Privacy Screens: Dressing screens

Reviewed by:

Dressing screens like these were necessary accoutrements in the Victorian boudoir. Bi-fold screens from Coppa Woodworking are made with 3/4" pine frames in three sections. Double hinges allow the screens to swing both ways, and trim details are identical on front and back.

Standard screens measure 60" tall by 72" wide. Custom sizes can be special ordered. Three styles are offered: All fabric, all wood or half fabric/half wood.

No sewing skills are needed to install cloth panels, which are secured with "stretcher bars."
