Adding curtains made their balcony cozy and private—and they did all the work themselves.
Using extendable curtain rods from Amazon and some white drapes, they quickly transformed their outdoor space.
Paige and Broch (@paigeandbroch) share lifestyle, travel and DIY content for their 242,000 Tick tock Trailer.
In a current clipthey demonstrated their DIY solution to gain privacy on the balcony of their apartment that others can see Houses.
The video began with Paige explaining that she got a call from Broch saying to clear everything off the balcony because he had “an idea for it.”
Then Broch appeared with a ladder and tools.
He said: “I ordered retractable curtain rods from Amazon so we can hang curtains the full length of our balcony to make it more private.”
Broch surprised Paige with the balcony makeover and she was thrilled with the unexpected makeover.
Broch balanced on the ladder and attached the curtain rods to the four corners of the balcony.
The extendable rods snapped easily into place and he hung white curtains on the rods.
Paige stretched long pieces of white fabric across each of the poles and draped the curtains on the ceiling to give the room a tent-like feel.
She said, “I love it!” while Broch said the room looked “beautiful.”
Broch continued, “You know you always ask to build a pillow fort to watch movies in? Watch this now!”
Paige was thrilled with the transformation. She said, “Wow! baby i love it! It is so beautiful!”
The floor-length white curtains ensured the couple had privacy on their balcony and the neighbors couldn’t see inside.
The remodel was completed with the addition of an outdoor couch and two footstools, some plants and some candles.
The lightweight fabric protected the balcony from the sun and prying eyes while still allowing air to circulate and light to enter.
Viewers loved Broch’s idea and many commented on the video.
One person wrote: “I just love this, the privacy alone is worth it!”
