School Artwork

So this is from a conversation Kim and I had a bit ago but I recently pulled down the box I was storing Marisa's pre-school artwork in and thought this was a good opportunity for a visual (see photo 1). What I have done for each preschool year is to create a book highlighting some of her masterpieces. I usually only put about 10 items in and laminate them together making about 5 pages. I then punch holes in the laminated pages and tie them with ribbon or fibers (see photo 2 & 3). When she was in her 3rd year of preschool I started having her hold up her masterpieces in front of the fridge with more of her artwork displayed behind her. Then I created a layout as part of her school album with this picture (see photo 4). The only problem with this whole process so far is the box I am storing the artbooks and artwork in. It's just a regular cardboard box with stickers Marisa put all over it. It's so unattractive. I need to find something cuter and more practical but the size of the box is the issue - has to be big enough to handle those over sized art pieces that I kept along with the artbooks. Any ideas? Also, my big confession - I obviously have not kept every single item from pre-school nor am I keeping each from Kindergarten. I just had to confess that.
