This is a collection that has resulted entirely from my crafting supplies. I use poker chips quite often and always grab them at estate sales if the price is right (I prefer the plastic kind). I craft with the chips and then evidently I save the boxes.
I like how many different designs there are for such a simple thing. I think it is funny that most of the boxes say they are UNBREAKABLE...poker doesn't seem like a game where it gets really rough and tumble.
I am sure I threw boxes out as well. Love them all grouped together.
Pretty straight forward collection today. Graphic oriented for sure. If you have an idea for a collection challenge leave me a comment and finish the sentence "show me your collection of ____". A new collection each week.
P.S. For the poker record. I have never played a game of poker. I have never been to Las Vegas. I have never been to a casino. I am not much of a gambler.
I have lots of these boxes. Since the majority of them are red, white, and blue, they get displayed with my 4th of July decorations. I'm such a creative genius!

Great graphics on the boxes and on some of the chips too! I remember getting some things with chips on them from you and I thought it was a pretty clever idea :-)
P.S. I've never played poker before either.
Thanks for sharing!

I too have a lot of these and I put them in my Patriotic stuff. I love the old paper noiseless ones. My dad taught me to play poker when I was about five years old. He would have big poker games and I would ask to play. The men would say, "AH, let her sit in on a hand or two." Then when I won they would say, "Isn't it her bedtime YET?"

Awesome graphics on those boxes and they definitely add a fun flair to your crafting.

LOL! I never could get in to gambling, either. I have been to Vegas and we TRIED since it is the tradition, but just didn't hold any allure for us. I think I'm too big a cheap-o. I want something for my dollar - haha!
