Last weekend our quickie home-decorating project was to put up shades in our kitchen window, which happens to face the kitchen window of the house next door. (As we had no covering there at all when we moved in, we’ve had to take care not to put on a show for the neighbors; anyway, their vertical blinds seem to be closed most of the time.) Until we come up with some cool retro window treatments, we decided to put up temporary paper shades made by Redi Shade, which we found at Home Depot. After trimming the shades to the correct width, we secured the top adhesive flap to the window frame, and then the pleats just fall into place. They can be opened to any height using the clips provided. Easy peasy!
In this photo, you can also see our shiny refrigerator, and a set of yellow canisters that Thom won on eBay and received today in the mail. The kitchen is coming together!

*heh* “easy peasy” … I use that saying all the time.
John (aka the cheating cheater) had those in his house. Nice, but they don’t age well. And after awhile the adhesive is a pain to remove.
