I have been making some altered matchboxes recently and have really enjoyed it. So I am hoping you will enjoy it too! For this swap you will decorate a matchbox in a woodland theme, and fill it full of woodland theme items. You can either decorate a readymade matchbox, or you can make and decorate your own from scratch. This is a filled matchbox, not a shrine, which means that the outside should be decorated, and the inside can be simply decorated (painted, or I sometimes cover the inner with a themed paper) but should be completely filled with themed items that can be removed and used for other projects. Obviously these must be small items, you could fill it with stickers, buttons, charms, even small jewellery items, beads, etc. It should not just be filled full of stickers, there must be a variety, and should be woodland themed or woodland colours (toadstools, pine cones, squirrels, hedgehogs, browns, greens, russet etc) Please Note;- Beginners to matchbox swaps are very welcome (I am still new to them myself) This is a chance to try it out with other people who are not experienced as well, but of course, experienced crafters are also very welcome. If this proves to be popular then we could do a series of matchboxes. Any questions/comments etc. please comment below or PM me. |
