Matchbooks

I love collecting new + vintage matchbooks along the way. Both fun and functional, they can be a great reminder of a special time and place every time you light a candle or start a fire. Colorful versions look great in a small bowl or dish:

Or piled high in a large glass bowl on a coffee table:

If you're stash isn't particularly attractive, nothing works better than a vintage matchbox holder:

Speaking of matchbooks, have you been enjoyed reading Matchbook--the online monthly lifestyle magazine? If you haven't yet, you must check it out. Every issue just keeps getting better and better.
