Published 8 years ago

Choosing blinds for your bedroom can make a big difference to the ambience of your room. Blackout roller blinds are the “in” thing now and they are very trendy. These blinds are attractive, inviting and warm. They are constructed with tightly woven fabric that is multi-layered.

• These blinds filter almost ninety percent of the outside light passing through the window into your room. Popular types available in these styles of blinds are Roman and roller blinds.

• If you use a lining material, the fabric for the blinds looks almost untouched when it is draped. No stitching takes place on the face of the fabric, causing light to sneak in from the needle holes.

• Then, tapes, preferably black, are glued on to every stitch line to ensure that all holes are completely covered up. Lastly, blinds are sewn by machine.

• This technique does not spoil the beauty that comes with these but it also ensures proper functioning.

Measuring the window and making blackout roller blinds all according to customized options:

The blackout lining fabric is either white or cream/off white and very thick. If you want to make DIY blinds, then you can use different types of lining material. Apart from the black out roller blind and fabric, ribbon, spray adhesive, fabric glue, scissors, ruler, screws, screwdriver, small saw and mounting brackets are also needed to make the DIY blinds.

• Measure the inside of your window and cut the blinds with fabric scissors to fit your window.

• Get a good adhesive and apply it on the roller blinds and neatly paste the fabric on it. You may want to test this with a scrap piece of cloth first.

• Top end of the blinds will have the plastic cap that you need to remove and put it back on the new end.

• Make sure you leave a couple of inches of the fabric on all 3 sides. This comes handy to paste the fabric on the roller blinds on the back side.

• Flip it over after the glue has dried. Gently press on all sides.
