Stuffed Animal Cage
![](/sites/default/files/Animal%20Cage2.jpg)
I followed this plan exactly and it fit in my Grand-Daughters room perfectly. She has a lot of toys and stuffed animals and she needed some place to put them all. I don't like the look of the pet nets and don't like that she couldn't reach her animals when she wanted them. This was a simple project that really didn't cost me anything because I was able to use wood that I already had left over from other projects. It turned out so good and will get so much use.

my picnic table
![](/sites/default/files/3154825900_1366828500.jpg)
Very easy project to make. From leaving the house to get the wood, get home, make cuts and assemble was about 4-5 hours. I have used this website as inspiration for other projects, but this was the first that I just followed the plans and it turned out great!. Very sturdy and perfect size. My daughter in the picture is almost 5 and this is perfect for her and will last years for our youngest daughter.

I built a desk!
![](/sites/default/files/image_734.jpg)
This is my biggest project to date. It's a great craft desk!
I used an oak project panel for the top, and pine for the rest. Finished with Rustoleum dark walnut, 2 coats of poly, and white paint.
Also, I'll probably revisit the hinge placement, adding another on each side.

Farmhouse Queen Bed and Kentwood Nightstands
![](/sites/default/files/3154825985_1366991951.jpg)
Spent two weekend between both the bed and the nightstands. The nightstand were completed one weekend and the bed was completed on another weekend. The wood for the nightstands was purchased at Lowe's. The wood for the bed was purchased at a lumber yard. The lumber yard carried untreated 4X4 posts 16 ft long for $9 each.

Farmhouse Bed with Storage!
We LOVE our finished bed. We started out to make the Farmhouse Queen Bed but decided after completing the headboard and footboard that we wanted some storage with it. We made the frame from the Farmhouse Storage Bed plans without the actual drawers. We wanted a more open look to the storage. We are pleased with the way it turned out and love that Ana shares these wonderful plans online. Thanks again Ana!
Triple Truss Coffee Table
I used cedar because I love the color and wanted the natural look.
I ended up creating a cement top instead of using the 2x6's and added 2x2 on the top boarder for added support.

Double X Bench
![](/sites/default/files/x%20bench.jpg)
I made this double x bench from plans from www.hertoolbelt.com
This is seriously easy to make.
It looks complicated but it really isn't.
I used the vaseline technique for distressing.
This bench looks amazing at the end of my farmhouse bed.

Made a few adjustments - rounded the armrest. Absolutely delighted with it.
Kentwood Nightstands
![](/sites/default/files/3154826375_1367640666.jpg)
My wife and I have couldn't decide where to start our DIY projects, so we picked the Kentwood plans out of a stack and got to work.
Ours are fashioned out of two 1x 12 pine boards, (7/8 x 11 1/4) cut for size. There is a great mom and pop lumber yard about an hour from where we are, and has spectacular prices on just about every kind of wood...saves us about 67% off the box stores.
We had some cedar tongue and grove boards lying around, so I used the cedar for the side and door panels. We also opted to add a shelf to the interior, measuring 13' off the bottom deck.
We did not finish the interior, aside from sanding the shelves, and putting on a top coat.
The top of the nightstands are made with scrap tongue and grove pine wall panels my father-in-law had sitting in his wood shop.
Really fun, enjoyable first foray into the ana-white.com community. Gotta say, having a Kreg jig makes joinery a snap.

Fun project, ordered the hardware for the rail system itself and the wheels were too big so I made my own rail system.

Inspired by the designs from Ana White and Whitney from Shanty2Chic and so thankful for the clear instructions, I built this 4x4 Truss Beam dining table using locally sourced clear Douglas Fir. We are so pleased with the results!

Outdoor pallet table with recessed planter box
I bought a house and couldn't stomach buying something I could probably build myself. This is my first project and first furniture build. Besides buying the drill and screws the table was free. Didn't even buy a skill saw, just used a hand saw. The dimensions were dictated by the length of the pallet boards and width by the two end caps, so there were very few cuts to make.
Found plastic planter boxes for succulents (3 in picture) @ dollar store. I wanted to be able to switch out the center pieces and plan to rotate in herbs, ice, other flowers.
This project was totally made possible and inspired by others posting projects so I thought I should say thanks and post my own creation.
