To cover or not to cover this window
7 years ago
Should this very large and non opening window on the first floor, be framed or should shutters or blades be made. Maybe timber batons positioned horizontally.
Any advise is helpful

Comments (45)I also have a window like that in our shower - it may, but doesn't normally get wet from the shower. I have put in a thin venetian blind in white (made from plastic) very cheap, under $5. I am in process of making an puffy austrian blind to hang above the window, for a bit of colour I am making it from a shower curtain). It will be there for looks, I may never pull it down.

Comments (10)Something to consider with roller blinds- The blockout ones can really block the airflow in Summer, and if you do leave the louvres open, the slightest breeze will cause the bottom rod to bang against the window frame. You can fix them so they don't do this, but again you have the reduced airflow.....which is why you have louvres in the first place. We have the same problem. My son's bedroom. He seems to have adjusted to no window coverings. Luckily we have no privacy issues....See MoreWindow coverings ??

You don’t have much wall space to draw curtains back off the windows and would block ac so if you want to keep the view out during day internal blinds to supplement the external are you best option, with 2 for the window with the ac....See More
