Description:
USA Only due to large size. 250 Count Matchbox (the big one, not the little one). This Swap will combine two of my favorite things, matchboxes and cleaning out my stash! Create a beautiful matchbox and fill it with nice items used in crafting. You may make it to your partners profile or surprise them with your creativity. Example of items to put in the box: Beads, buttons, brads, stickers (not the cheap teacher stickers), nice embellishments, ribbons, charms, you get the idea. Now the fun part...grab some of your stash that you know darn well you have too much of and will not use! Put together a nice package of items that YOU would want to receive. NOT JUNK!! Guidelines for joining us... ~ 4.8 or higher rating ~ Newbies MUST have a robust profile or I will boot you. ~ NO "no sends". If you have one that is international and is within the last month...pm me. Some people just arent' patient and I understand that. ~ Be generous ~ Have Fun!!

Oh no! You guys are killing me. All these great swaps keep popping up. Oh well off to do my Creative Matchbox. I know the folks at the dollar store are really wondering about me and the number of matches I buy ;)

Check out my tutorial on how to make a 250 ct. matchbox. http://www.flickr.com/photos/7835013@N08/2108875546/in/photostream/ Please leave comments if this is helpful or message me letting me know you liked my tutorial. I will work on upgrading a few of the pics to better quality, but I hope everyone can enjoy this. Save your tea boxes!

I agree with CraftyDez! So many good ones, and I just got started!! But I can't wait to get the packages rolling out to my mail box and then back in! :O)

I'm a newbie but have LOTS in my profile - but if whoever gets me has any questions just let me know!

Thanks! AF

ME TOO! Just moved to a small town and they have different ways of doing things. Example they don't pick up or deliver mail to your house if you live out of the city limits,(guess where I live). They are open 8:30 to 4:30 on weekdays(I got there at 4:25 thinking they were open until 5:30, doors locked) but when you go by before work on Sat. they don't open until 9:00 and the close at noon. Monday no go either, closed for MLK day. Hey partner, your package left this morning, finally! Boy, I feel much better now!
