Built this from the exact plans given. Very easy to build and learned a lot. Built whenever I had time after work
Your outhouse design was modified for a snowmobile club project as the building needs to be towed across a lake to a site next to a warming shelter. An LED light with a timer switch and solar battery charger were installed to provide light in a remote area of Lake of the Woods.
A steel hitch and skids with hyfax were added to the design.
Thank you for providing a design that allowed us to make modifications for winter outdoor recreation accommodations.
We modified our plan by use a router on the edges and stenciling the top. We used pine. We left our wheels the original industrial metal .
**This is one sturdy table and easily serves as an ottoman with large groups .
This was my first project ever! I was very happy with the way it came out! I just did a little adjusting to get it the size I wanted =) Cushions for a decent price was very hard to find, I ended up going to walmart and I actually really like them.
It took me a while to complete as I have a little one (turned a yr the wknd I finished) and only worked at night and during naps!

This looks really nice, good job. Isn't it fun to build just what you want!
This was an adaption of the Fancy X Farmhouse Table using 4x4s as the base. Please check out my blog article for more details. Thanks for looking!
I just started building "stuff" a few years ago and love Ann's plans. I have built several of your dining and coffee tables. This cabinet was a bit challenging and took me a while. I have had built drawers before but they turned out OK. I really like the top I create from some scrap 1 x 4's. Thanks for the great projects.

Hi Ana! Your work and dedication to your art are amazing! I had a quick question regarding the channels. I looked up "C channel" to order at my hardware store but there seems to be a curve at the bottom where the wood panel would sit. I also saw a "U channel" that's square and looks more like the one you posted in your video. Could you guide me as to which one would be best? Thanks!
This was a fun easy to do project that can be done in a day.
this was a super fun afternoon project! I used the specs for the Queen size headboard, and they were bang on. no modifications needed. i did reinforce with some screws from the back, as well as I used a 1x3 vertically in the centre of the back of the headboard, which i used to give extra stability to the horizontal pieces. i secured each horizontal board to it using 1" screws from the back, as my boards were not quite flush and I am a bit of a perfectionist! lol
This is my first ana white project and my first woodworking project. I think i like this new hobby i just picked up.
I built a couple of these for the garden area and they are wonderful to sit in. As an experiment I painted these with chalk paint then finished them with several thin coats of spar urethane. After a couple of years in the sun, they seem to be holding up pretty good. I may sand and apply more spar urethane this summer just to keep them looking good.

Looks fantastic, thank you for sharing, so glad you are enjoying them!
We love our new coffee table! Thanks for the idea!!
I saw these beds featured in a Sherwin Williams paint mini magazine, fell in love w the idea, and customized them to work for my daughter's room. She loves them! Thx Ana White!!

How did you tie your rope? I made the beds but having a difficult time finding a secure way to tie the rope so it's study and won't slide
I made this work bench for my garage. Over a few weekends. It is 11' 6' long and is made of pine lumber. I used 2x10x12's on the top, mostly 2x4's are used for the farm with the exception of the center part of the legs. Those are rough cut 4x4's I had laying around. 1x6's for the bottom shelf. Getting the top seams to line up took a lot of sanding with 40 grit. They were to big for me to run through the table saw myself so I sanded and sanded. I did run skews threw the top and then filled with wood filler. I wanted strength. Plus the top boards are not glued so I can replace as needed (It's a work bench right?). This thing is big, heavy, and solid!
Used the Clubhouse Plans as the base. Added length to the 2x4's for the second bunk. Made upper and lower railings. Used 2x4's between the legs with 2x2's screwed in for the lower bunk. Hobby Lobby for the nautical swag. So now me and the grandkids have a place to hide!
I made one set for my son, the one with the stained top. His friends liked it so much and kept borrowing his set, that he wanted to surprise them with their own and asked me to build them one with the LSU colors. Thought they turned out great! Thank you for the plans!

These look fabulous, ove the paint/stain job! Thanks for sharing.
This was my first project. I already had a large ottoman, but it didn't hold anything. So I broke it apart for the box frame, added a bottom and hinged the lid. I was able to reuse the padding and upholster the pieces with sale fabric from Joann Fab ( love that store). Than I attached the fabric with a staple gun. Since it's in my bedroom, I like to keep wedding photos and such inside. Plus my 2 year old cannot open it!
First project for upcoming annual craft show. Guessed on cost as we bought 2x6s and 2x12s on clearance and ripped them down ourselves for a cost savings. Used beadboard for the chalkboard because I got a slightly damaged 4'x8' sheet for just $3.95. Have to say that it's not the smoothest so I'd definitely go with something like luann next time. Still cute!
That last picture shows the second batch I made for the following year. I modified the plan to simplify it for me and use less materials by making it just one-sided.
Gas pump cabinet with bookshelves.
I let my kindergartener choose the color, so we have a pink sandbox! I live that this has a full lid, as the sand generated a lot of interest from our chickens! Plan egg followed as written, with a few minor detail changes, love it! Note, 320 pounds of sand was a just right amount for this sandbox!
I built this Tower from plans found on Ana's site.
Decided to do with a two tone colour.
I'm very happy how it turned out.
All three Grand Kids fit in there and love it.
Thanks Ana
