Thank you.... finally a construction video that does not talk down to me and treat me like an idiot. This is the shelf video I have been hunting for. I am sharing this!!!
Hi, Ana... I have been looking at DIY bookshelf videos for a couple hours, I stumbled upon yours & only got into it 26 seconds & thought, "WOW! This craftsman is a 21st century phenomenon"! The shelf cofigurator is awesome! Looking forward to checking out the rest of the video, but it impressed me enough that I needed to pause & just tell you, "WELL DONE"!!!
The nice thing about Ana projects is she gives minor details and handy TIPS and tricks of the trade like what screw size she is using and why she used Ply, the reasons of using spaces in shelfs etc.. This is really helpful as most of the people who are watching these videos are new to all this and want to be educated on minor details and steps as how things are made. My compliments Ana.
This is really great! I want to build my own bookcase with a deeper base as a work area and this not only inspires me but provides all the guidance to take on the project. Thank you so much for all you contribute, you make this world a better place, we need more people like Ana White, more builders and sharers and less complainers!
I am just gonna add this the 'Ana White Folder' I have started to save all of your awesome videos! LOL!! I can't wait to build this in my new house! You are Empowering this Widow! I can do it! :) Thanks again Beautiful! Xx
I’ve been following your website for years and I wanted to say how much your time and effort is appreciated. You and your husband’s generosity transcends anything/anyone I’ve ever encountered in all walks of life and business. There is so much to say, but I will keep it short and simply say thank you. May God bless you and your family with a lifetime of love, happiness, and success!
What an amazing thing/gift to do for your Mother. She's going to love it. My grandfather, who was a carpenter, made my bookshelf when I was a little kid & I still have it & I will never depart from it ever. Great job Ana, Chris from Missouri
You are such a blessing to those of us who are beginner builders! Thank you for sharing your knowledge, tips & tricks, and even your mistakes. Happy Thanksgiving and many blessings.
OH. MY. GOODNESS! WHY have you never come up on my feed before??? I am THRILLED! New subscriber here and THANK YOU for this video, because I am looking to build shelves in my new small home for a library and THIS was PERFECT!
thanks for the great tutorials, and for not skimming over the details. i got myself a pocket hole jig after watching your videos and i can't wait to start making stuff :)
WOW!! Great work. So nicely done. I've been wanting to build custom shelves for some time and after watching this video I think i'm going to go for it. Thanks, Ana!!
I love this. Shelf Help was such a good idea. I haven't checked it out yet but I love the idea. One thought was that it's probably expensive to buy. I'm so cheap I'm always trying to save on materials. BUT... I have a booth at a local antique mall. And I'm finding that the time it takes to process the materials myself is more valuable to be spent building so I can get more pieces made quicker. So I think this is going to be super helpful. And this shelving turned out great!
Oh my goodness! The configurator is a godsend to a newbie like me! I've been wanting to build a desk height, 7 ft long bookcase for my craft room, but I've been dreading the math involved! You've just made my project a breeze! Thank you so very much!
I'm not sure if anyone suggested it already but if you're having difficulty with the crown molding options in AK, I would suggest you combine the base board with the crown you're using now, and make a frieze out of the two. You're right with the current crown looking too small, esp. compared to the base.
I love your videos. I've been watching for a while. Finally found shelf help online, great website. I also have printed off a number of plans (or should I say my wife has). Thanks.
Thanks Ana! I just ordered from your Shelfhelpnow site and my order is arriving tomorrow. Thank you for making it easy!! Quick questions; - What glue are you using? - Do you have to primer before paint? - What kind of paint are you using?
Thank you so much for this video. We have been looking at your site and wondering how to build our own bookshelf. Happy Thanksgiving and thank you again.
Thank you, I googled it and found it 😊. I’m going to attempt to make the corner bookshelf like the one in this tutorial. You should get commission from Kreg because I bought the k5 pocket hole jig thing lol because you make it look easy, I want to get the circular saw guide next 😊. Thank you for inspiring us all and making it not so scary to have a go 😊
Love, love, love it! Will you please teach us how to build a built-in for existing openings on the sides of fireplaces? We have thick ugly drywall shelves and drywall fireplace mantel that we desperately need help to get rid of! Thanks in advance! 😀
I noticed you painted the plywood directly. Do you not need to prime first? I am getting ready to paint my bookshelves and would love to skip the primer if possible.
This awesome I’m going to tackle my first built in for my daughters home and this was very helpful. Going to check out shelf help for some plans! Thank you and Happy Thanksgiving to all!
Wow just found your channel today really really enjoyed it. Just one thing please get a radio microphone it lets down a professional looking programme. Just my opinion of course.

I love this portal AC. We can move around the house. Definitely need it for the hot summer.

The crown molding looks fine.

Hi Ana, love, love ,love everything you design and build. Would love to see the bookshelves installed.
It looks amazing!
Nice job. I just hope it fits through the door! ;)
(I had a neighbor who built a canoe, and then had to add a window to his workshop to get it out.)
Oh my I hadn’t even thought of that 🙄. I think it will go on the side though!
nice works i love wood working
Me too!
I love this channel
Thanks Jimmy!
Beautiful Ana!!!
Love your work!
Thank you!

Very nice, thank you.
Wowww, that looks great!!!
I think it's beautiful
Turned out great.
We're buying a house, and one of the rooms is my study. Thank you for this video!
Glad it was helpful!
That is just beautiful!!!
Very nice!
Thanks!
You are a genius!!
Thank you for sharing the plans for this beautiful book case. Do you have a video on how to add doors? Thanks
Not at this time, we do have similar bookshelves with barn doors added.
Thank you for this video 👍🏻
My pleasure!
It's beautiful.
Glad you think so!
Beautiful
Thank you!
Beautiful project! I am curious as to how your transported it?!
Fantabulous love it
Nice job!
Thanks!
That’s awesome! Thank You
Thank you!
Stupendo 🤩

Hi , I’m Chris, you don’t mind me sending you a direct message, I’d love to talk to you
Do you have a recommendation for a paint sprayer ?
Very nice 👍
Thank you 👍
You are so talented 👏. Thank you! Where do you buy the cabinet doors?
We like barkerdoor.com, thanks for watching!
Yay, I’ve been waiting for you to make this 😊, thank you very much 👍. I need to make mine to go in a corner, any suggestions please?
Google "Ana White Corner Bookshelf" I have quite a few plans that will help!
I love it!
This awesome I’m going to tackle my first built in for my daughters home and this was very helpful. Going to check out shelf help for some plans!
Thank you and Happy Thanksgiving to all!
Awesome! Thank you, Happy Thanksgiving:)
Beautiful Job! Wondering, do you have any video for closets that look like this?
We have multiple closet plans, I'd recommend googling "Ana White Closet", all my plans are free!:)
Love it! Would you be able to make plans for a craft station like the Dreambox?
Those are amazing, maybe some day!
Very beautiful what is your process for painting this and your kitchen cabinets
I love it, so glad you share this been wanting built-ins. Can you share how much this cost?
Very nice. Much easier than learning SketchUp period is there a nailing spacing for the back six 12 in?
Exactly what I needed! Quick question, you didn't seem to have used glue while assembling? Is it not required? Thanks a lot!!
The back was glued and nailed.
Glue would really add strength to the pocket holes which don’t bring a lot of strength.
Wow just found your channel today really really enjoyed it.
Just one thing please get a radio microphone it lets down a professional looking programme. Just my opinion of course.
Thanks for watching, we are always trying to improve the viewing experience!
Was your crown molding pine or hemlock? We live in Matsu and are having trouble finding pine crown molding. Still need to check SBS.
Just came across your channel & I love it! You inspire me!! Thank you!
Can I request a large (but easy) dog house? Pleeeeease! 😃
