I have 2 blind dormer windows,

the back of one is rough stone, at the back of the other breeze blocks.



I puttied in glass panes today, then took them out, is there a better background I put put in behind them?



Plywood might look good? Or a black background? Or silver or white or grey?



Has anyone any experience or ideas please?



I must put the glass in tomorrow or the next day as the scaffold's coming down soon.

Some mirror film on the inside looks OK - drives the magpies mad here! normally windows *look* black from the outside unless lit up, so perhaps painted, though paint would deteriorate in time. I'd go for plain or patterned film

Ones I have seen installed in commercial property:

the appearance of having been "glazed" with black perspex.

I think I would go for black myself.

Tinted window film?

Paint the inside of the window with black glass paint?
