The January Jumpstart Contest: 6 Categories & Schedule

10-29-doitnow.jpgWe're rolling on, and we start next week! What's your project going to be? What category are you in?

Join us!

This week we're getting ready here at the AT offices, hammering out the prizes, our own editorial projects and doing something novel: establishing six winning categories. Instead of three or four top places, we're going to be looking for winners in the following categories...

 
 

Best Use of Fabric
Best Use of Paint or Finish
Biggest Wow Factor
Most Likely to Be Widely Copied
2 More - TBD by the judges when we see what we get

Is it me, or is the site just terribly confusing with all the multiple "best of 2007" posts mixed in with new posts? I don't even see people commenting. This was the only place I could find to even comment! Please - talk about cluttered - I'm visiting the site less and less because it's just too overwhelming.

hmmm...I was hoping to recover my couch for this contest, but haven't yet decided on a fabric, so I'm running through the list to find another project that might conceivably get done on time...
