Need some DIY Front Door Privacy Ideas? If your front door could use a little more privacy, you need to try this simple trick!

Nothing can update a house like a pretty new front door!  We recently installed a new front door on our home, but there was one little problem… no more privacy! 😉

Yep ~ the 6 pretty little windows at the top weren’t frosted or tinted, and you could see right in to our t.v. and living room.

I wanted to find a way to keep all of that light coming in through the windows, but also make it private… oh, and I didn’t really want to spend any money either!  Hmm…

So one day it popped into my head to try some different types of scrapbook paper!  The vellum didn’t seem to let in enough light, but then at JoAnn’s I spotted these pretty pages {with a little bit of sparkle}.

They were in the scrapbooking section, and almost like a sheer fabric type of paper.  I fell in love, and knew they would do the trick!

Back at home I simply cut them down to fit the size of the squares, and affixed using itsy bitsy pieces of double sided tape.  {glue dots should work, too!}

I paid around $1.00 for each page, so it was about a $6.00 project.  {yep ~ I like that price!}

And… there it is!  Our new ‘private’ front door… that still lets in light!  Easy-peasy!
