A good barrier to diffuse excess UV creates a traditional tulle. In addition, cute curtains add charm and comfort to the room. The presence or fastening of the cornice is optional. We will tell you how to fix the protective material on the glass itself. It will take only unnecessary tulle, a handful of starch and a little time.
Step-by-step instructions on how to close balcony windows
- Wash the glass. Measure the internal size of the balcony frames.
- From the unnecessary tulle, cut out the rectangles corresponding to the size of the glasses. No allowances needed!
- Prepare a starch paste at the rate of 1 large spoonful of starch in 0.75 liters of water. To do this, gradually pour the starch into boiling water, continuously stirring. The specified number should be enough for 4 average sliding frames, although much depends on the nature of the canvas.
- Immerse pieces of tulle in adhesive until completely saturated.
- Distribute the moist, slightly wrung out material on the glass, starting from the center of the upper part. Press with palms, paying special attention to the edges.
- Make delicious tea and invite your friends to evaluate the result!
