For my second matchbox dresser I decided to use an Asian theme and used a combination of Chinese  and Japanese images  and items.  Instead of a mirror I used an image of a Japanese woman and on the dresser top I had some Asian coins, Mahjoh cards, and an origami Japonica with leaves.  On the back of the dresser I used the image from a small gift bag that I picked up in Chinatown. This swap-bot swap we had only two partners and my second partner also flaked and the hostess as I mentioned before did not angel.
