Is there any where that explains how to do the match boxes? What does it mean by 32 ct? I am a newbie! I guess that was obvious?LOL

I'll go ahead and answer your question - the 32-count is the "penny match" size - available at places like walmart, etc, wrapped in cello-packs of 10, I think - they are about 1/2" tall, x maybe 1 1/2" long, x 1" wide.

if you go to flickr.com - or just copy and paste this link, you will see lots of examples of decorated matchboxes - -they really are so cute!

anyway, hope that helps - Mary

The items to fill the box are the themed mini-ATCs, right? Its just point 2 said "filled with whatever items you chose." so I wanted to check!

Haloquin: If I understand correctly the box can be filled with mini-ATC's if you wish but could also be filled with little trinkets or whatever. A regular sized ATC should also be sent.

I ready to sent mail out around 25 feb can I join with you?

Haloquin 01/29/2009 #

Thank you ShandaPanda. I must have misread the title and gotten myself confused. This is more of a challenge now :) gets started
