What a great way to use match boxes, especially since you can pick them up for a song at the dollar store. Unfortunately you are right about the pile of matches you are left with because I made an advent calendar from them a couple years ago and haven't made a dent in the pile. I hope you don't mind me tucking this idea away for next year.

I have finally gotten some lights on my (most perfect ever) tree, and just a few ornaments (the fewer I put on the fewer I take off). These are some of the few. Because they are SO tiny, I've surrounded them with some of my glass bird ornaments. I'm so happy you've enjoyed these! I always enjoy your comments, and you have started my day off with a smile!

Just to clarify, these are made with real match boxes ( I have updated my text to hopefully clarify this), so they are a bit smaller, I think than the die produces. Making them with the die would be the ticket, but I don't own that die, either!
