Knock Off Wood

I recently discovered Knock Off Wood. The woman is amazing and thanks to her blog I have about a 100 projects added to my list.
We only have a circular saw, but many of the projects are so simple and of coarse cost effective. Meaning perhaps even I could do it.

For example these adorable kid storage chairs in her under $20 category.


And I'd love to make matching farmhouse toddler beds for Saydee and Elliana. Also under $20.
This cute one was made by Ali here.

Exact blueprints, building materials and cost are included. I have now been totally inspired to make our own furniture. Bless those nice people who share their talents!

Oh wow! I'm Gwen's cousin, and I stumbled onto your blog from hers. Anywho, my friend is the one that made that bed! If you'd like to see more of her rockin' awesome skills, you can check her out at http://littlebitsofbliss.blogspot.com/ She and her husband have done awesome things with there home and fixing up old furniture and things. P.s., I love your black wall. I'm planning on painting a wall charcoal in the guest room, then doing stylized solid white trees over it and simple white bird silhouettes. I <3 contrast and simplicity. Thank you for posting.
