Cleaning up the corporate schlock

Here is the way I dealt with a beautiful box, covered with corporate gunk (it used to be engraved with "Bank of America" on the front..




Instructions:
1. Work WAY TOO HARD at a corporate job and get a rosewood photobox emblazoned with the corporate logo (or buy one.. I really suggest buying one!)
2. Buy a "labeler" from your local discount store and about 5 rolls of black label strips
3. Determine which lyrics you would like to use
4. Sit in front of the TV while punching out the lyrics into the label strips. I used a "..." between lines in the lyrics. I also made a label strip full of "......................." and used it to end rows on the box.
5. Peel the paper off the back of the label strips and stick, in lyrical order, on the box. You can cut the strips at the end of the row, even if you're in the middle of a line of the song. Just start the next row down with the remainder of the line.
6. Make label strips for the top in the same manner. (I would suggest skipping this.. after I did it I didn't like it much!)
Viola!
