As requested here a video on how I made some organisation boxes for both, kitchen and bathroom drawers. it’s super easy, you only need a double sided sheet of scrapbooking paper, hotglue, bonefolder, ruler, staple and a pen

here’s the math again (again, super easy!!) : paper – box = x and then, x / 2 = inches to measure from the side of the paper.
it sounds much harder now, try it and it’s fun ….and easy
if the drawer is 10″ wide and you want to have two boxes you get this: 12″ (paper) minus 5″ (box) = 7″
now divide your result like so: 7″ / 2 = 3.5″
now this is your result for the walls!

You’ve organized your materials and chosen your book. Now it’s time to get down to brass tacks. . . and tapes, stamps, stickers, cardstocks, markers…

To complete this How-To you will need:

Your materials, organized into layouts
Your scrapbook or album of choice
Archival-quality background paper or cardstock
Sharp scissors or a small precision knife
Archival-quality page protectors
Archival-quality tape or adhesive
And archival-quality pens or markers
Photo mats
Decorative embellishments
Scrap paper

Step 1: Shop for safe materials

You’ve organized your material into layouts; now it’s time to construct. The key is using adhesives, papers, and decorative elements that won’t damage what you’re trying to preserve. Shop for ones labeled acid-free, archival quality, photo-safe, and lignin-free.

Step 2: Trim background paper

Trim your background paper to the appropriate size for your layout.

Tip: A small precision knife will give you a cleaner, straighter line than scissors.

Step 3: Check layout

Make sure your layout will fit on your page or inside your page protector—if not, make the necessary adjustments to your layout.

Step 4: Crop photos

Crop photos if necessary.

Step 5: Mat photos

Mat the photos if you choose.

Step 6: Arrange elements

Arrange your elements on the background paper, shifting them around until they fit and are visually appealing.

Step 7: Begin mounting

Begin mounting the materials on the background paper in the arrangement you’ve just created, starting with the bottommost elements. If you have a custom-cut background for your picture, mount it first.

Step 8: Mount picture

Mount the picture next, then any printed captions, quotes, or titles.

Step 9: Add decorations

If you have decorative embellishments you plan to use on top or around the picture, mount them last.

Tip: Never use rubber cement, glue sticks, or “school” glues. Even if they’re labeled acid-free, they don’t work as well or last as long as other adhesives.

Step 10: Let layout set

Give your finished layout time to set.

Step 11: Add captions or titles

Add any handwritten captions or titles.

Tip: Practice writing on scrap paper first to ensure that the words will fit in the allotted space neatly and legibly.

Step 12: Check your page

Check your page for any loose elements before sliding it into the page protector or mounting it in the book. Congratulations—you’re on your way!
