The autumn nights are drawing in again (Boooooo Hiss!!!) and as big windows plus Mr M’s love of walking round butt naked is not a good combo, I decided to order some opaque film for our south facing bedroom windows. I love the light coming in during the day but until the house is renovated, refuse to spend a fortune on window blinds & dressings, so film seemed the perfect ‘for now’ choice.
I hadn’t used the Window Film Company before but loved one of the more decorative options on their web-site. Must admit to totally messing up the first one, in spite of doing loads of window film in the past – doh! The pattern I chose is so delicate and intricate that you have to leave the holding paper on for 24hrs, which is dead easy to do, but me (being such a #blonde) didn’t read the instructions properly. That’ll teach me…..
Looks great now it’s done PROPERLY, doesn’t it?!
Thanks for your help with the second sheet of film Micky on Twitter






Oh this is beautiful! We have a bathroom window which looks over the car park next door. It’s a very pretty little country pub car park I hasten to add, but nonetheless we prefer not to entertain their patrons with our oblutiions! Problem is it is a multi pane window so I would have to buy lots of little squares of window film, Amanda
You could get a still pretty but fully patterned film and cut it to the size of the panes before you take the paper backing off? It’s easy to cut to size and fit, I only messed this one up because it’s an unusual technical pattern in the centre of the sheet and I didn’t allow it time enough to adhere properly.
