Hosted by JoAnne at Vintage Dragonfly, was this "Oh you beautiful doll matchbox swap." Here is the altered matchbox that I did for Mercedes Scott.
The dolls head and arms serve as a drawer pull with sweet things inside. And pinned to her collar is a little vintage brooch. I enjoyed creating this matchbox so very much!
The back side
Inside the matchbox were placed these goodies, some pertaining to dolls or doll parts and other embellishments. Antique buttons, lace, a thimble and a golden spoon.
Oh you beautiful Doll matchbox swap was so fun for me to get in on and worked my creative senses into a frenzy. I have not recieved my matchbox yet. I am still waiting. I am excited to see what Sandy has created for me. The anticipation is killing me!
