Altered Match Box Cabinet

This has got to be one of the most functional and clever uses for the altered match box if ever I've seen one!


Not only is this deliciously shabby chic, it is also inexpensive to make using an old cigar box and some match boxes. You could even enlarge your boxes to suit your needs.


Something like this makes great craft storage for those smaller items like brads, eyelets, buttons and other embellishments.


With some decorative paper, vintage trims or fabric and a little imagination, you can customize a box that is sure to add shabby chic charm to any craft space without breaking the bank.


So find an old, sturdy box, get out your matchbox templates and get creating! I may have to try this myself! ;)
