If you haven't already, paint the pink lines on all sides of the cube. You are essentially dividing each face with a pink painted line. This is going to take 3 coats as well. Luckily acrylic dries fast, usually in under 10 minutes.

Now, you have two options. Paint pink hearts on the now-white wooden disks and then glue them to the cube, or glue, then paint. Whichever you prefer.

Now you should have bright pink lines painted on all faces of the cube (I didn't paint the bottom).

Next, glue your white wooden heart disks in the center of each face. We're almost done!

The last pieces go between the corners. Cut a small rectangle out of cardboard and fold it over one of the edges. Next, cut the edges down until it is even with the pointy corners on the white companion cube corners (see image).

Next, cut a small curve out of the ends of the cardboard to that it completes the circle. Do this on both ends. Trace and cut out 12 of them.

Spray paint them white (3 coats, remember) and then glue them over the edges. Be careful on the bottom back edge. Do not glue your box shut!
You're finished!

Just put in your favorite brand of tissue and you're good to go.

It is important to note that I had to cut about a 1/4 inch off the top of the tissue box in order to get it to fit inside the companion cube.
