    Hi....
    Here are pictures of the matchbox music ornaments I just finished up for my Mistletoe Marketplace. These would be cute with any kind of graphic or maybe even your kids or grandkid's pictures in the center.
    They were very easy to make....I first painted the front and back of the matchbox with a couple of coats of white acrylic craft paint.....to cover up the label on the matchbox. They just cut out the picture you want and Mod Podge it onto the front and back of the box. Next I used some white fabric paint around the edges to give it some texture and then some clear shimmering crystal fabric paint to give it some glisten...they a little bit of silver or gold fabric paint for sparkle. Add some leaves and holly berries, attach a hanger and you are done!
    hugs,
