...love letters and Valentine's Day cards interspersed with the multitude of prom photos and that gorgeous dried corsage from Homecoming. Of course, try to color-coordinate everything on your wall (remember the failure of a prom date who forgot to match his tux with your full length fuchsia gown?).
