Lobster and swan is one of my most favourite blogs, and i am always inspired by what Jeska shares and creates. The photos above are from her instagram.
Throughout the month of February, Jeska is decorating vintage matchboxes in different themes, and then popping them onto the shelves of her Etsy shop with any money raised going to Oxfam.
Anyone can join in and decorate their own boxes and add them to the flickr group.
There is a daily schedule to inspire everyone but the themes are loose and can be interpreted any way you choose. Today's is the Birthday one, as it's Jeska's birthday....Happy Birthday sweetie, hope you like the little gifts xxx
Please join Jeska over at Lobster and Swan to say hi, join in and make just 1 matchbox, or the whole 29 !
you can see more specific details in this blog post
I am hoping to decorate some and if i can, i will put them in a post to share with you here,
love
I just blogged about Lobster & Swan... LOVE everything she creates!
Have a happy one, Kat!
Hugs,
Zuzu
