Problem Solved


"I can do all things through Him who strengthens me."
Philippians 4:13

~~~***~~~

Our bedroom window needs
 privacy and yet, some light.

When we first moved in I
TAPED, GLUED, VELCRO-ED, TICKY-TACKED
and just about went crazy trying to
get some lace to stay put!

Finally, I used a combination of ALL
of the above to keep the lace in place.

But then we couldn't open the window for
fresh air!


I came across the easiest solution!
The best part was, I had all the tools and
 ingredients in my kitchen.
(how cool is that?)

I used a paste made from flour and water.
Smeared it on the window.
After cutting the lace to the size of the window,
I pressed it on and added more goo on top
of the lace.
Presto!

And now for an even cooler part!
When I want to take it down,
I just squirt the lace with water!!

I used flour but the blog post used cornstarch.

Now we can open the window for Fresh Air.
If Tom is in the backyard, I can yell call for him 
from inside!
Light with privacy.
TaDa!

I love when problems can be solved 
so easily, like this one.
