match boxes as a gift for my mom
hello! i’m a graphic design student and recently made these match boxes for a class (pictured above). i think they turned out pretty nice and they are completely functional. i bought a lot of 50 pretty cheap boxes off of amazon and need to use the rest of them. i was thinking of making a collection of match boxes for my mom. she buys probably a hundred candles per year so i think it would be super fitting. she uses a lighter, but i think even if she doesn’t really use the matches it would still be cute to display them with her candles.
any ideas on what to make the theme? i cant really do anything relating to old pictures of the family or my siblings young because i dont live at home where we keep the collection. she likes to garden, but is more into the aesthetic of her yard than the actual flowers. she has a chihuahua that she loves named skippy. she’s an interior designer. we live in michigan and she grew up here. she loves the colors green, black, and white. she’s not super into a lot of media, such as music, books, or movies, but does consume a lot of true crime tv shows.
if you have any ideas i would love to hear them! thank you!
