Make Your RV Shine: Easy Faux Stained Glass Privacy Hack

on this video we are talking privacy in the RV how to cover those unwanted [Music] [Music] windows so in this video we are talking about Windows and the ones that you don't want anybody to see in we're going to talk about covering those kind of Windows without using blinds or curtains and it will be something that would be removable if you ever decided you didn't want it the first thing that I'm going to talk about in this video is called Gallery glass you can do lead glass windows without knowing how to do any kind of artistic ability there's so many different options with this so this comes in all kinds of colors it comes in clear it comes in white you can make your own patterns or make it look like anything that you want I have a window in our house that's in our bathroom it's an octagon window I used Gallery glass and it has at least been 16 years ago easily 16 years ago is when we redid and got that bathroom we had that window and I didn't like that it was plain so I went and bought this Gallery glass and used it on that window now that window does get a lot of Evening Sun so it gets hot and it is still there just as good and looks exactly the same as it did the day that I've installed it I went to go buy some cuz I was wanting to show you what this looks like now when I did that window and they still have it it was like a leting strip it come in Long strips and then you just cut it when I did it I just had an xacto knif and I just cut it and then you just put it up how you wanted it to look you followed the lines now those were like $20 just for those strips and if I was doing a window that I wanted to keep and use this for it wouldn't be a problem cuz obviously I bought them when I did that window but I didn't want to buy them just for this video because I don't really have a window that I want to use it on and I just wanted to tell y'all about this so I did buy some clear the white and some just liquid leting cuz they make it in a liquid form it is a little harder to put on and if you get the sticks you do want the liquid leting too because what I did to make mine look more like Le glass I took the leting and put it everywhere and everywhere that it touched I took the liquid leting and put like a DOT over the top of it to make it look like it had been soldered then after you do that then you just fill in what colors you want in the different sections and that's it now if you use the leting that I was telling you about that's in the strips you can put it on and then right after start filling in if you buy the liquid leting you have to outline or do whatever you want and then you've got to let it sit for 24 hours before you fill in the colors because if you don't they'll mix together and I did buy some little beads cuz I thought I was going to be cute and do something a little bit different cuz I did buy a piece of plexiglass cuz I wanted to show you how this goes on and all I did was found a butterfly coloring book page I put it behind it I taped it onto the glass and then I traced all the lines with the liquid lead and then I let it sit for 24 hours so it took it Harden and then I filled in with the colors and I found these cute little beads and I thought oh this is like a good idea I think this could be pretty yeah I guess it could be pretty but because I was laying down it worked but I got to thinking if you were doing it on a window like this it would be so hard to get the beads into that paint if you're on a vertical surface so I don't know that those were such a great idea but I bought them cuz I thought it was going to be cute now the great thing about this is you can put this on any glass and then if you decide that you don't want it anymore you can just take it peel it off it completely comes off in one piece and you don't even have to mess with it anymore now another way that you can use the liquid lead is you can draw out straight lines let that Harden peel it off and then stick it onto the glass like the other little strips are but the other strips to me it just looks more like your leaded glass if that is the look you're looking for now you don't even have to put the leaded look into the window if you want a window just so that nobody can see in or see out you can take the clear the white the colored and swirl it and it will make it where it's opaque and you cannot see through so you can just do the whole window with that but I really feel like this is a great and can be somewhat inexpensive way to transform a window from something that you can see in to where it's not as easy to see in now the next option is and I have not used this but I have seen a lot of people talk about it on YouTube is it's a film that makes the glass look opaque or not see through and it is basically like peeling stick wallpaper for your window at any point if you get tired of it you just peel it off and it's gone if you don't like to paint or don't feel like you have an artistic touch that you want to tackle painting on the lead this would be a great option as well I will leave a link to everything I've talked about today in the description the gallery glass you can get it at Hobby Lobby you can get it at Walmart they are really limited on what they have at Walmart I got mine at Hobby Lobby and then Michaels and stuff like that you can even get it there Hobby Lobby had a good selection there they did not have the pieces of strips of leting the only place that I've been able to find that is on Amazon but I feel like both of these are really great options for those windows that you want to make it where people can't see in but yet the light still comes in I hope this video helped you and also we are getting so close to 5,000 subscribers and when we do I'm going to do a
