Jumbo Matchboxes with Gelli Arts® Artist Kirsten Varga

Hello! Kirsten here with a little twist on an everyday object: Matchboxes!

Usually when you think of matchboxes you think of a very small box. Well, let’s think BIG instead and make Jumbo Matchboxes! These versatile containers are perfect to hold handmade cards, small artworks, handmade books, lightweight treasures and more. I had a lot of fun with this one. The following video will give you all the details!
