Faux Stained Glass

I live in a townhome with a strict HOA in charge. We are not allowed to change our windows, but I AM allowed to change the window treatments as long as they are not offensive. This is my faux stained glass window treatment. I used a roll of thick plastic, cut into rectangles, and painted with glass paints and trimmed with stick-on leading lines. After the sections were painted, I punched holes and hung them with "s" hooks. It gives me a bit of privacy from the prying eyes of neighbors, but also allows the sun to shine in.

The plants still get enough light and the cat still loves to lay on the windowsill.

It looks pretty nice from the outside too!
