Roller Blinds Made From My Own Fabric

Numpie

Does anybody know of any companies, in the Manchester area , which could make me a roller blind from my own fabric (I want it to match my curtains.) Despite trawling the internet I'm struggling to find anycompanies which do this.
Any help gratefully received.

Why don't you try making your own. I got a kit from Dunelm and then some stiffening solution. It was really easy.

Yeah, I've seen those kits, but I'm really rubbish at doing stuff like that and I'm afraid that I'll just end up ruining the fabric, which was quite expensive.

Hi Drusilla, hope you don't mind me hijacking this thread. Can you tell me a bit more about this kit from Dunelm and how you can make blinds with your own material please?

Many thanks,

A quick Google bought up lots of kits such as this one.

Dont even try with any diy kits, it needs to be done my experts to stiffen the fabric to an acceptable level for the roller blind to work. PM me I have a company that does this professionally.
