...Another monster, of course! You can see that I cut off one side of the matchbox and glued the drawer to the cover, so it would open like a book. But I thought it would be cuter to have another monster inside than to have book pages, so that's what I went with!
The one-eyed purple guy is hand-sewn from wool felt. I think they are a great pair!
After getting my partner's swap questionnaire, I decided to make her a different tiny monster, but this duo was perfect to send to my Harry-Potter-loving partner in a Blythe doll swap I was also participating in. So now everyone is happy--especially me, because I made another one of these for myself! When I put it on the shelf above my computer, I realized that I have the beginnings of an altered matchbox collection, since I've made a couple of other ones and I've received a few in swaps. I will photograph them all together and show you my collection next week.

They are so cute!
this is just fabulous! Love the tiny monster inside
p.s. did you know you've got word verification on?
Thanks, Sewphie and Wendt!
Sorry about the word verification, Wendy; I turned it off a couple of months ago, and when I did, I got hit with so much spam that I needed to turn it back on.
Adorable, I especially love the little inside surprise.
This was so exciting to receive in our swap! Even my husband kept opening it to see the monster inside.
