Folding Screen

I've been wanting a folding screen for a while. Well, I came across a stenciled folding screen in the newest Martha Stewart magazine. The screen was attractive and chic. Unfortunately, it wouldn't be cost effective. So, I made my own stencil, bought some paint, bought a folding closet door- I had the material. However, the outcome was less than martha stewart worthy.
My project was much more cost effective. The stencil listing in the instruction was $50 +. My stencil was the cost of a pack of plastic ($3.00). I didn't use the gold wallpaper she suggested nor the more expensive paints. Maybe a poor man's martha. Maybe I'm just useless. Anyways, I can now sit at my desk and ignore the allure of my bed. Mission accomplished!
