Black Matchbox!!! Spectrum Series MB Swap

This is the seventh in a series of twelve 32-count matchbox swaps, themed on the colors. The series will be as follows:

March was Red April was Orange May was Yellow June was Green July was Blue August was Purple September was Pink October is Black November is White December is Gold January is Silver February is Brown/beige tones

Very simple swaps...make one 32-count matchbox, decorated with the color of the month as the main color and filled with goodies featuring that color. You can use other colors on and in the matchbox, just so long as the color of the swap is the main one. You can use whatever medium you want. Ensure you use something sturdier than paper for the actual box. Pack it well. This is totally sender's choice. ONE BIG CHANGE HERE ON THE SERIES: IF you wish, you can put in one quality item, such as black handmade earrings or ring rather than a bunch of stickers, etc...sender's choice, though! Matchbox items are pretty small and we are already having to find them in a certain color, so you get what you get! Just make sure it is something you want to receive. No trash. I don't want to see anyone saying things such as "The picture wasn't very artistic" or "I don't use brads" in the swap ratings for these. If it looks like your partner spent time and did her/her best on and filled the box, and it is sent on time, it is at least a five. Let's not have any drama with this, please? October is Black!!! How fun for Halloween! For this one, black and orange is acceptable (because Halloween is coming) or you can go with just the black, or do a black and white!

You do not have to reference Halloween in your work, it is sender's choice if you want to do it or not. Those who are against Halloween should not join this particular swap, because you very well might get a Halloween box.
