Moving the sideboxes higher up

I would like to move my sideboxes a tad bit higher. My website is QueenCharlotteSoaps.com. I am planning on adding a CSS menu underneath my logo and some buttons bellow this. I would like to move the sideboxes right below the CSS menu.

I hope that makes sense. Thank you in advance for any help.

Re: Moving the sideboxes higher up

I added the menu to my dummy site (thank you again for helping me set it up). I am still working on the dummy site, but have a look at QueenCharlotteSoaps.com/test.

Re: Moving the sideboxes higher up

You could try giving the top margin for that div a negative value...

FIND:

#navColumnOneWrapper, #navColumnTwoWrapper {
margin-left: 0.5em;
margin-right: 0.5em;
}

CHANGE TO:

#navColumnOneWrapper, #navColumnTwoWrapper {
margin-left: 0.5em;
margin-top: -100px;
margin-right: 0.5em;
}

(This is likely to affect the position of other divs...)

Re: Moving the sideboxes higher up

That works, thank you. Is there any way, though, to decrease that space between the CSS menu and the text below it? If you take a look at this page, the sidebox was moved up nicely, but the distance between the CSS menu and the breadcrumb trail is still significant.

Re: Moving the sideboxes higher up

Some more testing showed that is not a viable solution, unfortunately. That causes my shipping sidebox to move up past my CSS menu. Does anyone have a solution for this? Thank you.

Seperate and make 2 entries one for each and adjust as required

#navColumnOneWrapper

#navColumnTwoWrapper
