Step 1
first make that glue: my mixture is flour, water, tablespoon of wood glue and a teaspoon of Elmer's glue the mixture should be not to thick or to thin but somewhere in-between . this mixture I used is good for paper mache if u can afford if u don't want to buy wallpaper glue

Step 2
next cut the cardboard into squares or any shape u like. I used 8 square

Step 3
next tear strips of paper( don't cut the strips because the edges will not be flat on the surface)

Step 4
dip the paper strips in the glue solutions, make sure get the excess glue off.

Step 5
now put about 3 to 4 layers of glue paper on each piece squared cardboard. then let them dry.

Step 7
now that all the pieces are smooth punch holes in the corners of the squares
