Bunny trug
This was my first wood working project. I made this bunny Easter basket for my son's first Easter. Everyone loved it. I can't wait to try other projects!

Industrial chandelier for our dining room made from black iron pipe pieces from Lowes and some leftover black walnut scraps. It was a sometimes frustrating design-as-you go project that required loads of help from my electrical engineer husband. Love how it finally turned out!
Simple beginner project. Would have preferred a more durable wood, but still a fun and quick project.
First I'd like to thank Ana for everything she does. Without her i would have never started building furniture, and without her I would have never picked up Google Sketchup and learned how to design my own furniture.
Ana, I can't thank you enough for the skills, hobby, and confidence you have given me. Thank you thank you thank you!
I attached this to the floating shelves plan because it is what inspired us to design this. And I chose intermediate because of figureing out the angles and for finding the studs in the wall and properly/securely mounting it so little ones don't get hurt.
Since moving into our new home Matt and I have been using my great-grandmother's old sideboard as a tv stand. Our house (and living room) is very small so I've been wanting to mount the tv on the wall in the corner and Matt's been wanting to buy a smaller tv stand. I did not want to do it his way because we have a large hyper dog running around knocking everything over, lol.
So after recieving an extra tv wall mount from my parents and mounting the tv in the corner like I wanted, we brainstormed and created this "floating" table/shelf to hold Matt's game systems and our dvd's. Its off the floor and out of Buck's destruction path, but it also made the room look so much larger!
***This plan was not designed to hold the weight of a tv. While it is plenty strong enough to hold the movies, game systems, dvd-vcr, and the chance his 6 year old decides she's a rock climber, we have no idea its actual weight capasity.
My Grandaughter wanted a Baby Bed for her dolls. I made one for her. and one for a little friend of hers. I just used 2x2's and plywood, then used rattle can spray paint to finish.
I was looking for an inexpensive way to dress up my deck and when I saw your tapered plant boxes I knew that was the gem I needed. I used pickets from a fence we took down and some 1 inch wood strips. I am planning on making more to line the new fence.
This is my very first woodworking project! My oldest daughter badly needed a bigger bookcase... I made this last year and it's already completely stuffed full of books now! Home Depot ripped the MDF for me, hubby helped me put it together and then I finished it. Since it is tall and narrow, the sides were bowing inward. I decided NOT to make ALL shelves adjustable, so I made two of them part of the bookcase. Squared things up nicely. The rest of the shelves are removable though.
This the recent remodel of our guest bedroom. Its a modified plan from a fancy farmhouse bed that allows room for tubs to be stored underneath, three of the ledges, and the nightstands are old wooden crates that have been sanded down, painted, and mounted to the wall. We decided to do vinyl stickers as the "headboard" and felt the birds on a wire made for a good look. The lamps we made from wine bottles with labels we liked using westinghouse lamp kits. Thank you Ana White for these plans and ideas!
I built this table in about 3 hours with 5 2x4s yellow pine for the total cost of around $17 total...thats not including the kreg jig screws or stain. I deviated from the original plans for the top to try something different with the 45 degree mitre cuts. It came out great but I had to review a youtube video on making the kreg pilot holes at the 45 degree angles to attach the corners together. I then cut the (4) 2x4s to fill out the top and used kreg jig screws to attach. Very nice instructions by Ana and after posting to my FACEBOOK page, I'm getting orders! :)
What a great little feeder! I didn't put mine in the window yet, because the screens are on for the summer. I screwed a metal flange into the bottom of the bird feed then screwed a metal pipe into the flange. Then put it in the ground under the window. I'll add the suction cups and put it in the window in the fall. I love watching the birds!
All made from an 8 foot packing crate.
This is a piece I made out of scraps just for fun. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out and how functional it is!
I looked on the Tryde Console Table and Simple Console Table as a reference and just figured out the dimensions from what material I had. I also added a piece of wood in the center, and winged it with the shelf on the bottom.
Took no time at all - 1 hour start to finish on a rainy day. Built it for the little kids but kids came out of the "woodwork" from all over the neighbourhood. Easy, fun and cheap! May add some old rubber bike tires beneath the seats to protect the wood that comes in contact with the ground. Didn't bother with a padded seat - an off-cut of plywood, with sanded edges works just fine and will be easy to replace if it starts to weather.
Built from the King Farmhouse bed plans

do you have a boxspring on your bed as well? I am curious how high a mattress and boxspring will sit if i make the side rails and frame

Did you use a metal bed frame or did you make the side rails and frame? i am curious how high my mattress will sit above the footboard because I want to make the side rails and use slats. I have a boxspring that I will be using.
I love Ana's plan for lockers! This project is so rewarding and was very straight forward to build. I added a fourth locker and a shoe bench to accomodate my children. I also added a toekick behind the face frame so things won't get lost underneath. Instead of using 1 x 12's, I ripped plywood into 4 equal strips. They came out to be slightly less than 12 inches each as you have to account for the saw blade. Each locker has three hooks, a place for shoes, and a bin for winter gear. I made the fabric bins and bench cushion following online tutorials. I set the hooks according to the height of my children, so even my youngest can hang up her things. This project took me about a week and a half to complete, including the sewing portion. It is very sturdy and the 1x4's along the back allowed me to attach the unit to several wall studs. I placed the 1x4's(with hooks) low enough that the heavy backpacks will also have the shelf for support. The shoe bench measures 48" in length at the longest point. It is the same depth as the locker unit and fits perfectly behind the locker face frame. Thank you so much for your wonderful plan!
Ana Whites easy to follow plans. Lake house. Love the way it turned out!
Entryway bench, modified size to fit space and added cushion. ** Cost includes foam and fabric for cushion. Bench itself cost about $60.
I used a pallet I found in a burn pile, cut it down, added a bottom piece from one of the other cross pieces, painted, stenciled, and covered it with a coat of poly. I then added potting soil and herbs, and screwed it into the studs of our porch. It's off the ground so my dogs can't get into it and my chickens won't sample the plants!
This is a customized version of a farmtable that my wife found here!
