I like to sand the sides to make sure that they are even, and I think it sticks better, but you don't have to do that.

spread glue on the side of the cardboard and put them all together (I love this part). They should fit, but if they don't you can sand and cut the sides until they do.

hold it for a bit and let the glue dry.

After it dries for a while, you can now sand down the sides even more to make it even more smooth and make the sides flush with each other, but make sure you do this when the glue is absolutely dry.

Now you have a sturdy box! at this point you can just leave it the way it is, but if you want to make it prettyer go on and continue to the optional steps.
