I just did this on my teeny-tiny basement bathroom’s window (the shower in there hasn’t been used in 2 years, we’re not concerned about humidity) and it worked like a charm. It looks fantastic. Thanks so much for the how-to!

I love this idea. I’m trying it this week with our failed ikea window panels on our bedroom windows. Yes, the whole window.
Thanks for the details!

For people who asked about doing this in the bathroom, I used clear patterned contact paper on the showers in the bathroom. The shower glass doors were always soap scumed and I hated it so I installed the contact paper and it has worked like a dream. Of course now I have the Pscycho problem as I can’t see someone coming at me with a butcher knife in hand in the bathroom.

It could definitely be used on regular windows and I’ve seen several people around the net do that! I might stay away from bathrooms because of the humidity, though (I don’t KNOW if it would be a problem, I’ve never tried it). The opacity will depend largely on the fabric you use, but I think mine provides quite a lot of privacy while still letting light through, which was the goal. Might be able to see some movement and shadows, but I’d say it’s about as private as most curtains except for ones designed to block light entirely. Hope that helps!

Is this advisable to use on regular windows, in an apartment? How opaque is it. And how much privacy will it provide at night, with say the lights on?

I absolutely loved this! Followed your directions and covered my son’s street facing windows with a white on white patterned fabric, they look amazing :) Thank you!!
