I am 20 year old girl and live in a flat on second floor. My bathroom window is toword the street and covered with curtain. But if you try little harder , you can poke inside, but for that you will need ladder and there is big risk of being caught. Most importantly, it is not ovious. I never dreamed that some body will look. To make long story short, two neiougbourhood guys, on the excuse of doing maintaiance, did poke through when i was taking shower at night. I think that they saw me naked, but i am not 100% sure, but 99%. I can see the smile on their face and the fact i know that they were doing some maintainance work at the same time. What should i do? I am really ashamed
i can't complain, no proof. complaining is not option
Do not carry for what has happened because you are not sure but be careful and inform the society manager that as and when there is any maintenance the flat owners should be informed (not to be mentioned -so that this type of mistakes are not repeated). Are you staying alone in the flat or with your parents. If with parents then instead of your complaining, it should be your parents.

How to keep my apartmnt warm without running up the electric bill?
my partment is drafty and doesnt seem to be well insulated, i have put up bedsheets as curtains, because i cant afford curtains right now, i put old clothes in the cracks of my windows and patio glass sliding doors, to help keep the air out, is there something i could be doing better like would using plastic bags block the draft better? i dont really have anymore money to spend right now, i wanted a space heater, but all the ones i could afford were sold out.
you can get some caulk and fill all cracks around doors and windows where you feel a draft. if you light a match and hold it near the suspected draft, you will actually see the flame flicker.
there are plastic window sheets that are sold at the hardware store and are duct taped inside the window ans that keeps out drafts. both these solutions are very low cost. also, theres weather strips for doors. these are narrow self sticking felt strips you fit around the door to keep the cold out

As new perspective become universal, the popularity of window treatments have been very popular. The danger when conveying any kind of window treatments is in choosing the design so that it will not appear theatrical. Of course who would want their home to look like a theatre or a stage? In the case of window treatments, your taste is not oblivious.
I believe that in every individual there lies a unique creativity. Whether you want to have formal window treatments, cozy, elegant or just casual window treatments would certainly add a flush making it stylish naturally.
Before you can do the right window treatments, you must be inspired to do it. Inspiration comes in many ways like choosing your favourite colour. I love blue and anything blue makes me feel alive and inspired. There is also one thing that really inspired me a lot; this is about the movie I watched, a classic movie and the house was beautiful and the window was very elegant. I thought I have to imitate the design on our window too, but when I started our window treatments things weren't the way I expected.
Window treatments depend on the style of the window and your house. Is your house big? Are the windows wide or slim? These are factors that you should consider before you finalized window treatments. And also make sure that you will be comfortable with the outcome.
If you are thinking of designing a pattern or choosing a color you can use drapes in your throughout the windows, this will give a very relaxing feeling. The colors should depend on the area you live and color of your house. Like for example if your house is located in woody land or if the outside of your window is woody you can use blue. This color will accentuate well your windows treatments.
There are other decorating window treatments that include combining curtains. If you want to do it yourself, a pair of window blinds and curtains of your choice is also beautiful. But today a more innovative technology in window treatments is more inspiring.
There is also one alternative to window treatments that often forgotten and that is the use of wood shade. A bamboo shade is a good interior design. I have visited a chapel in Austin. The place was so simple but one thing that attracts my attention is their bamboo blinds. If you see it afar the bamboo may look like a classical venetian blind but if you come forward and feel it, it was amazing because they were made of bamboo.
Wood shades compliment any decoration scheme especially in window treatments while they invite fresh air to your house they are also very inexpensive. Finally all alternative window treatments should be layered, they new designs in interior decorations. The shade should be well match with the color of your house for that excellent color combination. A breezy atmosphere is also one thing that you should consider from exterior to the interior.

Whether you live in the warm southern climate or the cold northern climate, insulated window treatments will save you money. In fact, the only place I have ever lived where insulation was not important was Hawaii. That was the only place where I never closed the windows. So unless you live in Hawaii, then the right insulation can save you a bundle.
Don't Let a Draft Cost You Money The biggest waste of money is the drafty window. You can tell if your windows are drafty by using the candle trick. Simply light a candle and slowly move it around the window. If the flame flickers or worse goes out, then you have a draft. When you find a draft, it is important to seal it immediately.
Insulate the Window You insulate your attic. You insulate your walls. However, the window is left untreated. Does this make sense? Of course it doesn't. Yet, in the past, you were left with only a few options.
First, you could install a separate window. Some people install storm windows on the outside of a regular window to get the benefit of both storm protection and insulation. However, this makes opening the windows a pain, not to mention the cleaning nightmare!
Your next option was the double pane window. This was a better option and it was more attractive. The double pane gave you a bit more insulation but still allowed the sun to heat up surrounding areas.
Last, you had the drapes. If you wanted warmth, then you got big, dusty, tacky curtains to cover the window. If you wanted cool air then you installed thin, easily torn, easily damaged sheers. While these worked great, they were not exactly the easiest to clean and handle.
Now, you have the option of insulated shades. Cellular shades work wonders in insulation. In fact, some are energy efficient enough to qualify for a Federal Tax Credit. This is not something you ever found with bulky curtains.
Insulated Shades an Affordable Option While you may think that you could not afford quality shades, you just might be surprised. Translucent single cell shades only cost about $25 and that is for a custom fit. The blackout single cell shades (for ultimate light filtering) are only $10 more. When you consider how much you can actually save (studies show insulated shades reduce energy bills by 25%), installing cellular blinds is quite affordable.
The cellular shade is only one type of insulated window treatment. You can find a wide variety of energy efficient blinds and shades in an assortment of styles. When it comes to quality window treatments, your options are almost limitless.
