Here are some instructions on how to make acrylic boxes:
1. Attach 2 pieces of acrylic of 1-foot wide by 1-foot long to each other at 90 degrees angle so that the edges that meet are flush against each other... If the box will not be used as an aquarium or terrarium you can use acrylic cement. Be careful, the cement that you use can be harmful to pets or flowers, so if you will use the acrylic box as a terrarium or maybe an aquarium, use safe silicone adhesive in that purpose. Glue the two pieces together using clips and allow time to dry. Then repeat this process with two other square pieces.

2. To create a square frame, attach the two corners to each other. Wait for the adhesive to dry.
