Description:
This is another matchbox swap. (I am an addict, what can I say?) :D Take a small (32 count size) matchbox and decorate it up all pretty and girly-looking. Fill the matchbox as full as you can with all sorts of things girls love. Some examples might include; ribbons, barettes, lace, stickers, perfume sample vials, charms, rings, necklaces, pins, cute buttons, brads, anything pink, etc. Be as neat and creative as possible and only send items that you would love to receive. You must have at least a 4 rating to join, or if you are new, have your profile filled out. Anyone joining without those requirements will be banned. This is an international swap.

whats a matchbox? Just any old box?

user5325 01/ 9/2007 #

This is a silly question - but where can I get a matchbox from?

To Akki & Kara:

It is a little cardboard box that matches come in. The kind I am talking about holds 32 matches. If you have a Walmart near you, you can get them there in a pack of 4 for 50 cents. They are up at the checkout lanes. :) I hope this helps!

Do the items have to be pink?? I'd prefer red. Please let me know. Thanks.

To Lotus Collector:

No, they don't have to be pink. I used that as an example as it is a girly color. Just as long as the box and contents have a girly/feminine theme it is fine. :)

Oooooh I just finished making the matchbox. I can't wait to see who my partner is so I can fill it up :o)

Should we email our partner once we have sent our item?

Mine's on it's way to Mississippi...it should take about a week or so I imagine. Hope my partner likes it :o)

user2289 01/20/2007 #

what would be some examples just so I have an idea of what to expect to buy?

user2289 01/20/2007 #

oops, sorry. I posted this in the wrong swap.

Connie- Your swap is on the way :)

Is it customary to post a commnet here when you recieve a swap? I havent heard from my partner and I know the delivery confirmation said it was delivered several days ago.

Helloitsme, either I write it into the comments or I send a message through swap-bot. I`d like to know, when my swaps reach their destination, so I assume others like to know when their swaps reach me, too.

Aw, Im so glad it got to you safely and that you liked it! (: I really put my heart and soul into every swap (as lame as that sounds!) so im glad you enjoyed it!

thefunkypainter, thanks for uploading a picture of the matchbox that I sent you in the gallery...I'm happy to know that it arrived safely and that you liked it. You have it marked down that someone else sent it to you, though. Just checking to see if you know that it was me who sent it ;o) Marianne

Salvia received my matchbox and likes it a lot! How cool!

Britta, I received your beautiful box in the mail today! It's one of the best swap packages that I've gotten yet and I totally LOVE everything inside...I even love the smell of the perfume and am wearing it right now (probably a little too much as I opened the bottle too quickly and spilled just a little on my jeans...LOL)...wonderful fragrance!!! I'm off to give you feedback right now...wish I could give you 10 hearts...because I would if I could! Thank you! ~Marianne
