Decorating With Room Dividers
Lee Dobbins
Room dividers can be both decorative and practical. They can
serve to break one large room up into cozy sections, hide a
cluttered area, or simply sit against the wall and add to the
décor. Not only are they a great decoration, but you can use
the empty space behind them as extra storage!
A room divider is an interesting way to create 2 semi private
areas within 1 room. If you are using it in a bedroom, you can
section off one corner for a private dressing room. Or use your
room divider to add a separation to a large living room and
dining room combo. You can section off the dining area to
create an intimate ambiance One great thing about a room
divider is if you don’t want to have the small cozy rooms
anymore – just fold it up and put it away!
Even in a smaller room, a room divider has many decorative
uses. Placing the divider in the corner, softens the edge of
the room and adds interest. If you have other themed accent
pieces, try draping them over the divider. If you are tight on
space, you can set the divider flush against the wall and even
put some furniture like a chair or desk in front of it. But if
you have plenty of room, you can set it out from the wall a bit
and use the empty space behind it for extra storage.
There are different kinds of dividers too. The classical
folding screen divider is nice because it is easily moved
around and can be folded to fit in to most any area. The single
screen panel, can be good in a contemporary setting. If you are
into the 1960’s you can even put up a beaded curtain panel.
Room dividers come in practical form as well and you can buy
ones with shelves or cubbies as well as ones that have places
for photos.
When you pick out your room divider room divider, you need to
make sure it matches your décor. Pick a divider that either
goes with the room them (i.e beach theme, safari theme etc…) or
matches the style of the room. You wouldn’t want a modern
divider in an antique style room so be aware of the style you
already have and go with that.
