Apothecary Console Plans




I've always LOVED the look of an Apothecary cabinet.   All those teeny tiny drawers.
I love the New England style and the Robins egg color!

But wait, this is much more simple to make than it appears, it only has 4 drawers



Ana White has a two step plan to guide you along.  Now you can make your very own.

*This project is for the more advanced builder*
I suggest starting with something small - like the distressed bench and work up from there.

The Apothecary Cabinet plans - step one are here

The Apothecary Cabinet plans - step two are here








Distressed Bench - Plans from start finish



I love the distressed look of this bench against the clean traditional moldings and walls. 
This bench would be a great addition in a family entryway.  
A place to sit down and take your shoes off.  
I'd put a few baskets underneath to store shoes and it would be perfect. 

Ana White will show you how to make this bench from start to finish, 
including the distressed painting technique. 

The Bench plans are here

Toddler Sized Upholstered Daybed Plans


Theresa from Small Joys In Life 
made this toddler bed from the free plans off of Ana White's Blog.

I found Theresa's photo's on Flickr where Ana has a brag site.
There are so many people who have successfully built furniture from Ana's plans. 
I am amazed. 

I think Theresa's Toddler Day Bed may be my favorite.   I love the size, shape 
and the fabric she chose is perfect.   Visit Theresa's blog here
for a photo tutorial of her making the bed.
