try a lace shower curtain or regular curtain. I have used both at different times to cover my open closet. Also a spring tension rod works well.

Hi...I was in the same boat...I found curtains that have scenes on them...some look like you're looking out of a window, and larger ones that make you think you're looking out of sliding patio doors...the company that sells the ones I got is Walter Drake, but there are others...Naomi :thumbup: :thumbup:

I have curtains on my shelves. They are metal, so I put velcro on the back of the curtains and used rubber cement on the other part of the velcro and attached it to the metal. Let set then put on the curtains. Works fine. I tried other types of glue and the rubber cement seems to work the best.

A curtain is great hides the mess and protects the fabric

I tried curtains and didn't like them. I like being able to see all of my beautiful fabric.

Not me. I had sliding doors on the closet in my sewing room and I took them off.

I think a trip to your fav 2nd hand store -find a nice K or Q top sheet this would work its already hemmed and usually only $2 and if its flannel it will make for a nice design wall-I did this and it works real good

I don't know what your system is, but how about a pull up curtain. :)

I have a white 5-shelf metal cabinet in my sewing room with fabric and plastic tubs. When I redid my SW, I made curtains for my window, used a companion print for a curtain for the shelf cabinet (put velcro around top of it. It is open down the middle so I can get to it. Also put a skirt around a long table so I could hide stuff under there. It really looks cute.
