Description:

Have you ever wanted to try making a matchbox but a public swap kinda scares you? Are you a matchbox pro? This is open to anyone in the group up for making a matchbox, whether you're the cream of the crop at them or a complete noob that's never made them before.

Let's make them 32 ct (please comment if you're interested in doing a 250 ct, if there's enough interest I'll start one), sender's choice. Here is Rachel's Matchbox Template which is super helpful if you've never done this before.

Can we use pre-made matchboxes (with matches in them), or is this meant to be one where you use the template?

Also, I assume this is a stuffed matchbox, not a shrine?

Thanks!

Go ahead and use an actual matchbox. As long as you decorate the outside (which I assume you were going to do anyway hehe) it's all good by me.

And yes, stuffed not shrine. Thank you for asking :-)

I am commenting that I would be interested in doing a 250 ct. matchbox sometime down the line. :-)

I am also interested in doing a 250 ct. matchbox!

Preference as to whether the 250 should be a filler or shrine matchbox? I could maybe post one up for Valentines or St Patrick's day if you want a theme or it can be free theme again. I'm up for trying anything!

I have never done a shrine and don't know what that would consist of exactly. I like finding things to fill matchboxes up with, so I am thinking filled.

I would be willing to try a shrine if the swap lets me know what it is all about. :-)
