So, today's project has been a long time coming{ten months to be exact}. I know I've mentioned before about my love of windows & how we have them in abundance now in our new place. And although, the light that flows in is very beautiful, I would rather maintain a little bit of privacy, especially in our foyer. You could opt for window treatments but this way you still retain a bit of daylight. So, I decided to make a privacy film and give myself a little peace of mind.
The first step was making a stencil & layout. I used my handy Silhouette machine to make the project a bit more manageable. You could totally do this by hand, but that would be like a full day's project & I just don't have that kind of patience{or time}.
I measured the windows & made sure the stencil would fit perfectly before making any cuts.
Then, I put the contact paper on my mat & let the machine do the Then I simply pulled them off & attached them onto our window.
This takes a bit of time since you have to line them up & make sure they are spaced properly. But it's totally worth it!
The nice thing about this project, is that if you decide you don't love the look you can easily take it down.
Are you a fan of the frosted privacy film?
