We have been having a bit of an update to our windows, we are renewing the window foil on our living room windows as it was really noticeable when we put it on the downstairs window, I am not sure if the ones upstairs had faded through the years as they were certainly more noticeably "see through" as apposed to the original mirror finish.
The original window foil versus..
The new foil....wow, what a difference!!
We also decided it was time to get rid of the cream vertical blinds, we wanted something fresher and less cluttered looking, so we opted for simple white roller blinds.
I got this stunning curtains for half price from Spotlight to which we added some cascading waterfall lights behind it which gives a really romantic cosy feel to the room.
So we had a brainwave to see if heating it up would work better, and voila!!, it did!.
Taking the old foil off.
1st August we had planned to give the outdoor window frames a coat of white paint but needless to say it was raining again, seriously, we are all going to grow webbed feet shortly!
We still had to replace the foil on the side windows of our bedroom so that's what we did instead, although it proved extremely time consuming as even with using the heat from the hairdryer to remove the film, the adhesive stuck fast to the glass so it had to be painstakingly removed by soaking, rubbing and scraping with a sharp blade.
