Craft: Matchbox Book

This was my first matchbox book. My partner really liked Disney, so that’s the theme I went with when making it. The drawers open up to reveal Disney stickers. I recolored the photo slightly to work with the background paper color scheme.

How do you make a double matchbox book? It’s pretty simple. Cut out paper that’s a little more than twice as long as two matchbooks, lay the matchboxes out and paste the paper so it looks like a book. Then decorate. I followed this tutorial when making mine.
