Matches

When did matches change from being that lovely cerise colour to this unattractive shade?  We don't usually use matches nowadays, and these are kept for emergency (I don't know what emergency but that's the theory). As often happens for TinyTuesday I couldn't make my mind again as to what to blip, but when I found these at the back of the drawer that settled it for me  -  I'd been inspired. Haha.

Thank you to Lizellen for hosting once again..
