Nature Panel Window Blind

Block a less-than-attractive view while still allowing light to filter in with a blind made of transparent resin panels.

resin panels
medium- and light-gauge copper wire
black-coated copper art wire
needle-nose pliers with wire cutter
bundles of twigs
skeleton leaves (available at craft stores)
curtain rod holders

Steps:

1. Measure window area to be covered (half or whole window).

2. Arrange resin panels face down on a flat surface with about 1/4 inch between each on all sides.

3. Cut seven-inch pieces of copper wire and attach them to the top holes of each top panel. Cut smaller pieces of wire and twist them tightly after threading them through the holes to secure all the panels together.

4. For the rod, arrange the twigs as desired and secure with pieces of black-coated copper wire about every four inches. Wrap light-gauge copper wire around the skeleton leaf stems and attach to each end of twig rod.

5. Place twig rod along top edge of resin panels and wire them together. Hang on curtain rod holders over window.
