Privacy and sunlight. A great combo
I have a living room that faces the road as well as my neighbor’s house and it felt like a cave because my curtains are always drawn. I don’t m want my neighbors to see me in my boxers on my couch so I rarely opened the curtains. These window clings were a nice solution to let in the light and still allow me to be a naked couch potato.Easy installation for the most part. Make sure you have sharp boxcutters or use scissors for a clean cut. Cut it slightly oversized (by maybe a half inch on each side). Clean the window with Windex first. Then spray the window liberally with water. Pull the entire plastic backing off the window cling and then place the cling on the window. Smooth out the bubbles with a credit card or a ruler, and trim off the excess.Now here’s the trick to get the edges flat without curling up (because it comes rolled up, the cling can curl up or bubble on the edges). Use a hair dryer on the hottest setting and blow the edges flat (pressing it down as you go along). This will ensure the edges lay flat on the window.The cling is textured on one side, so it doesn’t feel or look cheap. Gives a nice diamond reflective look to the windows. I’m still torn between it looking pretty cool, and also a little tacky. It works though!Allows a great amount of shimmering light into my living room, gives me my privacy, and allows me to keep my windows unblocked.The only thing is that it IS see-thru if you get very close to it and look through the diamond patterns (see photos). But you need to be right up against the window for this, and if someone is that close - you probably should call the cops by that point, because you will definitely notice them.Overall this was a good purchase in my opinion. Did everything I needed it to, privacy and light, and it doesn’t look too shabby.Ver másVer menos
