If you have a space that needs a separation but not a door, perhaps you’ve considered a beaded curtain. Or maybe you want a fun and festive look for a party. These gentle barriers provide that sense of space while allowing light and sound to filter through. Made of strands of beads that hang from above, they’re less permanent than a door and easy to switch out.
Most arrive pre-hung on a bar that hooks to the door frame or ceiling from eyelets, and many can be cut down in both length and width to work precisely for your space. They are also relatively easy to clean by running a damp rag over the beads or using a microfiber cloth.
Whether your vibe is boho or chic, there’s a beaded curtain out there for your space. We’ve found a collection of interesting options for you here that range from disco metallic to natural woods.
1. Teardrop Beaded Curtain
Tiny clear acrylic teardrops cascade from the ceiling to the floor in this understated curtain. It comes with eyelets for ease of hanging and can be hung from a door frame, ceiling or wall. Use it in your doorway, over a window, or even as a space divider in a room.
It’s 72″ long and 35.5″ wide and is easy to install in multiples or cut down to a narrower size if needed. The length is also easy to trim that it will change the design slightly if cut from the bottom up.

3. Boho Style Wooden Bead Divider
This is a beautiful geometric door divider made of small smooth-finished wooden beads. It will make you think of islands in the Pacific, and cool breezes from the beach, and the beads will make a subtle click as you walk through them.
Each line is hand strung with dozens of small non-toxic natural beads. 35″ wide by 86″ in length, it can be trimmed easily for the width, but if trimmed up from the bottom, the beads will need to be refinished, so they don’t come apart.
