I built two beds one for each of my daughters using the Farm House Storage Bed with Drawers. The plans were very detailed and extremely helpful. I modified the plan to utilize a box spring and mattress set since the girls already had a full mattress set. This was my first piece of furniture to build so it did take a few weeks to complete. I added the trim molding around the drawers to add a little custom work to it. The original plan had the foot board below the mattress and I wanted it to be above the mattress and I extended the boxed to allow foe a comforter to be tucked down the bed. I placed purple knobs and blue knobs on the other bed to give the girls their favorite color to add to the bed. I used a semi gloss Sherwin William's interior paint on the beds to make it easy to clean. The girls love the beds and when we have company over they are amazed how the beds look and most end up taking naps on the beds. I spent $450.00 total per bed, which also included the knobs and the full extension / easy drawer slides.

Love all the added details, very well done, thank you for sharing!
My sister needed an extra tall stool for the bar her husband built, so I adjusted the Parson Chair plans to make them fit. I included the Sketchup model that I used in my blog post.
Really enjoyed making this! Thank you for the plans Ana White!

I love the backing vertical board you used for cabinet door. Is that shiplap, beadboard, or 1x’s? Thank you!
I modified the size slightly and turned an old pallet into three matching floating shelves.
I built two of these headboards over Labor Day weekend for my girls.
After looking through the Handbuilt Home longingly many times, I took the plunge with this simple headboard. I've never built anything from wood, but my main hobby is sewing so I'm good at following directions. I followed the plans exactly and I love how this came out! I used a nailer and glue for all the construction. I recommend this project for beginners! I chose to paint my headboard black to blend with my other furniture.
Now I'm already onto my next project, with a Kreg Jig in hand, the modern craft table from Ana's book. Thank you, Ana for sharing your plans and inspiring people to try building! I feel my skills and confidence increasing with each project!

I've got the wood in my garage, marked for cutting this project out! Yours looks fantastic. You will love your Kreg Jig! It's one of my all-time favorite tools.
I used the Rustic X Coffee Table plans to create this table and changed the dimensions to make the table square for better accommodation in our living room since we have 2 full size sofas instead of the standard sofa/loveseat combo. I still need to add the actual X's and will add an updated picture when I finish those.
I wanted a add a safe spot to hide all my gaming controllers and remotes from my 1 1/2 yr old nephew. It was pretty simple and I got the idea from tactical designs. They make hidden storage! If you cant tell it is still dusty from sanding! Best wipe it off!
