I live in a mobile home and in my master bathroom, I have a frosted glass window by the garden tub.

Question by ivanmyheart: I live in a mobile home and in my master bathroom, I have a frosted glass window by the garden tub.?
The problem I’m having is that from the outside, you can kinda see the outline of the person who’s in the tub when they’re standing, as in, when I get out of the tub. So my question is this: does anyone have any ideas on window treatments that would look good right there, in the bathroom? Please give details….I really appreciate it!!

The humidity in your bath is a huge factor in determining what you should do for window treatments. Anything fabric or cloth or organic (bamboo etc) will just get moldy and mildew. Your window treatments, over time will grow it too, in a humid bathroom. Stick with plastic blinds, easily cleaned!

You could also try covering it from the outside maybe with a small fence, awning, etc.

Q&A: Sliding glass door window treatments…please help?

Question by Amy D: Sliding glass door window treatments…please help?
We are building a new home, we are now doing the window treatments. We have hardwood floors and a very light neutral color on the wall. We went to the store to order our window treatments and she suggested we get the closest color to the WALL color for our sliding glass door treatment that is located in the kitchen. And to also use the same color for the window above the kitchen sink. Oh these are vertical blinds for the sliding glass door.
We just need some ideas or better yet if this is the best way to do this? Thanks!!

It sounds like that person has no imagination or no interior design ideas. For my slider I put antiqued cream wide slat venetian blinds with brown fabric ribbon/tape which runs vertically. I got them at Home Depot and there is a wide selection of colors for these tapes and you can coordinate it to go with anything in that room. They look great and I am having a padded cornice made for the top in the fabric of my choice. I wanted privacy in my kitchen/dining room, but I also wanted the sun. These blinds are just the trick. The only down side is that if you use that slider door a lot you do have to raise the blinds each time or keep it raised for a period of time. It works for me and you don’t see my dog’s nose marks with the blinds in place. Vertical blinds are sort of passe now. At least that’s what I have been told. The padded cornice will match the kitchen window or be a coordinate fabric.

Q&A: Window Treatments for a sliding glass door?

Question by cmljsd27: Window Treatments for a sliding glass door?
I have a sliding glass door in my dining room that does not get used at all and I was wondering if It would be ok to take down the plain blinds that are there now and decorate it with regular panels and a valance. Or maybe put a valance up now and leave the blinds with it. I am really bad at window treatments! Any advise would be helpful. Thanks!

Answer by keezymama
Yes you can put up normal curtain on your sliding door – plan on having the curtains hang in front of the wall on either side – rather than the glass – this makes your glass look – bigger – but also makes it so if you want to open the door the curtains are not in the way. You might want to consider either a traverse rod so you can close the curtains or still having a blind mounted behind the valance so that you can close of the opening for the purposes of privacy or to darken the room.
