House proud mothers and house-husbands the world over take pride in their nice, clean, floor to ceiling, sliding patio/balcony door. That is until little Anna Hjelm walks into it and has to go home with a pack of peas strapped round her swollen head.
Most people get round this problem by putting large stickers on their window. This blocks light and results in a scum mark when you take the sticker off, and will reak havoc with your nice clean home.
The solution?
Stained glass patio doors. Allow a rainbow of coloured light to warm your home. Gaze upon a scene of your choosing as the morning sun streams in. Marvel at the new found privacy that you could gain from stained glass patio doors.
