There are a few blogs I have in my reader so I won’t miss a post. One day one of those pointed to Knock Off Wood and it has been a daily treat ever since. The owner of the blog, Ana, describes herself as a ‘stay at home mom’. What she also does is build tables, chairs, bookcases etc. that are copies of Pottery Barn, Crate and Barrel and similar retailers. AND … this is the best part – she creates and publishes easy to use plans so you can build them too. The blog is full of comments and pictures from people who have built their first piece of furniture. If your inner carpenter is dying to get out, or you want to encourage the inner carpenter in someone you know, visit Knock Off Wood and get inspired. Today’s post has pictures of farm tables for inspiration and plans to build one for less than $50. This is enough to make me move my car into the cold and create a workshop in my garage.
I am sure there are established ways to copy some of the pictures on the blog here. I am still learning all about the how to’s of blogging so I didn’t do that. Click on the links in the article and enjoy.
