i like matches.

i like the sound of striking a match.
they burn odors in the bathroom.
the design is simple.
they come in small shapes. (or giant ones).
i like the colorful tips.

& they look kinda cute in mass.

here's a something you can try at home:
1. buy a packet of small wooden matches
2. empty a glass container (the one above used to hold artichokes at one point)
3. dump every match you can find (of varying colors is fun too) into the little jar.
4. cut off the strip where you strike the match (what is this called??)
5. tape a couple of strips to the jar.

voila! you have something cute and homemade that functions and is creative. try placing it on top of your toilet next to a candle or perhaps on a window sill in the bathroom. &if you like it THAT much, you might just consider giving it a little snuggle.
