Product Information

For adaptable blinds that offer choice when it comes to letting in light, vertical and venetian styles are ideal. They’re very similar, but venetian blinds have horizontal slats, and surprise surprise, vertical blinds have vertical slats. For those looking for a more minimalist approach, our roller blind and roman blind designs incorporate simple style and function. Alternatively, if you already have a set of curtains, then we also have a range of discreet options that can be used alongside your current fittings. Pin your fabric and lining together with right sides facing each other. I like to use plenty of pins to keep everything secure when I'm sewing. If you've made it this far, then you're doing GREAT! The rest of the process is a little fiddly, but it won't make your head hurt quite as much.

Alright. So now you want to turn your blind the right side out, and give it a good iron around the seams. Now cut down your weight bar (I used a piece of pine casing) slightly smaller than the width of your blind, and insert it into the bottom of the shade. As a rough formula, though, take three inches off the length of your blind (you want a little bit of room at the top) and divide the remainder into 5 (three pleats=5 sections.) This number is how long each pleat will end up being. Then, from the bottom of the shade, your magnets will go 1/5 of the way up, 3/5 of the way up, and 3 inches from the top.Make a couple of pilot holes on either side of the headrail for your screws. Then attach the headrail to the shade with the velcro, and carefully drill the screws into your window frame.

If there are multiple blinds/shades in the same room, only the defective product will be replaced/repaired. Next, grab your roman shade tube tape or your wide ribbon, and cut two pieces to fit the width in between the magnets, with a little extra for hemming. If you are using tube tape, you can hem both ends as there are slits to insert the dowel. If you are using ribbon, fold and iron it in half width ways and hem one end, leaving an end open so that you can insert the dowel.

Cut your dowels a little shorter than the width of your blind and insert them into the tube tape/ribbon. If you used ribbon, hand sew the remaining open end. In summary: if you can sew in a vaguely straight line and you are not in a hurry, then you are probably in good shape to take this project on! This is very important and a common mistake made by consumers when it comes to choosing their integral blinds. It’s well known that across the industry there are many low quality systems that are difficult to raise and lower, the controls are stiff and it really does provide a poor user experience.
