Sheers (Net Curtains)
One of the easiest ways of preventing people from looking into your home is by hanging blinds and curtains. However, blinds can block out natural light from your home, and if you use your curtains purely for decoration, you might be stuck for a solution. Net curtains (sheers) are a wonderful, cheap and easy way of creating instant privacy in your home. Not only do they allow lots of natural light into your home, but they also hinder potential burglars from seeing your belongings.

Frosted Windows
Some people don’t like blinds or curtains, and that’s completely understandable. If that's the case for you, frosted windows are a great solution to your privacy problem. While they’re expensive to have installed, you can buy frosted window film to apply to your windows. It's cheap to buy, easy to install, and won't damage your windows should you come to sell your home or move to another rented property. There are a range of styles available, and you won’t have to compromise any natural light in your home. All you have to do is peel back, apply and enjoy your new found privacy!
Fencing
During the warmer months it’s natural to want to spend as much time in your yard or on your patio or deck as possible. Whether that’s entertaining guests, doing some gardening, or simply soaking up some sun, you might not want to be on display for passers by or neighbors. Fencing is a great way to create privacy in your yard, as it can be as tall or opaque as you like.

These are great ideas! My neighbors always have their eyes on me, and it's very frustrating and difficult to feel like you're trapped in your home because you have no privacy outside and a fence is not an option but last year I bought some trellises that extend from the side of my house, and I planted some vines to climb them, and now I'm working on fixing up the area to turn it into a seating area, but just the flowers filling in the trellises has been a game changer, and I can now walking into my backyard and be at peace, and have even gone out to take some outfit photos, which was one of my goals.
