Cross-Stitched Matchboxes

Craft and Creativity Cross-Stitched Matchboxes

Aren’t the cross-stitch decorated matchboxes cute?

    I can imagine different occasions where you can give them away filled with money or a little something:

  • with a heart for Valentine’s Day,
  • with a little flower for Easter,
  • with numbers as Advent calendar box in Advent,
  • with a Christmas tree at Christmas or
  • with an initial as gift box for special people,
  • with a little car for a passed exam for a driver’s licence,
  • with a baby carriage for the birth of a child,
  • and much more :)

Embroidered Paper Bookmark

You can always read, as well on the beach with a cold drink as well at a comfy fireplace with a hot tea. But sometimes you must stop reading (e.g. because of the drinking ;-)) and then such an embroidered paper bookmark comes in handy :)

I presented many ideas on book recycling before, to embellish a book page with cross stitch belongs absolutely into this category :)
