While it doesn't come with specific decorating instructions, general crafting advice applies. It's recommended to protect the metal clasp with tape and keep the lid open while painting to dry.
Troubleshooting
Lid is sticking shut after painting.
Gently try to pry the lid open. If paint is still wet, allow more drying time with the lid propped open. If paint has dried, you may need to carefully score the paint line with a craft knife.
Metal clasp is difficult to open or close.
Ensure no paint or debris is obstructing the clasp mechanism. If necessary, apply a tiny amount of lubricant like graphite or a dry lubricant spray to the hinge and clasp parts.
Wood surface is rough or splintering.
Lightly sand the surface with fine-grit sandpaper (220 grit or higher) before decorating. Wipe away dust with a dry cloth.
