Even though our last
move was on short notice, we ended up in a really great house in a
family-friendly neighborhood. (Increased safety! Hooray!) We have a fireplace,
a garage, and more square footage than we know what to do with. The cozy space
gets plenty of natural light – something beloved cabin lacked. Packing and
moving can be a pain, but I always love unpacking. I enjoy the process of
rearranging furniture and envisioning our changing decorations with each season
and holiday. The proverbial “clean slate” always feels good, doesn’t it?
The first time we saw
the house, one thing pulled at my heart immediately. The front door is red! I only ever see when pulling in and out of
the garage, but boy, oh, boy! It makes me smile every time. For the sake of
privacy, we wanted to cover the small window beside it, and I knew exactly what
I wanted to do: Decorative window film to match the red door! S was not sold on
the stained glass design, but… he decided to let me win that battle. It’s
only temporary, after all. :)
After 75 minutes of
very careful measuring, trimming, spraying, and squeegee-ing… ta-da! I’m kind
of in love with it. (Thanks for appeasing my inner Old Lady, honey!)

I am by no means an experienced DIY-er, but I'm pretty proud of this little project! When we move out, all I have to do it peel it off and wipe down the window. Easy. I like that!

It looks fantastic! Great job! I didn't even know this was a possibility. I might have to try this as well!
Oh that red door is fabulous! That would make me smile every day too :-)
I love how you made the window your own too; so crafty!
That looks awesome!
