Please reconsider putting any sort of fabric in front of a space heater as it is a very unsafe. No fabric is nonflammable, it is just fire resistant, at best. Which means it burns slowly in the event of a fire, not that it will not catch fire in the first place.

Perhaps getting a decorative metal screen would be a wiser choice as metal is fire proof. Decorative cut metal sheets are available at your local home improvement store in several patterns. Cut a sheet to size, frame it and cover the heater.

I make drapery for residential and commercial applications. Fire codes prohibit covering space heaters with fabric. Please do not do that as you are sure to start a house fire.
