With the spacing and stripes, you should be able to figure out the height of all the stripes along with the spacing. Where did you get the contact paper? Thank you!
I just signed up for your blog! HI, I have used this window stuff before and found it to bubble up. It is very difficult to get the air bubbles out. Why is this happening? I love the idea and want to do it to my back door which has a clear glass. Any ideas?? You just go a few inches and I really think the two people working together will fix it.
Beautiful job you and your husband did. Thanks Janet! You should totally do it. Thanks Amy! Unfortunately, the shower curtain is really old. I scored it at Goodwill a few years back but it was originally from Target. No problem!
Contact paper provides privacy while allowing natural light to shine […]. I wish I had pictures of it but 4 years ago long before I had the blog , I used translucent contact paper to add a privacy film on the shower doors -something you need when you have a toddler walking around Ashley shows you how to use it to add privacy to a bathroom window.

For our pattern, we followed the Fibonacci sequence for the width of the frosted film strips. Starting on one side, we pulled the backing off the frosted film and started attaching it to the window.
Go slowly with a straight edge and push any air bubbles out of your privacy window film. Continue until you have covered the window. Share Pin Keep In Touch Sign up for my weekly emails to see new projects, plus what I'm doing behind-the-scenes. Opt in to receive news and updates.
Comments Looks great. I love the different sized stripes! Since there seems to be confusion as to whether I stole the template and idea I never claimed that this was my original idea, nor did I admittedly take the time to look further than the photo I saw on Pinterest. I have sufficient enough knowledge to create my own template in Illustrator and the concept is simple enough. Especially when the Pin I saw even mentioned that it was done using contact paper. Advertisement As with almost EVERY idea on Pinterest it all has a source somewhere and has been recreated numerous times by lots of people.
What appears to be the original source is mentioned in a previous comment. Here it is again: 7thhouseontheleft. Hope you all enjoy the results as much as I did. Just wondering does the contact come off the window with the steam and humidity from bath and shower? LOVE the idea. I had brought some sheer curtains now that I have seen this idea I am going to add it for further privacy great idea.
I just did this for my dads apartment! Worked perfectly! My suggestions I used a ballpoint pen to trace the stencil onto the contact paper. And the other hint I have is how to easily pull the contact paper backing off? If you press a piece of masking tape onto the edge of the backing, it usually pulls the backing apart from the contact film.
Worked like a charm! Love this idea!! Thanks for sharing. Is this also removable? Love this idea for my apartment. Great idea! This looks super! Does the "frosted" appearance help with privacy at night? I'm trying to work with two small bathroom windows that need help with privacy at night. That looks fantastic, you did a great job! I used contact paper on our bathroom window. It has "privacy glass", but it just didn't seem private enough. I just cut the sheet to fit the window.
I used one of the opaque "marble" designs. Had I known about this technique, I might have tried it. Oh and there was never a prob with humidity either. Someone asked what it was like to remove. I had mine up for years and finally the adhesive started to wear out, it was a very sunny window. At that point it had become brittle. Some parts came off easily in large pieces the rest it "broke" into sticky little bitty pieces and I had to use a razor to scrape.
Aside from that tiny annoyance, it worked great. Making a Contact Paper Shamrock Suncatcher. Making Blackout Window Curtains. Saving Money on Drapes, Blinds and Window Making a Window More Private. Frugal Kitchen Window Covering Ideas. Removing Contact Paper From Windows?
