Tanner,
Browse around the forum. Use the search function.
Many, myself included, recommend a simple box, or even a more elaborate box, if your brave. With finger joints.
See, if you can make a squared box good, you're on your way.
It doesn't have to be big either.
I recommend something smallish, like a "man" box for the dresser to put your pocket stuff in.
Let's you get you feet wet without getting overwhelmed with a big project.
Once you have the basics of a box, then move on to something fancier. Say a bird house, with the angle of the roof and such.
There's a couple of ideas.
And don't get dismayed if your first project isn't as good as you'd like it to be. Just make your next one a little better learning from the first.
You can do it!
Buy tools as you need them, and get the best you can afford.
You don't need a full shop before you start. That comes in time.
Good Luck and work Safe!
Sonny
