Description:

I've just started doing matchboxes and this is the first matchbox swap I've hosted. For this swap you will alter/decorate one 32 count matchbox with an asian theme. You can either make it into a matchbox shrine (I haven't done shrines before so if someone else wants to comment with some suggestions for how to do this that would be nice) or you can fill it with goodies. If you choose the latter, not all of the goodies have to fit the theme, but at least some of them should. Some kawaii is allowed but since there are plenty of kawaii matchbox swaps this shouldn't be the main focus of this one.

Ideas of things to fill it with: stickers beads charms old postage stamps tiny origami small candies brads buttons pinback buttons tiny stuffie small jewelry Anything that will fit!

Other than the theme this is Senders' Choice, though if you want to be nice and check your partner's profile for likes and dislikes I'm sure they would appreciate it.

Nitty gritty: Ratings of 4.9 please. At least 5 completed mail swaps--not email only. Explanations for any 1s. USA/Canada only--if anyone wants to host an international version they are more than welcome to do so, just please post a link to it in the comments here.

Yeah apologies for the fairly strict requirements on this one, but I really don't want any flakers since I won't be able to angel it myself.

I'm watching for now, just to make sure I can get some asian-inspired items for it ;)

Feel free to host an international one! If I actually acquire any money in the near future I might even join it too. Just link to it in the comments here if you do
