Sneak Peek

Here is a little sneak peek of the fabric folding screen I have been working on.




Did you know that if you want your folding screen to fold in different directions, you have to buy specialty hinges?  You probably did, but I didn't.  As I was attaching the regular hinges, I kept thinking to myself, "I don't know how this is going to work".  I put them on anyway and guess what?  It didn't work. So I went to my good friend google, and find out right away that you need to buy "folding screen hinges". Duh!  Of course you cannot find them at the regular home improvement stores, so I had to order them.  Now I am waiting, very impatiently, to finish my project.

  5. If the screen has 3 panels you do double fabric at the front of 2 so thefabric is behind where the hinges go then you do the same on the other side on the opposite panels so its like a concetena then there is no gap between the panels
    Love the fabric
