Great little shelf for a kids room. Love it.
Ana, Thank you so much for the plans for yoru Christmas Tree Shelf. My niece is a huge fan of the Christmas all year round and now that she has her own place it was a perfect fit. I edited the bottom area so it woudl be able to sit on a table, she is currently in an apartment and does not want to attach much to the walls. Added the boards in the back of the two compartments so it can later be hung, and also predrilled holes in the shelf bottoms in order to crew in eye hooks to hang ornaments from if she likes.

Easy to follow plans and make adjustments with materials I already had lying around. Love them! Thanks for the plans Ana!

Great, job. Absolutely love the finish choice and greenery! Thanks for sharing:)
It was a fun project over two weekends. Thanks to this platform. - Teji
Stuck to the plan as described, but I used my Kreg jig to use pocket holes where I could. I used 1x4s for the shelves and joined them together with pocket holes. This made it much stronger. Without joining these boards, the shelves are kind of flimsy, not sure how much weight they could support without some type of support system. I added an extra 2x4 to the top, this made it overhang about an inch on the front and back. I used 20" drawer glides. Also, I notched out the side supports for the 1x4 shelves 3/4" so the shelves sit flush with the side supports.

Just had someone build this for me, I'm wondering what paint color is on the bottom of yours? It looks great with the stain you chose!

Great table! I'm currently building a similar kitchen island and was debating going the cheaper route of utilizing 2x4s instead of making a butchers block. How did the wood filler between the boards work out for you as a flat surface? Has it cracked at all? Thanks in advance!
Last week I picked up a few pallets while I was at Ace and made these cute stands with some of the wood today. I spray painted a few cans and threw some flowers in them and have a beautiful centerpiece for my Farmhouse table! I built both of these in about 10 minutes.

This is a farmtable that i made from your plans, along with the bench also made from your plans. Turned out pretty good, worked on it mostly on the weekends. Christmas present for my son and daughter-in-law. Your website is full of great ideas and plans, thank you.

Made it a bit wider, added a shelf and wheels.
