sofa pottery barn cushions
Easy to build 2-3 hours. Weather proofed because did not want grey cedar in a few years. Liked the color of weather proofing but color continued to leak off. Polyed and sanding eventually stopped the leaking if colors. Scored pottery barn cushions 50% in the winter + 15% new email customer. Still $150... bought some pillows from pottery barn on sale for another $60. All in all looks awesome! VERY easy build. The rest ($$) is what hurts... Test any weatherproof in you use first before using.
Coat Rack
We needed a coat rack in the mud room to go along with the X Bench that I built earlier. This was made from a drop of wood left over from the bench. I had the hooks left over from a project I made a couple of years ago. My wife says our mud room is now complete. I used the plans Entryway Bench and Storage Shelf I just didn't use the shelf part

Storage locker unit
I have been waiting a long time to have this amazing piece of storage. The size is what was intimidating to me but it was easy to build. This project is perfect for a beginner . Make sure you have an extra set of hands due to the size otherwise this was easy and straight forward to build. I love the storage it offers to keep my Minnesota winter gear organized. The kids have a place for all of their snow pants, boots, coats etc.

Benchwright Console Table
I followed the plans exactly, except I didn't put the trim pieces on the lower shelves sides. I really like the way it turned out, and my wife painted it with Annie Sloan Chalk Paint, color "Paris Grey" and then used Annie Sloan finishing wax (both clear and dark wax) to protect the piece and age it. I think it turned out great! Thanks for the plans!
Nothing was to difficult with these plans, at least not if you have a Kreg Jig. I would add that I used pocket screws on the top pieces not only to join them to the breadboard end pieces, but also to each other. That made it really strong!
Plane old shelf
I made this shelf with reclaimed random wood but followed the original plans almost exactly. I used an extra large jar of peanut butters top for the front of the plane and the propeller was made for a random little piece of wood I just sanded down the edges to round them. The landing gear is from two corners of scrap wood and I bought the round pieces of wood for the wheels at michaels for about 10cents because I do not have a hole saw.
Pallet Wood Planter
I made this planter out of some left over pallet wood that I had. It was pretty quick. It went together in about 2 hours. I have the step by step plans on my blog.
Firewood Shed
Smaller firewood shed. So pleased with how it turned out.

Fantastic Farmhouse Table
Love this stain and how it makes the grain stand out!
Tiled Coffee Table
This was one of the 1st woodworking projects I did on my own. I never tiled before so it was a challenge. Even bought myself a tile saw to do it. I could not be more happy with the way it turned out and I love having it in my living room.

Wrong Video
I've been searching for WEEKS to find this vanity. I knew it existed somewhere but didn't know where. Please, PLEASE, post the plans for this. The video posted above it is for the pantry organizer. Thank you in advance!

Angles for the "X"s
What angles did you cut the "X"s at? They're cut at the top and bottom instead of the sides like the kitchen island plans show and I want to make sure that I cut mine at the correct angle. Thank you again.
Farm Style Headboard with Lights
My daughter wanted a Farmhouse/Industrial look for a headboard, so I found a nice selection of hardwood pallets that had heat treated wood and put together this headboard & attached and wired a light set.

Modified Farmhouse Bench
This was a very modified version of this plan. I mostly just dismantled two stools and built the top. The top is one solid plank of wood and two layers of 1x2's to create the frame. It goes perfectly with my Farmhouse table. I love the character of the wood top, its so unique. Enjoy!
Reading nook tent
This was the easiest and quickest build I've done yet. The more time consuming part for me was stapling down the curtains on the underside.
Kids Sofa (half of the sectional plan)
I had some wood laying around with all the new home construction around us and needed a reading seat for my 3 & 7 year old. I took the sectional plans and whipped this together pretty quick (as you can tell as I still need to put in wood filler for the screws...). It's perfect and we all can sit on there while reading books for night time (and he can keep all his little shoes under there for easy storing). Takes a few hours to come together for s novice like me. Paining took the longest. I need to remember to paint first but tend to get so excited to build, painting comes after. Thank you for the plans!
Easy Garage Shelving
I want to thank you for such great videos and plans!! They worked so well that now I will do the wall on the left side of the photo.
