(no subject)

ok,
so my apartment's kitchen windows don't have any sort of blinds
and there's really no way i can think of to install them
now, this normally wouldn't be a problem but since i live by myself i frequently find myself wandering into the kitchen at 5 am to get a drink of water in my underwear.
i don't think that the people in the nursing home across from me would be too hapy if they woke up to that.

so.. i was watching some tv show about house restorations tonight
and saw a whole house with lace that was kind of attached to their windows, not as a curtain, but actually attached to the glass.
i was wondering if any of you had any idea about how i could make this happen?
i can't do anything permanent, becuase i'm renting and my landlord dosent like change.
so i need something that will stick it on, but be removable later on.

i remember hearing something about using egg whites, but i'de rather not do this since i'm worried it might get old and make the whole place smell..
would liquid starch work? or is it something about putting it onto porous surfaces like drywall that makes that happen?

any help would be great.
thanks.
