Easy to Build Modern Farmhouse Coffee Table

[@williamgallaher1377]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, you are a true inspiration for many many of us. Really unbelievably simple and easy to do plans and easily adjustable plans. I can’t wait to get back home to Florida I have been buying the few tools that I don’t have to get some of your products done. Thank you very much for sharing it looks like I’ll save myself and my family some serious money!!! Have a great day and live a safe and happy life, Sincerely, William Gallaher

[@stilcrazychris]

Wow, just wow Ana.... Great design hun, just lovely. I Know it was harder to put together then you let on. You make it all look so easy. You never seem to amaze me w/everything going on in your head. Looking forward to the next project Chris from Missouri

[@pamelaallen6543]

I have been watching you for a long time, Grace was just a little pumpkin and you were building her beds and all sorts of goodies. My oldest great granddaughter was a baby and now she is 11. Wow! time flies!

[@AnaWhiteDIY]

Awe, it goes fast:)

[@lynjermey6423]

I'm never sure which tools to buy and all the tutorial videos show people who use them regularly, it's so nice to see you use it for the first time and figure it out. It's actually way more helpful for me. I may have to invest in that one. Thank you Ana.

[@masonarcher2998]

Thanks God, a channel where plans are actually provided! Subscribed, surprised I wasn’t already! As say that because I actually used your plans to build my son’s toddler stand, we love it and people always ask where we got it! Thanks Ana.

[@AnaWhiteDIY]

Awesome! Thank you and welcome to our channel!

[@jamesatkins3992]

Awesome job on the table 👌👌

[@garynagle3093]

Great table! Simple and functional. Love the look on your face when opening the new Kreg tool. 🤪

[@stunningmisadventures]

Girl, your channel is GOALS!!! This coffee table is great too! We can’t wait to watch more of your videos and see your creativity!

[@boboconnor1403]

I really like the look. It's like a country simple trestle table. Even your stain choice goes well with your decor. You have a beautiful home. I even liked your herringbone layout of your tile at the stairs.

[@alfonsomunoz4424]

Great looking table! I've actually never heard that tip of angling in the nails. Thanks for that.

[@elijahcory4848]

i know Im asking randomly but does anyone know a tool to get back into an instagram account..? I stupidly lost the account password. I would love any assistance you can give me!

[@elijahcory4848]

@Gunner Jesus I really appreciate your reply. I found the site on google and im in the hacking process atm. Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.

[@elijahcory4848]

@Gunner Jesus it did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy! Thanks so much, you really help me out !

[@gunnerjesus4054]

@Elijah Cory No problem :)

[@codacreator6162]

You are SO awesome! Your designs are incredible, your instructions easy to follow, and you always cover those little details that save us newbies a LOT of work (and misery)! Bonus: FREE plans! Incredible! If I ever get any good at this, I hope I can be as inspirational and cool as you are. Thanks, Ana (and cameraman, husband)!

[@AnaWhiteDIY]

Thank you so much!

[@paulastrickland2259]

What a great job Ana. You inspire me. I'm going to build the shiplap wall for the tv and the heater. Thank you for sharing

[@AnaWhiteDIY]

Wonderful, happy building!

[@sharonamadi7076]

Ana, first of all how do you not have a million subscribers by now. I love the work that you do I think you're so inspiring. I don't know if you have it on your site but I would love to see you do like a beginners video into tools. watching you makes me want to delve into this world of building and I have wanted to for quite a while. But when it comes to tools it's overwhelming. I go into one of the big box stores and you look at all these tools and you don't know what's good and you don't know what's not so great and you want to spend your money once. you don't want to buy something that's inexpensive but also cheap and then six months later realize that you need to upgrade. now I realize that I probably can't afford the Sol system that you have but I guess what I would like to go into a store is knowing what I need knowing what is required to make the job easier. so I was thinking a tool tutorial would be fantastic to go over things like a really great drill the bits that you need what is necessary vs. What is really great if you can afford it and so on and so on. If you already have this type of video out there or a series of videos can you point me in the right direction. I think a video series would be fabulous.

[@Riverside_Homestead_Off_Grid]

I love it! We're building our new little house and this will fit perfectly in!

[@mandyleeson1]

Thank you for sharing, Ana.

[@billguyer5211]

Ana ,you get excited with a new tool, wow, your my kinda lady, lol, good video as usual. Love the table, great family.

[@dennisthrush6996]

Wow!!! You are beautiful and so are your tables.

[@valpal5411]

You are awesome! I love this channel. My brother and I are just starting to build and we find your channel the most help!

[@damionarchibald3734]

I did this build for about $90 in the NYC metro area. My family loves it, great addition to our living room. Will be doing the end table next. Thank you Ana.

[@AnaWhiteDIY]

Fantastic!

[@gameoftones77]

I built this table tonight, and so far I think it’s an awesome design and really simple build. Really cool, thanks for the inspiration!

[@AnaWhiteDIY]

Great to hear!

[@maehay4065]

I love the style of your new farmhouse coffee table. And the color of the stain. I see you added the black medal that makes it really tie in with your project last week! 👍

[@williamclark9743]

Besides the fact you have an amazing family, I really enjoy your videos and work. I'm considering this project and doing the matching tall hallway table as a set. Hopefully mind will be a nice and professional looking as yours.

[@AnaWhiteDIY]

Wonderful, thank you so much!

[@STmgmt]

I would love this as an end table design! I guess shorten the top and bottom pieces to fit? Lovely and very unique design.

[@diylogics9204]

I like how Ana will never forget to smile.

[@hfwgunner]

Thank you, I plan to make the set for my daughter.

[@TBONENYC]

Amazing! Can’t wait to build it! Thank you

[@robb4751]

This was a great project. I love the finished result. I just want to add one more tip to your work. You have great hair and all I could see happening when you were using your miter saw with your long hair hanging down in front out you was your hair being sucked into the saw. Please pull your hair back. Shop safety is number one. Trust me when I say this because I've learned from more than one experience. 😂 😂 Love your work and the simplicity of it all. Makes it great for the average person to be able to make awesome projects.

[@truenorthlivingmanitoba]

Nice work Ana. I thought for sure you would put in a drawer. Awesome build.

[@scottrisch9233]

[@sueschultz9358]

Just to let Ana's readers know... our Lowes store has the double kregs jigs on sale for $28! Maybe your local store does too! Ours was on sale until November sometime. Good luck

[@AnaWhiteDIY]

Thanks is so much! That’s a great deal!

[@freddiepittman5409]

How about showing us a tray to go on top of that table..Love that design..

[@robertbridgen2950]

I was going to purchase the bigger kreg jig and the wife said try the 320 in case you do not like it. Now the 320 kreg jig is the only jig I use. Well worth the money.

[@carolgonzalez2488]

Ana eres una inspiración en la manera tan fácil en que trabajas y conviertes la madera. Felicidades a pesar que no hablo Inglés me encanta la manera en como muestras los pasos y no me es nada difícil entender así que estoy pensando en hacer algún mueble siguiendo tu técnica. Gracias

Sounds like Kreg and Ryobi needs to get with you on sponsors...table looks great yes have the plans now....👍

[@belizeguy]

Very sleek! Thanks

[@louannnance637]

Thank you very nice

[@Matdog2010]

Powerful!

[@JJoy-bk8yr]

Hey Ana. I love the table but have a small suggestion that won't change the look at all. Right now the top of the bottom (you know what I mean) could be subject to shear. To eliminate shear, put some 2.75" high blocking in bottom tray, under the legs, to help transfer load directly to the floor. Say you have a New Year's Eve party and someone dances on the table . . .

[@melissapoole8580]

Um, girl, you need your own TV show. You are amazing!

[@AnaWhiteDIY]

Thanks for the love!

[@King-pb6hi]

Can you show us your setup for your Miter Saw and how to make it. Including the dead stops. My setup is horrible and new to woodworking. Yet to find any solid plans out there. It would be very much appreciated!! Thank you, love your work.

[@AnaWhiteDIY]

Great idea, I will see what I can do!

[@ContrastY]

Very nice work

[@markquinlan4876]

Ana, thank you so much for all of your content! This is beautiful for sure. Question for you; What about wood movement inside the "frames" of the top and bottom panel? Do you think or have you noticed that being an issue? Please let us know and once again, thank you so much for all of your wonderful content. God Bless.

[@hacksawjimthuggin7411]

If you built the skirt first you can glue and brad nail the 1x10 to the top. Or do that and the pocket holes! Lol more than one way to skin a cat! Either way, I love it and will be adding it to my plans. Do you use any polyurethane to protect your stuff or is it just stain?

[@scottbionicnerf8727]

I just found your channel today. My wife wants me to build 1 of these coffee table designs, she doesn't care which, she wants me to build 1.

My hub is thanking you for getting jig into a mini size....more practical for us! : )

[@kgil35]

Thank you for your willingness to share. Quick question regarding building a larger table. How wide can you go before the corner supports need something in the middle? Can you do three 1x12s? At some point I would imagine you would need a support in the the center of the sides? I hope this makes sense.

[@AnaWhiteDIY]

I would not go more than 3' wide without added supports.

[@darrellhubbard9745]

I'm going to use wood dowels too join the (2) 1x10 board together.

[@jcrefasi1]

I love the wrought iron brackets. Are they just cosmetic or do they help reinforce the corner end

[@jinpingyang6015]

Spending 1K on Pottery Barn coffee table. Wish I am this handy!

[@fizbinsfire]

Simple suggestion if your not going to square up those joined sides with a hand plane or table saw might I suggest alternating your pocket holes on both boards. Putting the pocket holes on only one board is not as strong as if you had alternating holes on both boards.

[@ruthhoy6290]

Nice

[@interestedobserver9352]

Great project. Are those corner accents just L brackets and are they painted and glued on?

[@stonecrazy3]

Ana, do you have to deal with wood expansion where you live when adding edge boards to projects or bread boards to tables? Here the humidity is to bad to use it without using the proper joinery to allow for wood movement.

[@AnaWhiteDIY]

We haven’t had any issues but if you live in a humid climate it could be an issue. I’d use plywood for the tip and bottom in that situation

[@jeanettebjerkenes1232]

Love this table. Can this be converted to a dinner table?

Ana excelente mesa

[@diosesplenitud]

Nice!

[@trevors8577]

14:15 I'd have added another 2x4 above that so the legs are sitting on the underside of the table surface. Currently everything on the table goes through the brad nails and glue on the side skirts and then to the legs and then through the brad nails and side skirts on the base to the floor. Though I like to make my stuff strong enough to stand on so I build accordingly :) Otherwise it's a great looking table!!

[@Joe-zz3vx]

Where would you have put another 2x4? On the underside of the table top so the legs would be nailed into that 2x4 on the underside? Thanks

[@JasonECI]

It looks really great!! I was wondering how you stain inside the triangle spaces top and bottom each pillar, seems more difficult than the previous one if you don't stain before assembling them?
