decoupage
this is fantastic and so absorbing. idea is to look for images anywhere, even on wrapping paper and cover areas in cut design and varnish over.
I have seen amazing decoupage on old furniture, doors and little boxes. I did a lovely little box i bought for next to nothing and covered it with overlapping flowers and butterflies got from wrapping paper and anywhere i saw interesting stuff.
also depends if you want mod or oldstyle, even colour photocopies of things in books can be used when cut out and pasted down.
Wallpapering a box like this is an idea, so many different types out there, again depends where it is going, strippy, flowery, etc.
or simply a lick of paint, maybe each side a different contrasting colour, pastel for adults, garish or girly for the children.
