When Janet Lee first moved into her tiny studio apartment, it was a blank box of white walls and neutral parquet floors. As a renter, she wasn’t able to add any actual architectural details for visual interest, so she faked the look by bringing plenty of depth to her bland folding closet doors, creating an inexpensive and removable solution that anyone can do at home. 
The trick? She used super low-cost canvas stretcher bars from the art supply store (30¢ a foot) and attached them with 3M adhesive strips ($3.99). Since the stretcher bars already come with mitered corners, building the frames is super simple, with no tools or sawdust required.
Janet’s project comes from YouTube’s SPACEStv home and design channel, and their new series called “Tiny, Eclectic, Amazing Spaces,” which profiles people who are living large in small spaces.

I love the great creativity with the closet door. Bravo!
