In this swap, please make one altered box for your one partner. Please make the box based on their profile. You could choose to make an ATC storage box, Postcard storage box, recipe box, jewelry box, etc. Make something nice that they can display and use. Please do not just add some stickers and ribbon on the box and call it done...it needs to be an altered art box of high quality. You can use any type of box, like a cigar box, other wood box, nice sturdy heavy cardboard box, lunch box, metal or tin box, etc......and then alter it. Box must be at least 4 inches on one side, by any length on the other. 4 inches is just the minimum...You can choose to make a larger box then 4 inches if you wish.

Here are some examples of the quality expected:

Those examples look awesome. I don't think I have enough materials here to make something awesome and I'll be moving in three months, so no use in getting anything new. I hope you'll do something like this again.

Does the box have to be rectangular? I got some interesting movie storage tins recently, but they are round (think old movie reels).

No, they do not have to be rectangular. Any shape would be fine. Someone could choose to alter a hat box, etc.

In fact, I added another example...#7 is a round box.
