Ideas?

[http://users.livejournal.com/_stddance/]

Hi... I'm working on a valentines day gift for my boyfriend inspired partly by a post in the memories.

As of right now, we have a long distance relationship and will be having one for the next five months. So for valentine's day, I yanked an idea from the memories of someone who had sent hundreds of reasons why they loved their significant other in a box to them, and whenever he missed her, he would open one and read it, etc. I decided that I would do something like that, also including little gifts for valentine's day. (Soaps I made, assorted v-day candies, etc.)

Anyway, I'm a little stumped right now as far as decorating the box goes. Below are three photos of it. I've sealed the inside and the top of the box already, so I'm not looking to modify those. I'm not sure what to do about the white painted sides, or the under cover of the lid (which has no picture, but it's just a light tan undercover of a box. ha)

This is the top. You can't really see it too well in this photo, but when I put two parts of my hands together it fused a heart in the middle which I fell in love with instantly. heh.

This is the inside of it. The "LOVE" thing is from the Beatles, a band that we've bonded over quite a bit. It took four solid hours to do those stripes. Measuring, etc. Goddamn.

And this is what all four sides of the box look like. I'm BLANK as to what to do with this. The black on top is intentional, because it gives it sort of a comic effect over here. But what goes below that will determine whether or not it stays. I don't know! :F HEEEELP. Also, no idea for the undercover of the lid, as stated before. Yarg.
