    These are so fun and delightful...you've inspired me to create Matchbox Marilyn Monroe, Elvis Presley, and Statue of David Magnet Dolls for my refrigerator! I didn't find them - does Altered Pages carry those tiny magnets?... or are they from a big box store? (I like to buy from my "locally" owned internet shops when I can). Thanks for the clever idea!

    I love altering matchboxes! I had never thought to decorate them this way. I am going to have to "steal" your idea and create some for myself. Wonderfully done!

    These are adorable, Corinne, and I love the matchbox idea. If you could close it, you could keep small trinkets that match the doll. Hmmmm .....

 Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages.   I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent!   Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar.   Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them.    Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA!     You have made your own solvent for literally pennies.    You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a  HUGE jar on the window sill!       Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.
