Photoshop question about making surfaces all one color (flattening the color if thats the correct phrase)?

Well basically I have a collage I did and it’s some boxes, and I have to paint that on large scale and the teacher said it would be easier if I scanned it and made all the surfaces a flat color to make it easier for painting.

By painting I mean to take a canvas and paint what I see on my image.
The image is as follows:

Desaturate is not what I need cause each side still has like shading or what you want to call it. I need each surface to be just one color not blue going lighter or darker but just blue. Like the color of your pc is one color but when light falls on it, the colro changes slightly, well I want just that one color.
What I can do is the lasso tool and just select each box side individually but that would take forever if you saw the previous image.
This is what I am trying to do:

Any faster, better method other than the lasso tool?

The dark colors lighter and you can auto trace the light colors that might level out the light colors more there is also filter called posterize think you want to create that is going to create that will take forever so dont shy away from things that will take forever think you want.
