Divide Your Page Protectors

Divide Your Page Protectors
You can buy page protectors (a.k.a. sheet protectors) that are already divided into sections (a.k.a. pockets), but they tend to be much more expensive, and the shapes/sizes of the sections may not suit your needs. Here are two easy ways to customize your page protectors yourself.

You will need:
  • Page protectors
  • Thick cardstock or thin cardboard
  • X-acto knife
  • Ruler
  • Sharpie
  • Woodburning pen

For a no-heat alternative method, see step 4.

Step 1Draw Your Sections

Draw Your Sections
Take a piece of thick cardstock or thin cardboard and cut it to fit snugly inside your page protector.

Using a ruler and a Sharpie, draw lines on your cardboard to indicate section boundaries. You can make as many sections as you want, but I recommend between 2 and 6 sections total.

For my project, I divided the cardboard in two, then divided the top section into two again.
