Great idea. Thanks for the video.
*I do video meetings regularly in my bedroom **do7.pl/SDivider** with my computer facing my bed and didn’t want people to see my private quarters (especially if I felt lazy and didn’t make the bed, which was often). Virtual backgrounds on Zoom are pretty clunky still, especially if lots of moving around, so I wanted something physically in between me and the room. Also looked for something that was decent in quality and price. Found this and it has done the job. Sturdy, wide enough to cover everything, and very easy to put away when not in use (folds up to about the width of 4 fingers). Only complaint is people joke that it looks like I’m in a shower X-D*
Useless video
how do you secure the bookshelf so it doesn’t fall over?
Outstanding

I am literally obsessed with your videos. You are an utter genius and I’ve been looking for someone like you for such a long time. Most people are renters and truly want their places to reflect themselves without having to put in money to a property that isn’t owned and to not break any lease requirements. Thank you times a million for the content you have released and please please continue to build your channel.
Haha I’ve used eyeshadow to cover up wallpaper tear also!,
I luv this divider!
Your ideas and plans are amazing!! Love it!
How did you learn about all this wood work?
Great video! I’m wondering if I could use 1/2 drywall instead of 1/4 plywood
This is such a good idea!
Good idea!!!
creativity at its best!
