1. Stand your Asian style room divider up right against the wall and use it as a focal point. This works great if you have a really long wall and want to break it up. Youll want to put something in front of it like a couple of big plants or a couple of chairs to use as a little conversation area.
2. Use it to divide a room. Well, of course! If you have a long room and want to make it into 2 separate areas you can plunk the room divider right in the middle to section it off. This is a great way to separate a dining and living room or make a little sitting room inside the bedroom.
3. Dress up a bare corner by folding the room divider kitty cornered. This really adds interest to the room and gives it a nice look instead of being all squared off. As an added bonus, you can use the space behind the room divider for storage.
4. If you are decorating a bedroom and dont have a nice headboard, why not use a room divider? Just use it flat instead of folded and slide it right behind the bed. This will and a really interesting look to the room and help make your bed a focal point.
