Make Fancy Matchboxes

Lindsey McCord
by Lindsey McCord
Ditch the Bic and make some of these gorgeous matchboxes you can proudly display on your coffee table or vanity. With an economy pack of matches from the dollar store and a sheet of balsa wood from your local craft store you can finish a batch of these pretties for housewarming gifts for under $5! Make several matchboxes at a time to gift along with your favorite scented candles for the holidays.
Create fun seasonal prints, or decoupage scraps of fabric or paper on the top and bottom of your matchboxes.
Join two dollar store matchboxes together by sandwiching them in-between to pieces of balsa wood.

    I used to collect pretty match cases! I stopped for a while, looks like I need to DIY some!
