DIY - Roll Up Blinds, how-to

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

How to make easy bamboo roll up blinds.
For our outdoor kitchen in Hong kong I wanted to make blinds.
To protect us a bit from the sun and rain.
In this video I show you how to make those blinds. It’s an easy DIY project.
Also pretty cheap. One blind cost me less than 10 usd to make.
I decided to go for bamboo because I like the material and those mats are easy to roll. But of course you can also chose a different material if you like to.
It’s very satisfying when you can open and close your own hand made blinds 😉
Thank you for watching 😁

    I made a blind following your instructions for the pulley system and it works. I used a piece of paisley cotton (an old drape), some sheeting for the lining, and sticks from a bamboo blind that was falling apart. I sewed channels for the sticks. I love it! Thanks for posting your video. I knew it was possible but I needed to see where the screws and cord would go.
