or perhaps by setting its name to something that's normally hidden? Here is a truly hideous way of doing this:

tell application "Finder"
set name of file myVisibleFile to ".invisible file"
end tell

That works to make a folder invisible but since the finder can't see an invisible folder, you can't undo it.
