I would put a simple window film on the arched window. It will give you enough privacy, light coming through, and cover the bad view. You can use a slightly frosted one, or maybe one that looks like seeded glass to match the style of your home. There are los of options. For the square window, you can use a woven wood shade or other blind. For interior mount, you need to measure using the larger outside frame and look for one that will work with the narrow dimension for installation. I think it would be best to mount a roman shade over the window at the ceiling. Then you get the most light while the shade is up and don't have to drill into the beautiful wood frame. You could also mount a rod above the window and use a simple linen drape on each side to pull closed when you want privacy.

Thank you calidesign! I never even thought of putting a shade above. That's a good idea. The side living room window will most likely remain closed all the time due to looking directly into another house but I would like the front one open in daytime. Good call on window films...I'm looking into them now and there are a ton of options! Thanks!

I like sheer panels over window for privacy. These have a pattern. Very pretty.
