I loved the post from Lady Goats on the PB inspired daily system and the modifications from debandtom25!
I knew this was an answer to clean up our counter, before items even make it to the counter this is right at the door when you walk in our house!
I didn't use a picture frame but used plywood with molding of my choice for the "frame." I selected paint at Home Depot and just purchased the sample paint in three different colors. The wording was done on a computer and used as a stencil (cut the letters into contact paper, stuck contact paper on and painted).
This project was inspired by the post I found on Ana-White.com however I changed some of the dimensions and cut list to make it my own. I built one of these for my Mother and her and her friends keep talking about it to this day.

Aren't you concerned about eating/drinking on a pressure treated surface?
Our own mix for the sliding door console. Stained the entire unit with Jacobean stain, then light grey chalk paint. Distressed with 150/220 grit and waxed. Top and shelves are Jacobean with 4 coats of satin polyurethane. Absolutely love how this came out. Roughly $300 spend at home depot on all supplies. Wife and I finished in about 17 hours this weekend.

Whew! I am a total novice. I have never used a saw in my life, but with a little bit of instruction from my husband i was able to do it almost completely on my own. Even as a beginner i could have finished it in a full day, but i was trying to work on it during my daughters naps so it took almost a week!
This was my fifth project and it went pretty well. I ended up having to trim a little off the top of the door after I had it assembled because I wasn't paying attention to detail and built it to fit the back opening. It was pretty simple to size it down, though. I finished it off with some leftover black paint that I used for the top of my workbench last summer. Super happy with the way it turned out!
I followed the directions and made two of the same shelf -- using a expresso gel stain. I love it in my bathroom!
I haven't put the finish on it yet, gonna leave that up to the recipient. Added a couple of modifications, most noticeably the top shelf, grated workspace, and "side panels" for extra mounting /hanging space. Great design! She's sturdy.
Started the project last fall and finally finished it this Feb. Check out the cool weather station!
This was my first major project I built from this site. I would say that I am a beginner builder with only a little experience building small things. This was my first big project and I built it piece by piece over the course of a few months. This was my 4 year old's birthday gift. I bought my first Kreg Jig Jr. (I already want the master system!) and got a lot of confidence by doing this project. It was pretty straight forward, although the painting and sanding took way longer than I thought! I pretty much stuck to the plans and did not change much. The only thing I did was add hand hole cut outs on the stairs and I chose not to cut out a side window because that side was against a wall anyways. I am SO excited about this project and will be posting MANY MORE builds from here.

Great job dude! I bet your daughter loves it. I am going to start building one for my nephews this week, hopefully it looks half as good as yours!
This site as ever so helpful and vital to the completion of these chairs. Honestly,this project was the first time I had taken stock lumber and constructed something from it. I am handy by my own account,but never attempted anything like this before. Great site. If not for Ana white and this website,I'd have 2 less chairs. It is very rewarding building something from scratch. I'm sure this was the 1st of many projects and ideas I will get from this site. A+++. Thank you very much.

Thank you so much, Ana, for posting these plans. My husband built the storage locker in a few hours last Saturday. Our only modification was to use beadboard for the backing instead of plywood, and to switch out the 1x12's for 1x16 project panels to add depth so the backpacks will fit. I love how it turned out and now there is no more tripping over backpacks! I can't wait for our next project.
I had a girls night in and we each made out our art using the nesting family tree sign. I put together the cedar fencing signs per Ana's instructions and we all brought supplies we had in the garage and we painted away! Thank you so much!
Built one for my niece, my daughter's is next!
Determined to get back into woodworking, and teach my daughter some life skills, we set out to build something easy... and it was! She did almost all the measurements, cutting and nailing. I tried staining, thought we got a nice wood color but got grey instead. Still looked great. Thanks for the plans! So excited for our next project!
My wife and I were looking for a "Big Girl" bed for our 3yo. After searching online and in-person and coming up more disappointed each time, I found your website and plans for the captains bed with trundle and I knew it was something I could build! I've built 3 dining room tables with benches and other furniture before, and so I started getting materials together. I took a solid day to make sure my measurements were on point and a week later, we had the bed constructed. I couldn't stop there so I built a book shelf on top of an old cabinet we found to repurpose. Thank you for allowing us to share our projects with you!

Awesome!
He did a great job! They're beautiful! May I ask where you got the cushions? I'm thinking of making a few of these myself and would like recommendations :)
