10 Ways to Decorate Using Decorative Window Film

Posted by admin on May 7th, 2009 filed in General

For those people that live in extremely sunny parts of the world, window film can be a necessity.
Quality window film can block 80 – 95% of Ultra violet radiation which helps preserve the color of their furniture and floor coverings.  Not to mention that it can also block a majority of the heat from the sun which can provide tremedous energy savings.  Homeowners can sometimes notice their Air Conditioning bills drop by 30,40 and even 50%.  But if you’ve got a design flare for your home and love decorating, a new type of window film is becoming more popular. It’s known as Decorative Window Film

Check out these 10 tips to add some flare to your windows.

1. Stained Glass Window Film

Always loved the beautiful stained glass in your mom’s house or at church?  Now you can get an "instant" stained glass window with an easy application of cling window films.  Its easy to install, easy to take off, and can really turn a drab boring view of the alley into something beautiful.

2. Block Prying Eyes In Your Shower

Do you own a solid glass shower? Most likely it looks great clean…but not so great with the Hard water stains, etc.  Also, when your significant other or even worse..your father-in-law walks in on you, you’ve got nothing to hide behind in a plain glass shower.   Decorative Window film is a great way to hide those prying eyes from certain "areas" of sight.   Because there is no adhesive that is used, next time you want to remodel the bathroom,  just buy another pattern and voila!  instant upgrade

 3. Graveyard Shift? Block that Light!

If you have worked the vampire shift, you know how difficult is to block every ounce of light from your room at 10 AM in the morning.  Instead of hanging blankets and sheets over your curtain rods, why not pick up a roll of solid pattern decorative window film for when you sleep.  Again, since there is no adhesive, just put it on for your week’s shift, and pull it off when your done.  Fast, easy, and more appealing than living like a hobo.

4. Decorate Junior’s room

Kids and young adults love window film.  It adds a "cool" vibe to their domain without doing any real damage like when your oldest painted her ceiling black and neon pink. 

5. Turn the Alley window into Art

I"m sure you have at least one window in your house that is ugly. Its facing the alley, your neighbors bathroom, the garbage bins, etc.  Why not pick a beautiful mosaic deocorative window film and get the view you’ve always wanted. 

 

6. Turn your Foyer Side Lights into Expensive Glass inserts

Frosted Glass sidelights increase the price of your Foyer Door’s sidelights by double at least.  Why not buy the regular inserts and upgrade them for practically nothing using window film?

 

7. Frosty Windows

I love this option for the winter time. Sure you can use it for all kinds of other reasons, but frosty windows in the winter are just lovely.  Not to mention you don’t have to scrape all the spray frost off the windows at the end of the season :-)

8. Protect Your Privacy and still look good doing it

Privacy is a big reason people choose window film.  It makes sense.  But blocking peoples view of what is going on in your house doesn’t mean it has to be ugly.  Add flare and style to your home, AND keep busy bodies out.

9. Etching adds class

Etched glass is expensive. Etched glass in custom sizes for your particular situation is REALLY expensive.  A nice touch of etched glass window film is that you can experiment with different patterns and placements and really get the most value out of sprucing up your house.

 10. Potty time should be private time
 Life can have many awkward moments.  One of them shouldn’t be your spouse or significant other working in the yard and seeing WAY more than they bargained for.   Eh…if you’ve got a ground floor bathroom, there is no better solution than window film for keeping your bathroom time private.
