Description:

This will be my first hosted swap, so I do hope lots of you will join in. I love making matchboxes, so I came up with this idea that I hope is a bit different and that you will enjoy. Lets cover a matchbox with newspaper. Just cover with a piece of newspaper, collage with neatly cut strips of wording or perhaps tear and decopage? It is entirely up to you so let your creative juices flow. Style and decorate if you wish with clippings, headlines, whatever. Then fill with paper related items such as paper clips, push pins, tape, split pins, brads, stickers etc. My picture shows the 2 sizes of matchbox that I use, but you may use any size you wish or make your own as long as you use sturdy materials. No need to wait for partners to be assigned before you begin, as this is quite straight forward. This will be a world wide swap; one partner, one matchbox. You must have no recent no sends to join. New swappers must have a decent sized profile filled out. I am really looking forward to seeing what you can create, have fun! :)
Any questions? please post below and I will get back to you asap
