Our bathroom window is on the side of the bungalow and is overlooked by our NDN. I don’t want a blind or curtains but have been thinking about the screening that is attached to the glass for modesty purposes - had a very unnerving incident last week when the NDN was clearly standing at the fence on his side looking directly at our bathroom window.

I want something to just make it a little more private when washing, showering etc. any ideas welcome GNetters. Thank you 😊

Our dog used to bark every time someone walked down the road. I put some privacy screen half way up that I bought from Amazon. Very easy to do and I am pleased with it. The light diffuses through. In the heat, I was able to sit here rather scantily dressed with no worries.

Be aware that some screening can be seen through if you put your indoor light on!

As Squiffy says be very careful about privacy screening.

What about frosted glass in the window.
Possibly expensive but a permanent solution.

There is already frosted glass fitted but from the outside it is still possible to see images on the inside. I guess my only option is a blind really……..just want to stop the bloke next door from watching me have a wash.
