Default Lunch boxes for auction....need advice

I need advice on the lunch boxes I made for an auction for a non profit I volunteer for. I am making a couple of these & filling them with cards. I usually put the word 'cards' on the front of them, but I'm thinking since these are probably non stampers I should put something else on the front so they can use the boxes after the cards are gone. Any ideas?
Also I was wondering how many cards I should put in each of them for an auction?
Here is a past box I did. This one has the word on it. The two I have now are pink & brown flowers/stripes & like this without the word.

I have used a die cut flower on the front of some of mine.

I get wooden flowers at Micheal's to put on some of mine with some ribbon too. I think putting 4-5 cards would be good. Good luck!

I heard somewhere here on SCS that at craft fairs most people wanted to buy the boxes for things other than storing cards. I think you should just add a flower or pretty ribbons so they could be used for a lot of different things.

I've donated two different boxes to auctions. I don't label them with any words -- just patterned papers. I've put 25 cards in one and 40 in the other.

the one you made is just beautiful.
