Day of the Dead Matchbox Swap

Matchboxes were painted with acrylic paints and decorated with paint markers.  The skull masks on the lids were made using shrink plastic and attached with a mini metal brad.



Each matchbox contained a sugar skull made of felt and stitched with embroidery thread, mini loteria cards, and a varitey of glass, stone, brass or copper beads.
