There were envelope tiles on the PAB wall for AFOL day, so trying out a new window technique :D

    Those pieces make for such a beautiful window design! I never would have thought!

    Yeah, I just grabbed a bunch to fill up 4 Privet Drive!

    Edit: from the title of this thread, I thought it was some bizarre spam-bot thing. 😀

    Those look cool used that way.  I grabbed some also but I don't know how many I actually got.

    Likely missed out, I did not hit up the AFOL day, so my guess is the LEGO store I frequent will be cleaned out if I were to go this weekend.

    Not very “windowy”, considering they are opaque :)

    I might’ve called it a “curtain technique” :)

    Just give it time, we're getting there with "transparent" pieces too ;)

    They are very dusty stained glass.

    No, no, no. Those are window envelopes.

    Based on your valuable feedback I named a similar thread on EuroBricks "Envelope Tile Window Technique" :D

    @evancelt:
    Whatever you call them, I like the windows!

    Agreed! I shared this post with my LUG and at least one member wants to try something similar now.
