What to do with a shoe box?

I have this shoe box, and i need something to do with it. Any suggestions. The more complicated, the better.

What to do with a shoe box?
use it to make a diorama like we used to in school make a scale replica of the outside of your home including landscaping,driveway and your car If this is not complicated enough for you why not try returning it to the store for credit I am sure that will complicate things
Reply:use it for a cheap filing system container/or place your odds an ends in it
Reply:i think you could cover it with nice fabric and use it for storage like for magazines (xxx) so no one iwll see them ;)
Reply:You can line it with a nice satin or silk fabric using zig-zag (pinking shears) to cut the edges so it doesn't fray, or use "fray-check" which you can get at the craft or fabric store. Then attach with fabric glue, do the sides first so the bottom piece will cover the edges of the 4 sides. Then choose a fabric that will match your room decor, where you will use it later, and cover the exterior with the same technique. You may want to put a little batting, can purchase at fabric store, on the top just so it doesn't look so much like a shoe box, then use it to store the remotes for all the gadgets that come with stereo. tivo, dvd player, vcr player, tv....etc.... Or you can use it to store other gadgets in any other place you may need it, or you can now use it as a "prewrapped" gift box the next time you need one.
Reply:You should throw the shoe box in the garbage.
Reply:I usually cover them with fabric or deco page with a scene that relates to what I am going to put in it that way I know at a glance where something I have put away is. They are great for storing photos, old greeting cards, stationary, tax receipts, store receipts, warranty's, etc. you get the idea.....
