Description:

This swap will be for a Paris themed altered cigar box.

You may take an average size cigar box in either cardboard or wood, and alter it for your partner. The top of the box should include something related to Paris. The outside edges of the box should also be altered in some way beyond basic paint or ink, this could be paper, glitter, trims, embellishments etc. The bottom may be left alone or simply painted/inked. The inside lid and bottom should also have some elevated altering, above a basic paint or inking, but the inside edges (sides) may be basic.

When you are finished with your box, please include one small gift for your partner in the box. It does not have to be profile specific or costly. It could be a single hanky, a little tag with a yard or two of vintage lace, some handstamped tags, or really any little thing to show a little kindness for your partner and surprise her.

Please pack your box carefully, as I had one arrive once flat as a pancake!

This will be sender's choice, but please make something you would be thrilled to receive. I will be giving extra time for this swap, as it is more labor intensive.

As usual I will angel any of my swaps that are flaked on. Flakers will be publicly flogged and humiliated!
