SCREEN DOOR
Our apartment has a balcony so now that it is Spring, we want to leave the door open.  But there are flying insects that come in so I made a screen door.  If this works out pretty good, then I may make one for the other two balcony doors.  The material is the mesh that too-toos are made out of.  I used the springy curtain rods to hold it at the top and bottom.    The bottom rod is about 12 inches off the threshold so the kitties can go under it and get out onto the deck.  I put pennies in the hem so the bottom is weighted a bit so the bugs won't go in at the bottom.

  1. Isn't that bizarre that Germans don't have screen doors? I never understood why. When we were living there, I got my first bee sting in about 20 years because there were no screens on the windows.
