It can be no smaller than 5 inches by 7 inches.....Paint or cover it with pretty Valentine paper, make it as creatively beautiful as you can, remembering the idea of the title, baubles, buttons, ribbons, will be wonderful! Even add some trim around the sides of your box.

I would like to do this too if I still can get in! I still have the one my daughter made some 20 years ago in school! Also for some reason, I collect valentine cards so this will be fun.
