So, as much as I love my house, I am beginning to wish my landlord wasn't an architect. Several years ago, he decided to gut the house and re-do it with cool things like skylights upstairs, tile walls downstairs and in the stairwell, marble walls in the dining room, and slate floors.

Sounds pretty cool, right?

Well, this morning I found out why I hate skylights. I jump out of the shower this morning and am standing there combing my hair nekkid (no dirty thoughts, guys), and I hear someone cough. I look up out of my skylight and realize my next door neighbor is sitting on his third floor deck, which just so happens to have a nice view into my bathroom.

I think it's time for me to invest in curtains.

Why do you think he was sitting out there?

Is the guy upstairs your landlord?

NP had a skylight in her other house and got those tension rods and made a basic, rectangular curtain to hang in hers.

I just hope he wasn't sitting out there when my bf got out of the shower.

No, just my next door neighbor--his house just happens to be taller than ours. He probably watched my landlord put the skylights in and then decided to build onto his house so that he could

bummer!!!!!!!!!!! Now to figure out how and what material to use to not completely block the light (which would defeat the purpose of the skylight) but give you your privacy back..... good luck!!!!!!!!

I have some of the old plan roll up shades in mine that have a strng attached so you can pull them up and down easily. Mostly just use them for blocking the sun so i can sleep in....

Well, two of the skylights in my master bedroom have blinds in them...maybe I could install something similar in the bathroom.

He's probably checking out your bikini wax. It's quite a conversation piece around these parts.

Just think of the show(s) he's seen since you and your b/f moved in. Remember the time you invited me over for dinner?

City -- another option would be to get one of those "redi-shades" from Lowes/Home Depot. They are usually made for bigger windows, but since it's paper, you could cut it down to the size you need. It has some sort of sticky stuff on one end to attach to the top of a window, so you could just put something similiar on the other end to hang the bottom end to the other end of the skylight. They're white, so you'd still have the benefit of the light without the intrusion of the perv.

Mirrored window tint like in a car:shrug:SoWhat I think you can buy it in an auto parts store. Of course the exabitionist in you is prolly lovin it

 

[CityGrl]

Hmmm...all very good ideas. How about a big sign outside the skylight that says "YOU PERV! Go see your wife!"
