This is my favorite tutorial. I have seen so many ways to make a roman shade but this technique gives you a great roman shade look without the complicated process of making them! I can't wait to make these for my large kitchen window and the french doors that are on the same wall as the large kitchen window! I'll post pics once I have them finished!

Really good, easy to follow demo. Thanks. Love the fabric. Can't wait to move home to dig out my sewing machine and make something! Have to settle for watching vids on KZread for a little while longer.

What a brilliant tutorial. Exceptionally easy to do, thank you

This is a really good tutorial. You kept it simple. I can hardly wait to get started on the shades for my new kitchen. Thanks.

Thanks so much!!! Nicely done. Exactly what I needed to complete my kitchen window. Love love!!!

loved this method. i didn't want rods as its only a tiny window !!! this really did the job . thankyou xx

Thank you very much. Well explained and easy to do

Great easy to understand video!

Thank you so much. This was very informative

I love these and plan to make them for my home.

Love this, thank you! ❤

Thank u! Can't wait to try this!

You is fantastic! I love it!!!!!!

Kamila: If by a more pleated look you mean you want more (narrower) pleats on your shade, just space the vertical rings more closely together than the 6" recommended here. You would not want to go closer than 4" between each ring, however. Hope that helps! Feel free to reply if we misunderstood the question.

I like that 💐💐💐 I will try it, Thank you !

professional presentation, good one

Great tutorial

Thank you for the instructions! If I wanted a more pleated look how do I space out my vertical rings?

Susan, Thank you.

Well done love this idea

You could even use Roman shade cord and tie them together.

Could i just place rings on the outside for a relaxed roman shade?

What is the advantage of using the hook strip vs. the pocket? Wish I could see both completed so I can see how one looks vs. the other.

Love this video & tutorial! I'm making stationary roman shade for a 60 inch window. Do I need dowels or a weighted bar? Most of the instructions I find are for very small windows and the wider window is not addressed. Thanks!

Thank you for the video. Do i have to line the fabric?

How far apart vertically do you put each row of plastic rings?

I would love a link to the plastic rings and split rings that you used...I plan on making these for my kitchen window! THANKS!

Could snap's be used to create the folds instead of rings?

How many in between rings for the pleate

Where can I get the split rings?

Thank you very much

Cathy: The split rings are available on the RowleyDIY website: type "ring" in the search field and the split rings are on the second page of the search. Best of luck with your project.

Amazon has split rings sold in smaller quantities

Thank you!

I enjoyed your tutorial very easy to follow. Where can I purchase the hook strip

Where to get split rings please ,thanks so much

IF YOU CAN'T FIND SPLIT RINGS...Just buy a few extra solid rings and cut them with a pair of snips. They will do the exact same thing.

Thank you!! The split rings I've bought are practically impossible to use. They're as tightly wound as key rings. I'll try your tip.

In England, the only split rings available are metal and quite difficult to work with.

GREAT tutorial - well presented and it makes it look doable for a novice....it's NOT rocket science !!

I can find the hook strips attached to the plastic, where to buy please? Do Amazon do them.

What size are the sewn on rings?

what kind of lining, please?

This is great… but I can’t find the plastic hook strip anywhere. Is it called something else in the UK?

would love to have written instructions

can i make this with a rod pocket

Always intended to make one just never did, but this video is good

what are the dimensions of your fabric?

Thank you for great video! Where can I find plastic hook strip with holes?

Did you ever get a reply to this question?

Great Video - how far apart vertically are the rings? 6" from the bottom, then how far to the next row of rings?

Could this technique be used for a relaxed Roman shade look?

+Brenda Parker Absolutely. Instead of cutting a rectangle, cut a trapezoid (wider at the bottom than the top) to get a swag effect on the final shade.

Wow!!!!!😳😃😃

How far apart are the rings vertically?

Hello Karen. Thanks for watching the video! For this style shade valance, you may space the vertical rows of rings a pleasing distance for the size of folds you would like your shade to have. Typically this may be between 6-10". The further the distance between the vertical rows, the larger the folds of fabric.

What's the diameter of the split rings? Thanks

@rowleycompany1

Hi Jenny - the inside diameter of the split rings in the video is 9/16". The outside diameter is 7/8". Please let us know if you have any other questions regarding this project. Thanks!

Please let us know how it turns out, and feel free to post a photo on our Facebook page. We'd love to see what you make.

Searched high and low can't find split rings so where please

Just cut the solid rings with snips. They work just the same as "split rings" because you "split" them.

A list of the materials needed would have been helpful but great tutorial.

If I want Roman Shade..... I go to Rome and stand in the Shade! 😂😂😂😂😂

This is great… but I can’t find the plastic hook strip anywhere. Is it called something else in the UK?
