This replaced a huge formica countertop in our laundry room. The counter collected unfolded clothes on the top, and piles of shoes underneath. Also, we had a 4 hook shelf from Target holding all 3 of our kids bags and backpacks. My husband was against this, because "where would we put all the laundry?" Well, this is the solution and we both love it!

I measured this out and drew diagrams and then finally decided this was too big of a project to do for the first time. I did hire someone, but he said the measurements were right on.....he had never built something like this before. The outside of the door is painted with magnetic primer and holds magnets. So much more functional that the counter.

I know I didn't build this myself. I think I could have done it, if I could have a week to do this without interruption, but that was impossible and I needed this YESTERDAY (the 4 hook wall shelf fell out of the wall). But I wanted to share in case anyone else is having a space dilemma! We LOVE it!!!!

Thanks Ana for your wonderfull website! even in The Netherlands your designs are shown.

Modified the plans from the farmhouse table to add leaves in order to extend it another 15" total. Turned out well with the locking latches.

We have been in need of a place to store our horse tack for several years, and finally got around to it. We modified the small cedar shed with a little extra support and added saddle racks and bridle hooks. Super pleased with how it turned out!

I love my cat, and felt she needed a pretty feeding dish. I stole some old spindles from my sister's garage, cut them down and threw this plan together. It was actually harder than I expected because getting into tight little spaces with my drill to drill in the pocket holes was almost imposible. The wood split, nothing is square and the holes for the dishes are messy...but it doesn't really matter, it looks good from a distance and my cat doesn't judge. Not that I know of, anyway.

We wanted to create more seating space and a cosier breakfast experience with this nook. We made the benches with hinges for storage. The table was customized to fit our space and we chose to change the legs rather than buying the $20 each legs. We love how it turned out!

My first brag post ...Fun to make

Our Friends wanted a new bed frame in the worst way. They gave my husband free will to design a bed for them and this is what he came up with. headboard is made out of car siding. has 2 hinged doors, 2 battery operated led lights, lots of shelves. basic rails and foot board!

My son had been asking if I could build him a desk for months, so I finally decided to get it done! I found this to be a fairly easy build and with some minor changes, will likely build additional ones in the future.

Tables i have made and sold

This was my first project!!
This plan took me about three weeks start to finish working off and on (multiple hours on weekend days). I widened the table to 48 inches (the dimensions for my table are approx 84" long x 48" wide. Used 4-2x10s and 1-2x12 for the table top and 1x8s for the bread board ends.

This easy project made me the best Aunt ever! I made it for my nieces and nephews for Christmas. It was such a huge hit that one of them threw up all over it from laughing so hard. :)

The garage was freezing cold but they stayed there all evening once they discovered their gift.

Very Easy project, the plans are straight forward. The kids love having a table to play lego's and we love being able to hide everything away. Very Nice Table. When the girls get older and the Plywood cover shows signs of wear from much use, I'll probably replace the cover with one made from pine 1x6's biscuit-joined to give a nice textured look, but still with the storage for games and stuff.

This was the first project for me and my 15 year old son. He wanted a large, sturdy desk for his room. We loved the plans and we think it turned out pretty well.
