- In this episode, I try to install a budget-friendly room divider that will act as a video conferencing background during WFH. It will also serve as a physical divider to separate my office from my sleeping area.

A couple of suggestions for hemming in the comments:
...Have a friend that can sew
...Hem tape such as stitch witchery
Hi Duy! Enjoyed your video! For hem: use iron-on tape! Works great and super easy!
This is exactly what I was looking for I'm trying to make a smaller personal office/private room in my room on a budget and this is just genius. Thank you
I’m doing exactly the same thing 😊
Hope your project came out great!
@@lukemckean6155 I just something here on YT called Umbra tension rods I'm going to try that because it doesn't need any tools.
THANK YOU,..I SCROLLED THROUGH COUNTLESS DIY ROOM DIVIDER VIDEOS I ALMOST GAVE UP BECAUSE NOTHING I SEEN TICKLED MY FANCY AND I SEEN YOURS GAVE IT A SHOT AND BOOM IT WAS EXACTLY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR,... THANK YOU 🙌💫
Great work. Well done. The curtain also helps absorb the sound in the room. Your voice is clearer than before the curtain.
This seller ships this item very carefully to ensure that your room divider ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxWv_wTHyTRVm0QkcOw1Rz2-5g_gDoRTkU is not damaged in transit. They even place stickers saying glass, handle with care. I originally bought a 4 panel room divider, but after receiving it I knew I needed larger for the area I was trying to hide. I wanted a 6 panel, but it was not offered in the Espresso color that I wanted, so I went with 5 panels. This is serving my purpose very well on hiding my dog's pee pads. I ended up using the 4 panel one in a corner behind my Christmas tree. The best thing is you do not have to put anything together, you just take it carefully out of the box and place it where you want it. It can be moved around very easily. Plus, these dividers start at the floor, so nothing is seen moving around on the other side like some other dividers I looked into. Now that I have a 4 and 5 panel one, I am sure that I can get them to overlap and work other ways should I need to in the future.
The best looking low cost room divider I've seen so far. Looking for something I can myself. I'm considering this idea. Thank you.
I hope this gives you ideas for your own setup!
So cute, you can use nano double side tape to hem the curtain 👍👍
Thanks for the suggestion! I'll add that to the description =)
Love the transformation from the POV of the office from the beginning to end
This is probably the cheapest idea I've seen, I definitely might try this
Duy, it doesn't look ghetto at all. The clips make it look "industrialized." The clips also can serve as a weight for the ends. You know what's ghetto, it's my solution to curtain hemming with clear tape. 🤗 Now that's ghetto, but it works until you wash them. Good problem solving on ur part.
LOL your solution seems a lot more discrete despite the washing setback. Thanks for your kind words of reassurance!
🙋🏻 thanks...and cheap.😁
Very helpful video, everything was clear and explained well. Also appreciate the products being listed in the discussion box, and the fact that he suggested the 1/2" instead of the 1" piping. Thanks for the help!!!
Thanks for the kind words! I hope your project comes out great and without any hitches.
Thank u for all the details on how u manage ur DIY on ur new background n dividing ur room..it looks GREAT!
Oh man, thank you so much for this diy!!! I live at an extended stay hotel and my husband works while I go to school online. I do my best work at night and this is going to be how I separate the room, so he can sleep and I can work on my studies at night. Awesome content. 😃
I like your clip hem! It also weights your curtain & keeps it hanging nicely.
I appreciate your positive outlook on my apparent shortcomings =)

Thank you for sharing your experience with curtain idea to divide
a space. You were very helpful.
Totally helpful.
I was thinking about taping or gluing two rods together because the area I need divided is about 20 feet. Boy, did this video help. Thanks for saving me!
I used those exact rods, but black, for outside curtains. We needed them for our lanai and pool privacy. A house was being built next door with complete view of our back yard. We planted clusia bushes and needed the curtains until the clusia grew enough for privacy. The curtains had the holes on the top and bottom to keep them from flying in the wind. They worked great and we were really happy with them. The heavy duty outdoor curtains worked for about 5 months before deteriorating in the harsh South Florida weather, they started letting off a fine dust. I needed to dump them. By that time the bushes grew large enough anyway. The rods rusted but still usable. Just needed to be cleaned. They are really good rods and I would use them again, even for outside. Just not the curtains. Need something to last longer. Eventually, someone will build a house on the other side of us and we'd need to find curtains for that side. The clusia on that side are smaller and taking longer to grow.
Wow, that's such a creative solution for privacy until your clusia grew large enough. Also, it's great to hear that the rods endured harsh weather conditions. Thanks for sharing your experiences!
Can't say I hate the binder clip idea. Gives it some extra weight. Thanks for the idea. 🤩
This is fantastic great idea! This is just what I’ve been looking for our travel trailer! Thank you so very much 👏🏽
I hope the project worked out great for your travel trailer! 😊
Thank you for this video; I'm solving the same issue working from home background. VERY helpful!
Holy moly I wish I could drill and put up a curtain. I got a divider to separate my living room from my little dining room.
Thank you so much, I have actually made a lot of research on how I can do this on a low budget. Thank you for guidance
Great job! Loved the customized hemming. 😉Thanks for sharing.
This is brilliantl, & affordable, exactly what I was looking for, but in a basement, TY for sharing.
I love this. I'm going to use this idea to divide my living room for a podcast thank you so much !!
Very excited for you to start the project and I wish you the best on your podcast!

Dude you're brilliant 👍. Looks grand!!! Just what I was looking for so thanks a million👌👌.
Hope your project goes perfectly without a hitch!
Thank you for this video, I am definitely going to try it for my at home work station. God bless you for sharing. 🤗😇🙏
Best of luck with your at-home workstation! I hope everything turns out great!
Thank you so much! I rescue small exotic animals and rehabilitate and rehome those who can safely be rehomed. I have a dedicated bedroom in my place for this, but it can be stressful for the animals to see other animals, even of the same type. So a divider that visually protects them from seeing one another is a way to give the most space to housing without the line of sight stressor. I will be using your system tomorrow!
Wow that's a wonderful program you're running! I hope this system helps reduces the stress on those sweet animals. Keep doing what you're doing! 🙏❤
I love this! Thank you for the video! My kids and I will have a great time with this project.
That was great Sir, for doing by yourself. Installing that curtains. I want also do it by my self insatalling curtain rod on my window soon. Thank you for this video Sir.
Good luck with your project! Hope it turns out well.
the binder clips are great when you don't have a way to sew also weights down the curtain down and not make it look so flowy. Thank you for sharing
I appreciate your reassuring comment. 😄
Thanks for sharing.I,was going to get the wooden divider.But,sense this video,I,will have to do the same thing..
I'm glad I was able to give you some other options! I hope your project comes out well. There are a few great suggestions of hemming your curtains in the comments if you want to avoid the cheap binder clip option.
Very smart solution and on a budget no less!
Great idea! I have the same problem and just ordered curtains to hide my background.
OH! I hope your project turns out well! Thanks for the compliment =)
This is so good. Thank you! Love the video and your presentation and vibe!
Duy, this is a great simple solution to a room divider. I am going to use this in my basement. Loved the video. You are too cute.
Thanks for the kind words! I hope your project went well.
You are amazing!!!! Thanks a million!! so detailed...
I appreciate your compliment! I hope this gives you some ideas for your project. =)
Looks great and a lot less work and expense!!👍🏼👍🏼
The binder clips were brilliant lol!
LOL "brilliant" may not be the most accurate description =)
love your inspiration - great project
Lmfaoooo I'm not sure why I'm dead @ when u pulled back the curtain and the bean bag was laying there tucked in🤣🤣
Buahaha, the bean bag put in some work that day helping me out, so he deserved a little nap =D

Thank you I will put this on a 4x4 piece of wood to the house to make a temp privacy for my pool area 🥰🥰🥰
Wow that's a great idea! the 4x4 will definitely be a lot sturdier and won't require the drywall anchors! Wish I can see your end result and good luck on the project!
I love binder clips. You did a great job❤
Instead of the clips, you can also use safety pins. You won't see it at all. No need to sew if you don't have to. I use pins on curtains that I use for multiple windows when changing curtains, some windows need it longer and some need it shorter so I like it being a temporary fix.
Love the idea, it looks great.
Another fantastic suggestion! Thank you =D
It looks good with the clips
This is what I'm trying to do in my basement to hide my furnace and hot water heater, since the basement is not finished right now. I'm going to Home Depot to get the materials, after I go measure the space. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
good luck with your project! I'm sure it'll come out great.
I think it looks great.😉
Works great, looks great and doesnt cost the earth, what more do you need! Thanks for sharing👍
I appreciate the comment! Thanks for your interest in the video!
Thanxs for sharing , it’s exactly what I need, my room has to double as my office, tv / reading nook, plus wardrobe and yours is the only video I could find was nearest to what I need. I want to try to do it for free so I may make a video to see if that is possible, thanxs again hun, x 🤓😎
Love this room divider idea thanks for sharing
Wow. I love the colour change. Great DIY for $65 and no one in your meetings will know. Looks like a nice and professional space for online meetings. I'm about to do the same for my at home business, except the curtain divider is going to hang between my living room and the kitchen to keep cool air in living space. I'm also using command hooks so I don't need to use power tools and have left over mess.
Hi. I see your comment is about 1 year old, did you follow through with this project? And if so, did the command strip work? I'm not opposed to using power tools, but the home I live in had a lot of abnormal build/electrical work done when first built in order to cut costs. I'm not sure I'll be able to find studs without going out and buying the reader, or if wires will be somewhere they shouldn't 😅
@@liliaunafoose5863 thank you for replying. I didn't need to be put the curtains up in the end, but I still use command hooks for everything whilst I'm in a rental. 🙂
Good job! Quick, easy, inexpensive, and very effective!
great job, thank you for the idea
Thank you so much for Sharing, you are so great!👍👍👍
Thanks for the kind words!
Looks like a great idea for my house. My upstairs has an old 'Jack and Jill' layout where there are three bedrooms and a bathroom, all in a loop around the stairway, so every room is accessible. These wall curtains seem like a good idea to form a hallway of sorts, so there is privacy between bedrooms.
YAS YAS YAS... this is brilliant... thank you!!!
Thanks! I hope you decide to try your hand at this project. =)
This is such an awesome idea! Thank you!
Great job Duy! ❤
Great job! You can use hem adhesive from Amazon for less than 2 bucks! You'll just need measuring tape and an iron
Thanks for the solid, budget friendly recommendation. =)
@@slipperynoodlez yes! Hem tape is amazing! I use it for curtains, slacks (not jeans), flannel pajamas. I even made and entire Halloween costume with it once. Awesome $2 investment!
Great job!
❤❤ love this idea great job!
This is a very helpful video. Thank you!
Just what I was looking for thank you.
This is what im looking for thanks for this

I like your calm voice, most videos shout at you
Brilliant! My laser in the garage approves!
I am extrenely grayeful for this video!!! Ty!!!💚😊
binder clips lol I've done that many times you can also buy adhesive velcro it works great on Fabric just fold it like a hemmed pant leg and then you will be set for the show.
LOL great minds think alike. Thanks for your alternative suggestion as well. 😀
Great idea! Good job, going to use it!
great video!! thankyou so much for making this video:) so happy it worked so well for you!
Thank you!
Turned out great.
Great video
Hi! Looks great! Uses hemming tape. You iron it on. 👍🏼
Thank you great idea !!!!!
Cleaver!!
Love this idea! Thank you!!
SO CUTE!!! Question: Do you have an iron? If you do, take off those binder clips and buy some IRON ON HEM TAPE. It costs about $5. Just fold the bottom of your fabric to the length you want, sandwich the hem tape in between the fold (closer to the top of the fold), then iron. That way you can more easily wash and dry your curtains and the finish will look nicer too. Good job on your divider!
I feel like it looks decent for a starter set for those meetings. Especially for recording.🤭🥰
Nice job
Duy...... thanks for sharing. Exactly what I'm looking for. Absolutely love 😍 it.
hahaha....good job....your adorable too!
Thanks for such kind words! ☺

Thank you for this would help me alot
Wonderful! Thank you so much!!! 🤗
Awesome work!
LOL you're just saying this because you know me
Thanks bro
Very cool!
love mr beans xD great vid
Nice job! You could use some stitch witchery. Just shorten the length and use the stitch witchery to iron the hem.
thanks for the advice! I'll add it on the description!
Well done
Thanks!
I was able to build, a very nice private curtain for my sons room. Thanks bro!
You deserve a lot of subscribers. Thank you!
And thank YOU for such kind words. =D
Great Job!!👍
Just use hemming tape for the bottom of your curtain lol.
LOL thanks for the suggestion. I'm learning a lot from these comments.
nice ❤
Excellent! I will search for someone to install same for me! Thanks!
There is something called stitch witchery that you can use it just irons on to make a hem. You don't have to sew anything. Lol! You can find it at any JoAnn's sewing stores or perhaps even Walmart.
