says: Ok…I’m in. My impossible is organizing my fabric stash! After moving around a ton over the past few years, I finally have a place to keep all of this fabric we’ve been dragging around with us. it is a seriously gigantic amount, but there’s no excuse what it can’t be organized. This is just the shove in the right direction I’ve needed! I’m in!!!!!
Tanna from The Brick Street Bungalow

Jamie from The Bullock 5
she is going to be working on her FirePlace (a big project)
Jess from Making Over the Martins

Deidre from Simply Simplisticated
says: What a Super Motivational challenge!My most daunting challenge right now is to make over my TINY OUTDATED UGLY kitchen with no extra money just using elbow grease creativity, frugality, paint and some old lumber from out in the garage and a whole lotta prayer!!! 🙂 Im IN!
Melanie from French Blue and Peach Pink
says: she has some cool things up her sleeve!
Rik from Cordial Chaos
says…and I say WOW…what a great challenge! I actually have a couple of things that I’m challenging myself to by my 2 major challenges take me well past January. I’m training to run a 5k for the first time in my life in March and you may have noticed my 366 days of pictures that I have been posting about.
Dawn from Dawns Place & More

Jessica from Kielman from Mom 4 Real
says: Sounds like fun! My impossible project is to upgrade our half bath. It has a builders grade mirror that I would like to frame out with molding, and old light fixtures that I would like to replace, along with needing a new paint! This is just what I needed to motivate!
Heidi
says: I think this is also a great way to really start fulfilling 2012 resolutions too. An impossible for me has always been just living in the present day, not worrying about tomorrow, the next week/month, or the next year. I feel like the stress of the future has led me away from the beauty of “today” and the present moment. I’m hoping to spend this month tackling this impossible head-on. It may not be a craftsy type of impossible, but this is definitely encourage me to face the impossible of mine (how cool is this challenge!
Check out Miss Redo on her Blog!
Katherine from Katherines Corner
says: Hoping my impossible (although I don’t know if I really consider it impossible, giggle) will be possible this year. I want to be discovered, my blog my shop and my website. It is my goal this year to be a success! To go to bed at night knowing I had a successful personal business day…Smooches and hugs and wishes that your impossible is always possible : ) That’s a WOW!
Kasey from These Five of Mine
says: My “impossible” is recipe organization! My recipes are tucked in dog eared cookbooks and nearly impossible to find when I want a particular one. I will tackle this monstrous task this month and finally get them organized! Thanks for the shove (when you are done Kasey…you can come and do mine : )
Gina from The Shabby Creek Cottage
she is taking on her laundry room and has tons of the before pictures on her blog!
has joined us!
I have most of my house is impossible. My new years goal was to “get my house in order”…. where to start. where the rubber hits the road… the kitchen. I plan on having every cubic inch Cleared, Culled & Cleaned My three C’s starting in the south corner which is the pantry and working around the entire room. Very mythodicaly and loosing about one out of ever seven items. we shall see. A bit of every thing. I love this kind of challange. I really want my craft room done, but that just seems to big at first… I will be gone for two weeks… A 25 year anniversary Cruise so I will be gone woo hoo!!! However I hope to get back with a drive and ennergy to start fresh and get on with life… How exciting!! on

Thanks for the mention. I posted an update last night (1/23) about my project and might have more this week. Looking forward to everyone’s results next week!
Pamela R says
Well I was originally planning on creating a very “Imagine the Impossibilities” challenge post. My challenge? Baking pretzels! However life always seems to get in the way and actually threw me a much more “Impossibly Possible” challenge! Along with it came the need to renovate our whole home in only 9 months! Feel free to check out my first post on the subject as I unveil the surprise and the journey that goes along with it!
