The main point of frosting glass is to get more privacy and/ or protect inside furniture from becoming damaged by the brutal sun's rays. Although you could just get some shades to block out the rays, it doesn't allow some light inside like frosting the glass does.
There are different ways to frost glass revealed here that anyone can do themselves, but before you begin you should know the look into the multiple ways to frost glass. To create frosted glass you can either etch it into the glass or spray it with a glass frosting spray. This will give you privacy and still allow some sunlight to shine through.
Frosting spray is quick, easy, and fairly inexpensive. You can usually get this at your local hardware store. This is kind of cheap looking and since I like a classy appeal, I suggest the other way below.
Etching the glass will give you a more elegant and classy look to your windows. There are two different ways to etch the glass. One way is to use etching cream, but it may not be suitable for large glass surfaces. The other and most beautifully elegant is to use abrasives with a glass sandblasting and sandcarving systems. If you plan on doing this your self, you should know the limitations of the glass with this process because you may break your glass. Consult the Glass Etching Secrets ebook for more information if you plan on doing this yourself. It's not hard to do this yourself but without the right knowledge you can mess this up and damage your expensive glass easily.
When you frost your glass you can create patterns of etched and unetched designs that reveal a custom picture. It will give a nice decorative feel to your house with art glass windows. This is something that our website and ebook goes over called glass etching. Basically, before you etch glass, you place a stencil on your glass and frost areas in a pattern sequence.
