Materials:
2 pair of bifold closet doors (24" x 80")
batting material
4 to5 yards of desired fabric
staple gun
1/4" staples
scissors
Steps:
- Before separating the doors, measure the placement of the hinges on each. These will need to be replaced at the same position once the doors are wrapped in fabric. Separate the doors and put all hardware in an empty margarine tub. Unroll the batting and place one door on it, front side down. Cut the batting, leaving three to four inches at each edge except the bottom of the door. Start at the center of the door and fold the batting over, stapling approximately every three to four inches until the entire piece is on. Don't put batting on the bottom of the door, as it will cause it to be unstable. Fold and tuck in the corners as if wrapping a present, then staple it to the back. Continue and repeat this process for the remaining three panels.
- Lay the fabric on the floor, pattern down. Now repeat the same process as used for the batting, except wrap the bottom to hide the raw edge.
- Find the hinges and reattach the panels. Place the screen wherever you need color or a little privacy.
Note: Add a little pizzazz to the screen by criss-crossing a coordinating ribbon on the panels for a place to slide in favorite photos and post cards.
