Take the elastic bead string and make a faux rubberband connecting the two brads together. The string should be taut enough that the lid stays shut, but not overly stretched out that it would be impossible to open the lid.

Attach the two magnet square on the side of the backside, leaving room for the faux rubberband in between.

Take another small piece of balsawood and reinforce the center lip of the cigarette box lid. Cut into the inner lip to accomodate the reinforcement piece. Punch the last brad into that spot.
Secure with a bead of hot glue. Attach a 2' long fishing string to the base of the brad. Make a few knots and secure under the brad head.

Secure the rubber band ends underneath the first and second brads.
