Crafty Thinkers!! Closet shelf "cover" or "curtain"?

Oky peeps, heres what I need help with.

April J. made a really cute how-to on DIY roman shades, these would be super cute and nice to use as a cover. It's a little more complex than you were thinking, but i love these to death and if you make some, post a version Happy <3 kat

How about flat fabric strips with a piece of wooden dowel at the bottom. The wooden dowel would keep it straight when closed and you could roll it up when you need to get stuff out. You could put ties or velcro at the top to keep it open. If you use a plain canvas fabric you paint it or add designs to match in with your room Happy

yeah, i did a similar thing too Happy i used two hanging hook thingies and stuck the to the top of my cabinet, with a piece of dowelling between them. then i measured a piece of material however long you want it, and hem the top. slide it onto the dowelling and hang it up between the two hooks. thats if you want a more non-adjustable screen Happy hoep my ramblings made sense!
