First a note about Iron Craft 2015. We’ve decided to end this year on challenge #25 since we are smack dab in the middle of the holidays and the challenge would go into next year. So, who did all twenty-five challenges? I think I did.
Now on to 2016! We will be back for a sixth year of the Iron Craft Challenge on Wednesday, January 6th and hope you will all join us. Here is how it works.
- Every other Wednesday we announce a new Iron Craft challenge. The challenge maybe based around a theme, a technique or a material. We try to make the themes broad enough to encompass different craft techniques.
- You then have thirteen days to create a project based on that challenge.
- You don’t need to do every challenge, we realize people have lives, but trying to do as many as you can is part of the fun.
- On reveal day, the Tuesday two weeks from the challenge announcement, everyone shares their projects in the Iron Craft group on Flickr.
- Commenting on each others pictures is not required, but it does make it more fun.
- We share all the finished projects in a round-up on Just Crafty Enough.
Are there Any rules?
- The first rule is to be nice in comments on Flickr and the site. This is a challenge against yourself not each other.
- Each project challenge should be a new project done in the two week time limit, no showing off old projects. (Unless of course, the challenge calls for that.)
That’s it. Hope to see lots of old friends and some new crafters in 2016.

Count me in for 2016. I completed all 25 challenges this year–YAY!!!!!!
Yeah!
I did 12, which is not bad considering all we had going on in our life this year. Hoping to do even more next year. Iron Craft is such a fun challenge – thanks for continuing to host it!
Almost half, not too bad!
I think I made it through the first 3. I’m game to try again!!
I think I managed 13. 14 if you count this week’s which was done but not posted yet. I’m pleased with that!
I must be close to the 20 of them. I always lack serious time at the end of the year. Either way, these challenges are lots of fun and if you’ll have me I’m up for 2016. Since this is the year I promise myself to be more active online, being part of Ironcraft is perfect. Thanks Kat for all this and I wish you all a very merry Christmas and a great 2016.
I know what you mean. That is why I cancelled challenge #26 this year. It’s just too busy! Have a great holiday!
Count me in, again! I hope that I’ll have a lot more craftingtime in 2016.
Oh my gosh, I think I made it through more than half? I kinda fizzled out at the end. I’m definitely game to try again for 2016. Can’t wait! These challenges always get my creative juices flowing.
I have to say, I really missed you this year Tawny. I know a new job got in the way for you.
Hi Crafty people….its been 4years since I last played the challenges…but am very happy to be joining you all this year…please count me in!! See you all through the challenges…happy crafting!!
Hello! It would be so fun to have you back this year!
I only did 1/3 of the projects last year with the craziness of the move, but I’m super excited for 2016 and to join back in! Can’t wait to see all the projects start going up in the flickr group here in a few hours!
I know, a new year is always exciting.
