[html] How to make a gap between two DIV within the same column

I have two paragraphs. The two paragraphs are located in the same column. Now my question is I need to make the two paragraphs in two separate boxes, down each other. In other words, gap between two boxes coming down each other.

HTML Code

    <div class="sidebar">

                <div class="box1">
                    <p> 
                    Text is here
                    </p>
                </div>

                <div class="box2">
                    <p> 
                    Text is here 
                    </p>
                </div>

     </div>

My CSS Code is

.sidebar {
    background: red;
    margin: 10px;
    padding: 0 7px 0 7px;
    width: 400px;
    border-radius: 10px;
}

.box1 {
    display: block;
    padding: 10px;
    margin-bottom: 30px;
    text-align: justify;
}

.box2 {
    display: block;
    padding: 10px;
    text-align: justify;
}

I'm assuming you want the two boxes in the sidebar to be next to each other horizontally, so something like this fiddle? That uses inline-block, or you could achieve the same thing by floating the boxes.

EDIT - I've amended the above fiddle to do what I think you want, though your question could really do with being clearer. Similar to @balexandre's answer, though I've used :nth-child(odd) instead. Both will work, or if support for older browsers is important you'll have to stick with another helper class.

you can use $nbsp; for a single space, if you like just using single allows you single space instead of using creating own class

    <div id="bulkOptionContainer" class="col-xs-4">
        <select class="form-control" name="" id="">
            <option value="">Select Options</option>
            <option value="">Published</option>
            <option value="">Draft</option>
            <option value="">Delete</option>
        </select>
    </div>

    <div class="col-xs-4">

        <input type="submit" name="submit" class="btn btn-success " value="Apply">
         &nbsp;
        <a class="btn btn-primary" href="add_posts.php">Add post</a>

    </div>


</form>

I know this was an old answer, but i would like to share my simple solution.

give style="margin-top:5px"

<div style="margin-top:5px">
  div 1
</div>
<div style="margin-top:5px">
  div2 elements
</div> 

You can make use of the first-child selector

<div class="sidebar">
    <div class="box">
        <p> 
            Text is here
         </p>
     </div>
    <div class="box">
        <p> 
            Text is here
         </p>
     </div>
</div>

and in CSS

.box {
    padding: 10px;
    text-align: justify;
    margin-top: 20px;
}
.box:first-child {
    margin-top: none;
}

Example: http://jsbin.com/ozarot/edit#javascript,html,live

#firstDropContainer{
float: left; 
width: 40%; 
margin-right: 1.5em; 

}

#secondDropContainer{
float: left; 
width: 40%;
margin-bottom: 1em;
}



<div id="mainDrop">
    <div id="firstDropContainer"></div>
    <div id="secondDropContainer"></div>
</div>

Note: Adjust the width of the divs based on your req.
