While I was playing with the accidental box, my daughter decided she wanted one for her vanity. With only slight differences, this is what i came up with. But to give the teenager something a little gimmidky, I used magnets to hold the lid on. -- There are many tempting parking places on the road to success

cool idea, using the magnets. did you use the “rare earth” neo-dymium magnets? i love those for their strength, pretty amazing power in such small packages.
nice box too. unique lid profile.

Really a nice box. The magnets were a great idea. Are those finish nails that the magnets stick to?
