Window Privacy


If you are tired of feeling like the the world can peer into your home
at night or the mailman dropping off packages during the day. 
The neighborhood kids popping over to play with your littles, 
or just want to walk around in your bathrobe all day without 
feeling like a turd, then this privacy window film is for you!

Window Privacy Before & After

 I picked up a tube of 'window film' from Home Depot
and with a spray bottle of water and soap, it was very
easy to apply. I'd measure your window out first and then
cut to fit. You'll want to leave a little room on the edges, so
the air and water can be squeegeed out from underneath and 
give you a little room to move it around a bit if you are a 
perfectionist. I tried to pick out the less gaudy print without
it being too blah. The one I used is called Etched Lace.

Window Privacy Before & After

If you have high windows that can't be covered with 
curtains or that let in a bunch of sun or heat, 
you can buy tinted film as well. The lack of 
curtains that are bound to get dusty and the clean lines 
of simplicity appealed to me with this privacy film. 
I need to run out and buy more for our sunroom!

Vintage Circus Unisex Nursery Wall Art

After trying to locate all of the nursery photos to share with a friend 
the other day, I realized that I have not properly written a full post 
and shared photos, now that the nursery is completely done. 

The baby will be 9 months the end of this month, can't believe
it!! These photos were taken when she was a little bigger than a
newborn, 14 days old. She was a stinker and stayed awake
almost the entire photo shoot but I LOVE how they turned out.


The wooden Circus banner I found on Pottery Barn Kids for
a steal! Only $10 with free shipping, I couldn't pass it up!


The little red shelves are from Hobby Lobby, the perfect
planking of the repurposed window that I found on the curb
in Newport - thank you hubby for fixing it up a bit!

Vintage Circus Themed Baby Room (Part 2)

There are so many fun and whimsical features in our Vintage Circus Themed baby room, so I decided to split the photos up into a few different blog posts.

Below, I picked this canopy up from IKEA and pulled the nursery room colors from the pennants. Since we didn't know the sex of our baby, there is only a bit of pink in the room, on a few of the little circles on the canopy. But now that we know a little girl will be living here, the pink is perfect!


When we lived in Newport, I scored two of these old windows on someone's curb during trash day...they've traveled all the way to ND before one of them was transformed into a beautiful piece for the nursery. My hubby sanded down the window and then painted it a grey. He then aged it up a bit on the edges and then I lined the backs with some fabulous Circus paper I purchased through Stampin' Up!. As soon as I print out a few of the baby photos of our sweet little girl, I will put them inside a few of the window panes. I used washi tape to attach the papers inside the panes to make it easier to pull out when I'm adding the photos.



I added a sweet little paper banner for a bit of whimsy...


more to come...stay tuned!!
