Description:

October is fast approaching and I want to start celebrating Halloween a little early this year by hosting a Halloween Matchbox Swap!

the simple guidelines:

For this easy, fun times, international matchbox swap we will each have just one partner. You will make your partner one Halloween-themed matchbox - the small 32-count size. Thirty-two-count matchboxes are approximately 1.5 x 2 x .5 inches. You can download my free PDF template for making matchboxes from scratch here, but many swappers decorate real, empty matchboxes.

Halloween-theme can be anything from ghosts and goblins to fall leaves to witches and monsters... really anything that reminds you of Halloween is fair game!

You also need to fill your matchbox with similarly themed goodies. I like filling my boxes with stickers, ribbon, brads, buttons, beads, and other little embellishments. Anything goes, but make sure you send something you would love to receive.

You aren't required to send any extras for this swap, but remember to include your name, your swap-bot username, and your email address in your package.

rating requirements:

This group swap is international. Everyone must have over a 4.9 rating to participate with very, very few no sends - like zero. All of our group participants meet these requirements, so there should not be anyone questionable. However, it is a harsh world out there and I want to keep my matchbox swappers safe! I will remove participants who look fishy!

let's swap:

Remember that you can receive any type of Halloween goodies in this sender's choice swap. If you don't enjoy Halloweem, this probably isn't the swap for you. Let's have fun!

xoxo

I just assigned partners. Every participant is a stellar swapper - perfect 5s all around! This should be a great swap! I am going to work on my matchbox today!

I have also created a public version of this swap and would love for you to join: QUICK Happy Halloween Matchbox Swap
