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.
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.
About a year ago, I stumbled across your site, I was a lurker for awhile, finally joined, and can finally post the projects I have done so far. This was my second build from your site. It works perfectly on the front porch.

Thank you very much, I can't wait to start my next project, new night stands to match the bed. Yep, I'm hooked :)

you should really show the plans for the projects.

I'm not sure why the link is not working for you above where is shows: "From Plan." It is working for me.

Looks like you added additional leg supports?
Looks great!

I really like this plan - re the wood choices and finish: How is the wood, especially the white wood, holding up against the elements? Great job on this btw.
Thanks

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.
I made the barn wood frame for less than $30 (the plexiglass alone was $23!). It's better than the $80 they were going to charge me at the frame shop for the same style! I used an opaque black stain to both hide my not so accurate miter cuts and give it a modern feel. I'm very satisfied with the results!

I need a large frame for a family photo. I cant spend the money right now. This has been very helpful. Great job
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
My original plan was for a laundry cart or stand for laundry baskets. I ended up building one that is pretty big for 4 baskets, a shelf on top, and elevated 10" on the bottom for our Roomba vacuum to be stored.
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…
This is our version of a dresser cabinet. Thought we would share. We used mostly birch plywood and began by staining it but ended up painting it after the stain didn't work out.

Great job! I am in the process of building mine. Trying to figure out how to do my doors. I did a double set (6 baskets). Figuring hinges out is baffling! Lol
My wife has been looking for a jewelry cabinet at local antique markets so I decided to make her one for Christmas. I mostly followed the original plan but added cork in the bottom section so that she could push in earrings that can't be hung from the front.
