YES, this one is a play on words. NO you will not be sending an empty, unadorned matchbox to your partner. You don't think I would make it THAT easy on you do ya??? ;oP

Take a small (32-count) matchbox then decorate and fill it in a bear theme. Can be ANY kind of bears! Black, grizzly, polar, koala, panda... even teddy! :)

Buttons, stickers, beads, brads, tiny ornaments, tiny animals, ribbon, jewelry, hair accessories, charms, appliques, etc. can go inside the box.

Newbies with informative profiles and "oldies" with ratings of 4.5 and up are welcome to join.

I have wondered for long time about matchboxes... My little matchbox (with count smth like 40) is 56 x 35 x 13 mm, is this what I would be filling? It seems so tiny...

Kotek, I found out that it should be what I wrote in my post (at least in most swaps it is that size).

Oh dear! I am so sorry I wasn't here to answer everyone's questions. :( I keep forgetting that sometimes people post them here, rather than via pm. I need to get better at this part of swap hosting! Thanks to those of you who helped each other out! I am very excited about this swap too! :)

Check out my tutorial on how to make a 250 ct. matchbox. http://www.flickr.com/photos/7835013@N08/2108875546/in/photostream/ Please leave comments if this is helpful or message me letting me know you liked my tutorial. I will work on upgrading a few of the pics to better quality, but I hope everyone can enjoy this. Save your tea boxes!

Mommie2angels, do you have a tutorial how to make a 32ct matchbox? I'd like to use my chewing gum box for something instead of throwing that out and throwing some matches out as well.
