Oh how awesome! Can't believe I only just saw this swap! I wish it had been smaller (32ct) matchbox as I just bought a load of empty ones for decorating - but I'm sure I can make one if I can't find a big one in the shops.

I chose the big box so that the inchies would fit with their possibly bulky embellishments

Oh, depth-wise you mean? I hadn't thought of that, I was thinking that 6 flat inchies would fit quite nicely into a standard box, but that's a good point.

Doesn't stop me wanting to make a cute little Union Jack one though :D Maybe I'll make one anyway, if I've got enough navy paper left over after covering the big one.
