Saved my blind

I have a rollerblind in the bathroom which looked rather yucky at the bottom-speckled black and grubby. Further up, it was "as new" so today, I cut off two foot and stitched a new hem, reslotted the the weight on the bottom and now its like new again. Just saved myself the cost of a new blins and the hassle of finding one to match.:j
