Countdown to Christmas - Box 21


Here's today matchbox for the Countdown to Christmas swap.

This was made by Angela of

I think this one is simply beautiful and full of vintage-y goodness!


I love all the detail Angela has put into it, I think this has to be another of my (many!!) favourites!

Inside the gift was some handmade flowers, two poinsettias and two little sprigs of what look to me like mistletoe, or snow berries - made with wire and glass beads, they're so effective!



Many thanks Angela, I love it!

I leave you with a photo taken yesterday of my niece and nephew - it was snow-time in the garden!


They'll be back again today - so I know it's going to be another exhausting day - bring it on!!

Thanks for looking and I hope you'll come back tomorrow to see matchbox number 22.

Wow Sherry this box is absolutely brilliant. Such fine detailing and the flowers inside are superb. My No.7 box came from Angela too.

Those match boxes are just the cutest! I would have loved to have done something like that, but alas, not time to do much of anything this year for awhile. Sigh!
