Just put curtains or a good set of miniblinds on it!

I like a bathroom window for light and moisture regulation. But I’ve always lived in humid areas on the east coast. You can put a layer on the bottom pane with a covering that blurs the glass. I’ve seen some that look like stained glass and look very beautiful.

We remodeled our bathroom in our old house and there was a window in the shower. We put a frosted glass window in. It let all kinds of light into the bathroom without having to worry about someone seeing in.

We did as well several years ago now and definitely love it my concern is if grid goes down how do I darken it.

My bathroom window has a frosted bottom pane and a regular pane for the top. I get light and privacy.

Always a good idea for free light

A frosted glass is great, but so it a sun roof if you just want the light.

You are in the age of surveillance drones. With minimal effort, someone can find your location, send out a drone to recon the place. In ten years, you may be able to hire out the job, no matter what the level of intrusion.

Now, Is it a probability? Ida know, how many people have you ticked off, or, um, ‘intrigued’? That’s probably one of the numbers for a variable in your calculations.

My sitch is the opposite. I like some privacy, the wife doesn’t care–unless I am outside in my underwear, somehow.

Anyway, what I did at my price point, was salvage a few of the uv-resistant, polycarbonate diffraction gratings off of disused fluorescent lighting rectangles. I was gas going to put sections of them up in the old house over windows where people could see right in to our bathroom area. She “wants light”? Okay, this provides all the light. it’s not even frosted, its a series of convex lenses the size of your pinky. You’d really have to be up on it to even get a fighting chance of looking in. No, she wants to be able to “look out”. Okay., I’m out. Happy Wife, Happy Life.

But this line of thinking may be of use to you someplace.

I love this point. Lots to always consider

Could just be one more window to board up in an LCE.

Full disclosure: this is coming from someone that would require multiple trips to a lumber store to board up all my windows…

Most conservative ladies do not like the idea of anything (birds, bears and boys) being able to see into an area where we are in our birthday suit. I had a shower in my previous house that I came to love…at first it felt a little ’80s porn film like, but after using it I realized just how perfect it was….big skylight above the shower space (4’x4′). Moonshine coming through at night that would filter all through the bathroom, seeing the beautiful blue sky, patchy clouds, snow on it….what can I say!!!! I’ve designed hundreds of homes for clients and always frowned on windows in a shower, did the frosted, stained glass, glass block ideas a lot; but all these glass options allow shadows to be seen outside, mold can grow on the sills…what can I say they were never perfect….But that skylight, I hated to leave that house…but we had to find our freedom on 12.5 acres so I had to leave it ……

The entire outside wall of my grandparents bathroom, in Apache Wells, AZ, was a window. They had a sunken bath, so when you sat down, you were at ground level. It looked out on a small desert rock, which was surrounded by a high privacy fence. Lots of light, and the coolest bathroom ever in my mind.

We had a window in our bathroom at our previous house. We miss not having one in this one. It wasn’t in the shower, but, right next to it. Once out & decent, was nice to open up & enjoy fresh air & sunshine.

Tint window, you can see out can’t see in. Agree with others about added light.

[brightbeautifuldays]

If you put the stained glass stick on on the window it lets the light in while making it not see through. A lot of people sell it on Etsy.

We have a window in our shower. Of course it is at the same level as all other windows throughout the house. I do NOT like it. BUT, I just made a curtain using a fabric that I also use for the shower curtain, that is waterproof. We redid our bathroom in 2016, and this is the window in the shower.
