    On quick point of clarification- are people using the tiny matchboxes or the larger sort? The link didn't have much to go by for a size comparison (as I'm not sure how big the coin in the Asian one was.) It's the little, wee sort right?

    Yes, little matchboxes.

    I hope so - I'm half done, and that's what I've used...

      Well... I got excited...
      Every moment of a life is a horrible tragedy, a slapstick comedy, dark nihilism, golden illumination, or nothing at all; depending on how we write the story we tell ourselves.

            Indian Chief 'Two Eagles' was asked by a white government official; "You have observed the white man for 90 years. You've seen his wars and his technological advances. You've seen his progress, and the damage he's done."

            The Chief nodded in agreement.

            The official continued; "Considering all these events, in your opinion, where did the white man go wrong?"

            The Chief stared at the government official for over a minute and then calmly replied.. "When white man find land, Indians running it, no taxes, no debt, plenty buffalo, plenty beaver, clean water. Women did all the work, Medicine Man free. Indian man spend all day hunting and fishing; all night having sex."

            Then the chief leaned back and smiled; "Only white man dumb enough to think he could improve system like that."

                Anyone else have ideas of where to go? I looked online at Micheal's craft store. No luck. Though I am going to go down in person and see. Then I though

                      Seriously? I get mine at my grocery store (Kaisers, Germany's biggest chain....so big they own A&P in the US) and buy a pack of like 20 of them for 2 Euro. I've had the same pack for like 4 years, so I'll just use one of the empties.

                      But really....you can't get matches in boxes there?

                        OMG. I am so dumb. I've been looking for hobby matchboxes. Never thought to just go to the market where they sell matches. Thanks for reminder.
