Thank you for the kind words - very glad you found this helpful :-)

Recently bought some timber blinds that indicated on the package that they could be shortened.  The instructions inside however, didn't make any mention of exactly how to shorten them. This video was really useful, and I have now successfully installed and shortened them. Given that I am the most un-handy person on the planet, this is a real achievement!

I just moved into an apartment and it has these kinds of blinds. I thought they could be shorten but I thought it had to be done professionally. I had no idea it was this easy. I have like 10 extra slates that sit on my window sill when the blinds are down. Time to fix that.

Thank you - great step by step instructions and clear video! My blinds came with useless "instructions".

Your instructional illustration is so useful. Well done and thank you.

Is it possible to also prepare a text version of your instruction?

Once again thank you.

I will let you know how it goes.
