Window Film

I've been wanting to get something to block the windows in the downstairs hallway. We have these 2 windows that are 22.5" wide and 46" tall. They look right out onto the narrow pathway between us and our neighbors. There is a custom fitted blind on one of them that came with the house, but it is red and the walls are green. So, it doesn't go. I need to replace it, but I'd like to make the 2 windows match and having blinds on the one closest to the door wouldn't be very practical.

Anyway, I've been browsing around for window film, but I didn't actually know it was called that. Most of the ones I find aren't really our style or the colors are wrong, etc. But I found one that I like a lot. http://wallpaperforwindows.com/shop/customer/product.php?productid=312&cat=70. I don't have a time to price compare or do much other stopping right now because I'm busy, busy at work and already have taken too much time on this non-essential thing. However, I wanted to get this down here so I'll have the link and the measurements someplace I can refer back to. And maybe, just maybe, Mosquito will decide to take the time to look around on the interwebs a little more in all his spare time. :D

dance costumes

Ballroom dance costumes are very expensive. And I'm picky about what I wear. So, I'm going to look into making one. It'll be a while before we're actually good enough for me to need to have one, but it'll also take me a while to get started thinking about it and practicing.

I found a website with some how-tos and tips, etc. http://www.dancesportimage.com/

Here's a manual for $45 http://www.dancesportballgowns.com/manual.html

And some tips can be found on the dance forums
