Description:

This swap is sender's choice as far as colors and contents. You will decorate a jar (glass or plastic) and fill the jar. The jar must contain one small decorated match box that has at least 3 mini ATCs in it. Fill the rest of the jar with whatever you want. This does not have to be profile specific, but you may want to make sure you don't send something on your partners list of dislikes/do not want. Have fun with this.

Now for the dreaded rules. No ones and no recent 3's. You must have completed at least 4 mail swaps to join. When it is time to assign partners if you have not signed in to swap-bot w/in a week I reserve the right to ban you.

Thanks and have fun!

NOTE: I will angel if needed, hopefully not. Just make sure to let me know. :)

I realize the jar has to be big enough to fit the matchbox, but other than that, any guidelines on the size of the jar? Thx!

Curlygirl - I used a honey jar - but whatever will fit the matchbox and have room to add some other things is fine. You don't need to use a large jar.

I love whimsey jars and mathcboxes but what is an atc. I want to sign up -I want to do this right. Thanks. smilingsassycat

So a "mini-atc" would that be a specific size, does it go inside the matchbox? or does it just have to be smaller then a standard?

What size is a mini ATC?

Sorry, for taking so long to respond! smilingsassycat an ATC is an Artist Trading Card. It is like a mini work of art. You can draw, paint or do a collage of sorts. If you check the FAQs at the bottom of the page you will find info on ATCs. undxdcraftymom and rainbowdaze the ATCs just have to fit in the matchbox. Not sure what size that is! They should be rectangular shape and just fit inside the box. I hope that answers your questions.

This sounds like such a good idea for a whimsy. I just did my first matchbox and atc swap, and have found a new craft! And I just adore whimsy jars, I enjoy the decorating that people do almost as much as the contents.
