Drape off your creative space
Have a special area in your home where you go to relax, or a space you use to get some work done? It
could be your bed, a reading nook, even a repurposed closet.
Rather than breaking out a heavy—and sometimes visually jarring—room divider, take your space and cozy it up with some drapes! Drapes offer a softer alternative to creating a little privacy in your special area. In this example, the owner only needed a small area portioned off, and was able to achieve this by using just a bit of drapery.
