Modified the classic bunk bed plans to fit crib size matresses for our 1.5 & 2 year old girls, loved how my toddler bunk beds turned out!
Our old screen door wasn't cutting it anymore, so I built a new one, and to kill two birds with one stone, I included a built-in dog door. Now I just need to find the motivation to close off the old dog door.
I have the plans to build this screen door with a built-in dog door posted via the blog link below for anyone interested.
We used ana's plan but modified the top

This is EXACTLY what I'm looking for but I can't find the plans that were used to build it. Do you happen to still have the link for them?
Created this door with pine wood tongue and groove lumber and pine wood planks. Purchase barn door hardware / track from Jet.com and door handles from Hobby Lobby.
This replaced my Master bath door and I think came out pretty good. Thank you for the ideas!!! Jeff M. Brownstown, Mi
I used Ana’s Shelf Help Configurator to build these shelves for a deeply sloped ceiling. None of those well known Closet Organizer Companies could come up with a decent plan for this closet and they charge a small fortune.
I'm loving the finish on this, and it's a useful little project.
Made 2 of these for my coffee shop in Puerto Rico. Easy instructions. Thank you!

We altered the original plan by enlarging the sandbox (approx 5' x 6') which made for wider benches that can comfortably seat an adult. The benches and back rests are three boards deep instead of two. We added 2x12 supports under the benches for additional support, as well as another 2x4 support in the middle of the backrest.

I just love seeing pictures of these built! Makes my heart swell :-)
Enjoyed making the potting bench
Thanks for the plans.

This is s porch swing I made to go in my front sitting room. I re-purposed my sons old crib mattress. It definitely gives the front room the "wow" factor.

You did a fantastic job with the build. You picture could be in a magazine.

I love it! I had never thought of re-using a crib mattress, might have to give this a try :)

This is a wishing well I made for my sister for her wedding. It will be used during the wedding for people to drop "wish you well" cards into and afterward she can use it as a planter in her yard.
I followed ideas from multiple plans here on Ana-White.com, but I didn't follow any specific plan. Mostly I followed tips and instructions for cutting angles, drilling pocket holes and some finishing tips. This is the first "big" project I've done and I"m quite proud of it.
With everything, it measures 44.5 inches high. The well measures 21 inches across and 15 inches high. The roof measures 22.75 inches by 23.75 inches.
I hope y'all like it. I worked hard on this! :)
Thank you, Ana and everyone who contributes to this site. It's been so much fun and I've got lots of ideas for more stuff. If I was any good at all at Google Sketchup I'd put up the plans but I'm not. If anyone could help me with that, that would great. :)
Have a great day!

This project was quite easy and did not require many tools. The plan allowed me to adjust the measurements easily so it could fit in that space. I used regular 2x4’s and treated the wood with Mountain Ash colour in a semi-transparent stain from Sherwin Williams, I just love the colour! I build 2 - 2 seaters exactly the same. The one side has no arm, as I wanted it to look like a lounge chair. I love to sit in the corner and stretch my legs 😊. I bought the cushion covers from IKEA, and got good quality foam.
We took some creative liberties on the Williams Sonoma inspired coop posted here. Because we don’t get a whole ton of sun in our backyard, we eliminated the herb garden planter and instead built a longer run. We also made the coop a bit wider to accommodate for the inevitable chicken math. And, you’ll notice the vent both shaped differently and is a bit higher. This was to increase air flow, avoid the dreaded draft, and to lend a more Scandinavian vibe. We also decided to place the chicken exit on the outside wall to allow for more living space under the coop itself. The project took about a month to complete, dedicated to only working weekends. And, it was very much over budget! Who knew wood is so expensive?! But overall, the outcome was even better than I expected. The chickens love it and I don’t mind looking at it!
P.S. this was a pretty advanced project. The fractions alone had me yelling “uncle!” Thankfully my husband is pretty handy, and my father-in-law (career in the construction industry) had a few pointers, so they took the lead in executing. I chose the paint colors and suggested the deviations from the original blue print. ;-)

Thank you! Yes, I suppose everyone is wanting wood for home improvement projects now that we're not leaving the house! Also, I didn't mean to post a picture of my son and his friends. Am I able to delete?

does this roof have the same angle as the 'Small Chicken Coop with Plans'? It seems to be 'less steep'. Wanting to start this project next weekend and trying to get my mind wrapped around everything!. Thanks.

Do you have a run side photo? I am thinking about adding more run onto mine.....
I wanted to make a large porch swing but just couldn't find the exact design. I wanted to be able to stretch out and take a nap but also be able to have a back to lean against. Most plans that I found were just basically a box you could put a mattress in and then hang. So I found Ana's plan for a basic daybed and chopped off the legs and raised the back just a little. It's perfect!! Thanks Ana. The plans were very simple to follow. This is my first project and I think it turned out great.
Sat, 07/26/2014 - 07:37
Looking forward to do one like this !
Do you still have the measurement for the back you have raised ?
Really nice !
Thanks :-)
Sat, 09/20/2014 - 16:33
Thanks! The height of the back and sides is 28 inches.

We made the bed and it looks awesome! Thanks for making the plans easy to follow and providing the picture, which was a fantastic reference. I do have a question for you in regard to how you hung the beg. We would like to hang this from our porch, but can see that we simply have 2x4 roof trusses. We are concerned that the weight of the bed (pretty heavy) plus mattress and support plus a person may be too much. Any additional information you could provide on how you hung the swing would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
Not quite big enough for Pizza Oven, but love the plans!

Not quite big enough for Pizza Oven but love the plans!!
We did some conversions to the smokehouse plans to make a locker for all of my horse tack! :)
I worked on this project over the course of a few months, and I absolutely love the result! I posted all the info at my blog: http://www.designatedspacedesign.com/2017/10/01/a-rustic-sideboard/
My husband and I moved in to our new house last fall and we needed a dining table that would seat at least 8. We picked this plan from Ana's site because I love the look of the 4x4 beams. I used Adobe Illustrator and my math skills to modify the size and scale to fit our dining room with exact spacing all the way around. We had difficulty finding untreated 4x4 beams but were able to special order some for a reasonable price from a local lumber company. It is more expensive than combing 2x4s but I did not like the pieced together look of the 2x4s. We stained with Rustoleum Dark Walnut and Matte Poly just like the blog post from Ana's site. We also used the Kreg Jig HD which is SO AWESOME! We love the table. Now we just need to decide: chairs vs. benches. I hate to block the beautiful truss design of the base. Its so gorgeous!
Mon, 08/31/2015 - 14:18
I love this table. The finish came out great by the looks. My wife and I are moving into a house soon and I think this is going to be the design for our table as well.
Mon, 09/07/2015 - 06:21
What a beautiful table! Is this table square? We are also looking to build a table to sit 8 and love the look of yours. Could you share your cut list or dimensions?
Mon, 08/29/2016 - 06:08
Thank you for all the kind comments! I did not know that I had gotten any and had not checked back over the past year. The jump drive with my dimensions on it got damaged last year shortly after the build and I lost all of my home decor files including the AI with my cut list and dimensions. I know it had been a while since several of your comments but I will see if my husband can help me measure the table and figure out what the dimensions are and post them on here for you. Happy Woodworking!
Tue, 11/15/2016 - 18:01
This table really looks great! I'm about to start making one and would love to know the dimensions you used. I also noticed that you didnt use the bread boards on either end. How many people does this table fit?
Thanks!
Mon, 02/27/2017 - 08:51
No, we did not use bread boards. It seats 8 with plenty of room.

measurements
Hi,
Could you email me the change in measurements you used for the crib mattress?
It would help me out so much. I want to build a similar one for my boys.
Thank you.
