Fold-Up Divider
You'll need a flexible tape measure, foam board, a self-healing mat, a ruler, a craft knife, book cloth, a pencil, a straightedge, acid-free glue, a putty knife, and a bone folder.
1. Measure width, depth, and height of the drawer. Cut 5 pieces of foam board: 2 that are the size of the depth by the height, and 3 that are one-third of the width by the height.
2. Trim 1/2 inch from a short side of each piece. Lay pieces end to end in alternating lengths on book cloth, with 1/4 inch between each piece; mark edges with pencil. Cut cloth so it's 1 inch larger than foam board on all sides. Trim corners at a 45-degree angle.
3. Apply adhesive to book cloth with putty knife. Place foam board back on book cloth, according to markings. Wrap cloth over foam board. Cut a piece of cloth to cover the bare sides of the foam board; glue down.
4. Fold divider into shape with bone folder.
