Match can "Match can"

Have you ever seen a "match can" instead of a matchbox?

As the name suggests, it's a can that contains matches, which was often used during the Meiji to Showa periods because it is more resistant to moisture than a box. Some of you might have seen it at your grandfather's house or might have one because you love camping＊

Reflecting the era it was used, the match cans currently sold also have many retro designs that are fashionable♡

Match cans as place cards＊

There is a bride who used this match can as a "place card," and I thought it was a wonderful idea, so I would like to introduce it♡

This is a match can place card with a message "READY TO PARTY?" and the guest's name written on craft paper＊

It's stylish that the label colors differ for each guest, right?♡

DIY custom labels for match cans♡

The bride who made the match can place cards, natsumi (@n___tmz0502), created the design on Canva (original design♡), printed label stickers on craft paper, and applied them to the match cans＊

A highlight was including the lantern from her camping hobby on the label, and making sure the guest's name is visible not only in the center but also at both ends♡

The match cans used were those available for purchase on Rakuten, and they did not have labels.

They cost 3,300 yen for 10 cans, making each one 330 yen. Match cans can be kept as disaster prevention items, so they are practical as well...!♡
