craftgrrl | More pocket Shrine questions...

I'm currently making two pocket shrines for Father's Day (for my husband) and I'm curious about a couple more things.

I've basically been using 9001 craft glue and Elmer's for the entire project, but now that I've got some beads glued down (and hardened) to the inside lid of the shrine of my father-in-law, I can't close it. Is it necessary for a shrine to close? Or is there a way I can move the beads around to get it to close?

I tried to remoisten the glue and pulled a couple of the beads out, but it started making nasty marks on the area it was glued to, so I stopped. I can almost fully close it but not quite. I'm very sad about it.

Also, What do you do to the backs of your shrines? Do you always decorate them or sometimes leave them blank? The one I'm doing of my husband and our daughter has turned into a rather simple shrine (which is more like a glorified photo frame, really) and I don't have a clue what to do for the back of it. So far, it's just spray painted silver to cover up the altoids nutritional information and price scan bar... is that good enough or should I do more?

I know I don't have pics so it's hard to tell, but my batteries are dead.
I swear, I'll put up pics once they're both done.

thanks again for any help you can give.

(and I'm going to join the pocket shrine comm and X-post this question there, so sorry if you see this in duplicate)
