This DIY is quick, easy, fun and cheap. What could be better!?
If you have any windows in your home or apartment where you want the natural light but need a little privacy, this is a truly lovely solution.
Granted, it is a bit feminine but I am wondering how we can use this idea and make it masculine, as well…
Maybe you can think of some ideas as you scroll down the next page…

you could use organza or netting !
cammo netting would be a nice male touch
I did this years ago with good but thinish fabric, using liquid starch and you can cover wastebaskets, lampshades and whatever, even walls or partial ones. Just pull starting at one corner to remove and wash off. This would work well for door windows.
Would you say the corn starch washes off easily if down the line you decide to remove it? Been thinking about doing something similar to the lower window of our sidedoor.
Donna Cash Wiwczar there’s a cool ithis Wise DIY Idea for a daybed /couch for Don to make out of pallets under DIY
I did it. I put a little food color in to the mix.
HOW ABOUT THE BAGS ONIONS OR FRUIT COMES IN AND CUT THEM IN WINDOW SIZE RETANGLES…
how about those plastic net bags onions and fruit comes in some are little square ..i think some taters comes in them too…u could cut them into retangels easily…
Would tulle (tutu material) work? It is like a mesh fabric, with many color choices.
Mindy Harmon this is a cool idea
Tried i messed up, but gonna try again
o ok, let me know I might do something to our windows, maybe tulle?
Interesting 🙂
Tissue paper works too.
What do you use to take it off with when you want to try another fabric ?
Does it come off, I want to put it on my patio door in my apartment and will have to remove it when I leave
COOL IDEA!
very cool
Hi,
I just viewed your terrific idea. How well does this last if windows get fogged up with moisture?
I really want to try this
Alexandria Lostlove Sheff have to try this some where. Maybe here in the laundry room when it is finally mine to do with.

Beautiful
bring on the bugs
they forgot to mention that this needs to be done on the interior of the window- and yes, a nice sheer in any color works great- tends to give a stained glass effect if colored…
Some tween-targeted store used to cover the walls in their dressing rooms with overlapping sheets of different colors of what looked like tissue paper…I always wanted to try that somehow. Maybe tissue paper wouldn’t be too feminine?
How can one ‘literally’ paint? It is a beautiful result.
What is clean up like?
Just a sheer, it should work according to ths.
I did a similar look on a powder room window in a town home we lived in, using hot glue gun and lace curtain. ibl
My husband want an SF Giants logo. 🙂
Liquid starch works just as well…way cool
you can also do this to walls when you rent an apt. but they have to be semi gloss painted….flat paint not so good lol
Maybe try food coloring or plain wax paper for the men’s version?
Lace for girls, use netting, to make it look like a fish net, or cob webs.
I would love to try this on my bathroom windows.
looks beautiful-wonder how long it lasts
I did this. I used lace valance curtains and it really works!
this is really cool
What a cool idea!
Looks great!
for a boys room how about the camouflage net used to make rifle cover blind? can get it at different fabric stores
Tried to go to this site, but stopzilla says it is a bad site?
U
Done this, liked to never got it all off ! I say pass on this.
I might use netting instead of lace for a boy’s room………
very pretty and I love it
Beautiful
Awesome!
Peggy, have you tried this?
Get your lace curtain at a thrift store too!
Wish I had known about this when I was an adolescent. I used to paint with tempera paint on my bedroom windows to do the same kind of thing.
