How to make a memory box?

Question

I want to make a memory box but I'm not sure where to begin. I will be using it to keep pictures of the guy i love in and the letters that he writes me and poems and so on. He is currently in jail about to be sent to prison and i want a safe place to keep all of his letters and pictures and just whatever else reminds me of him so when i start to miss him i can take out my memory box and remember him until he can come home.

Check out some do-it-yourself craft websites.  They might have something you like.  You could just buy a really pretty little wooden box.  I've got one that's just very simple (I think it's made of cedar), and it's got pretty little details on it.

Really, though, they're your memories, so whatever you'd like to keep them in is fine.  You could keep them in a shoe box under the bed, there's nothing wrong with going cheap.
