the plan! This is our first building project (ever!) My son loves his new fort bed, and we feel so empowered to have done it ourselves!

I was looking for a cute, simple bed for our 9 year old son as he gets a room to himself for the first time in his life(we adopted him from Haiti 2 years ago, where he shared with 4-8 little boys and then he has shared with his little sister since they came to us). This is just what I was looking for and didn't know it-haha.
This is my first attempt at woodworking. There are plenty of mistakes, but I'm happy with the finished project
Fun day project. Had toddler mattresses left over after my boys moved to big boy beds. Used the mattress and upholstered it to look similar to a couch. Now it lives in their playroom complete with throw pillows from target. I built some of this with scrap wood on hand to save cost. All in all, a very fun project!
Made this outdoor table with Lowe’s lumber. Added some industrial accents like the metal rod and turnbuckle underneath and the metal corner brackets in each corner of the top. Spray painted the metal hardware black. I did incorporate the pocket holes for the table top.

I love the rugged look of the table! It looks great!
This was a great project. Easy to do.. Had to down size the table to fit our trailer…
