Need New Window Treatment in Bathroom (any ideas)?

I really don't like the shower curtain type material I have on the window anymore. It was a quick fix when we moved in, but I really don't like it. It seems to dark and it's just too long. The whole wall and the inside of the window frame is all tile. Any ideas? Also the window is not frosted. We really only have no neighbor in the back, but in the winter with no tree then they could see right in. So do you think I would frost it and put some faux wood blinds up if we can drill into the tile or grout? Any suggestions would be great. Thanks! Chat Icon

We do have a skylight in the bathroom also, so that lets nice light in for most of the day.

I would do a thin mini blind or shutters.

I hadn't thought of shutters. Would you go with the darker wood, since the vaniety is a darker cherry wood? I like this idea.

I did not install it yet but I got those film covers for windows. Some have designs. It's a privacy film!

Mine is in the tone of blues with flowers.

They had "rice paper", etc...

I got it as HD.

we are def. putting up this film cover, but I just don't feel like it is enough when it's dark outside and you have the light on inside. You will be able to see a shadow and the window comes down pretty far when you are standing in the shower. Chat Icon

I'd probably do a color that matches your trim or even your tub. Cherry might stick out too much, KWIM?

You can buy window frost in a can and frost the window yourself...

You have a point. OK, so maybe I will look at beige or white shutters or faux blinds. Thanks! Chat Icon
