Entry Door Window

One thing I noticed right away when we got our 351 was that there was no way to block prying eyes from looking through the window of the door at night. Also could not block sun if need to. I have seen different methods of curtain rods mounted inside the coach but I didn't like that look and they get in the way of entry. So I proposed an idea to DW. I picked up a glide tape wall install kit at cw. I gave DW some dimensions and asked her to pick up some fabric and sew me two curtains and two Velcro tie backs. I cut the glide rail and installed above and below the window. DW sewed the curtains, tie backs, and the glide tape.
Turned out better than I hoped. Fits perfect between the screen door and window. 😎

That looks really good. We didn't understand why every single window in the coach had a blind but that one. Both DW and I can sew, but this was much easier. Isn't it funny how the art of sewing has disappeared on younger generations. We are early GenX or what we call BabyXers and probably why we know how to use a sewing machine.
