Cut to size blackout blinds

  • We've also used web-blinds.com and it saved a lot of hassle and fiddling around. You just measure the window, and they make it the right size for you.

    We've got a fairly wide window and it only cost £50 ish. They're owned by hilary's blinds and there is often a discount voucher kicking around in the Bounty packs or on the Bounty website.

    We have the argos ones and they are fine, have lasted really well so far. Although it took some time to measure, draw a line, cut, saw the cardboard tube etc to cut it to size, they do a good job and have stopped DD waking in the early hours through the summer!
