Description:

Altered matchboxes are so much fun to make - let's do it! This swap is no-stress and newbie friendly.

These altered matchboxes will be the small 32 ct size (they hold 32 matches). These are inexpensive and usually come in packs of 6 or ten at your local dollar store or Wal-Mart.

Decorate the box inside and out, and include some little surprise on the inside - send something that you'd like to receive. Make an effort to do something crafty - no sticker-slapping. I want this to be fun for everyone. There are a LOT of easy ideas on Pinterest. Check out your partner's profile for ideas on a theme or color.

Wrap it in tissue and or bubble wrap, package it in a small box or bubble wrap envelope or padded envelope and mail it off. They are light, so postage is pretty inexpensive, too.

Newbies are welcome with a nicely filled-out profile. 4.8 rating minimum - no 1s or 3s that haven't been made up or otherwise handled.

This is US-only. If it's popular, I'll make the next one International.

I'd love to see what you create, so if you feel like it (not required), put a link to a photo of your box (or the one you received) in the comments here.

Is this just one box or can be two or three together?

The minimum is one box, but feel free to get creative and use multiple boxes if you want! :)
