White wooden blinds that can be cut to size Help!

Options
Hi,
I hope someone out there can help. I am trying to find a good deal on white wooden blinds for front windows that you can cut to size yourself. These are for a pretty standard size windows.
Looking to buy online or in shop but has to be in south east if a shop. Just want the best deal money wise as they seem to cost and can nto find many places at all. Anyone know any good places or deals?
Thank you very much for your help in advance.

    Have a look at Dunelm Mill, I bought some wooden venetian blinds a few months back and they had white wooden venetian blinds in store.
  • Hi we got ours from Ikea and cut to size ourselves... were much cheaper than anything else we could find and worked well.

    Hi,

    thanks for the responses, so the ones in IKEA can be cut to size and are these the non thin blinds?

    Thanks again.

    I've bought wooden blinds, including white ones from Ebay before & they were very easy to cut down.

    I've recently moved & have ordered more wooden blinds with a view to having them cut down to window size when the redecoration is completed.
    The bigger the bargain, the better I feel.

    I should mention that there's only one of me, don't confuse me with others of the same name.
  • I bought my wooden blinds of a company on ebay and i was really happy with them and have had compliments of everybody, very easy to cut down too :) x
    Had a few nice comping wins this year, still aiming for something big though, maybe one day eh! :p

    another vote for ikea, either use a very fine toothed saw (easy) or a very sharp stanley type knife (I just thought I'd end up with cut fingers with this option)

    cheap, easy look pretty good and far better than the stuff in the diy sheds.
