Fix my blinds
Did one of your blinds or Roman shade break and finally give up the ghost? Is New blinds or a shades remodel a little lower on your priority list and you just need an interim solution?WinkIdea Then look no more, this URL has served me well of the years, product, supply, how to video's, the works! Enjoy!!!!!!!!!

PS this job of restring is not bad, you need a clean dry surface the size of a picnic table to work on and PATIENCE. You can use a match to melt the new string to the old string if it is still in place and just gently pull through, if it's not, you can gently disassemble the top of the roman shade or blind by sliding the fabric over the clips and access everything you need including installing a new brake. Two broke on the last trip and I restrung just the 1 broken string with fishing line to get me through the trip until I could order what I needed!Tongue The brake won't work due to the different line thicknesses but I cobbled a fix together so we could press on until I could fix it correctly!
