Fixing Blinds In a Conservatory ?

Hi ,
I have done a search but carn't find a thread on this.

Has anyone got any experience of fitting blinds in a conservatory?

I have got my own fabric and intend to make Roman Blinds. I have searched the Internet for fixings but can only find Blinds to buy with the fixings.

Would be really grateful for any advice

Thank You

Sally

    Was looking at these yesterday, if you google 'roman blind kit' you should find others as well. (not sure if its suitable for a conservatory tho)

    Make your own 'kit' from wooden dowls,(for the folds) 2x1 hardwood strips (top and bottom rails) and screw in eyelets. Good quality nylon cord.
