      Thank you for giving my video a view and sharing your feedback. The first pet of the video is the cordless faux blinds and the second part is about the corded ones. Sorry I didn’t make it more clear. I hope you were able to figure out your project. 🙏🏼

    Great tutorial 😃 a general tip you can seal the ends of the cord by melting them with 🔥 ..this applies to most synthetic cord,rope string etc...p.s. was that the gaffer wearing the 👕 at the start 😊

    Great. Thanks. You say plats and the rest of the world calls them slats. Is it a Southern thing?

    The only problem with this method is you now have now spares

    • @TammysHomeTips
      @TammysHomeTips  11 месяцев назад +1

      With the cordless it would be challenging to replace a broken slate. I could see saving a slate or two from the corded one though. Good thought!

    • @mousetoad7040

      I’m trying to figure out a way to comp the center string at the sop so I can replace some broken slats with those extra at the bottom. I don’t have a lot of money for the expensive blinds that still sag over time. I just have the $10 made in Vietnam mini blinds that the slats break if you breath on them too hard.

      @mousetoad7040 I haven’t figured out how to do that unfortunately 😔

    Hi Does this process work for cordless Levolor vinyl mini blinds?

    • @TammysHomeTips
      @TammysHomeTips  11 месяцев назад +2

      Hey there! It should work the same 🙂

    • @janthony1342
      @janthony1342 11 месяцев назад +1

      Thanks Tammy. I ask because the Levolor instructions state “these blinds cannot be shortened due to the cordless operating system”. I guess this is a standard disclaimer.

    • @TammysHomeTips
      @TammysHomeTips  11 месяцев назад +1

      If it looks similar to the one I did I would assume that the mechanics of it are the same. In that case, it should be fine. Maybe people are accidentally cutting the center string that is under tension. Otherwise it should work.

    • @janthony1342
      @janthony1342 11 месяцев назад +2

      I just found this on the Levelor site and it appears to mimic what you show in the video.

      The instructions here are not for cordless though

  • @patriciapassalacqua3734
    @patriciapassalacqua3734 10 месяцев назад +1

    The title is for cordless. But in the comments you mention it is not for cordless. Please advise. Thank you.

    • @TammysHomeTips

      Hi Patricia! The first part of the video goes over the cordless type and the second part of the video goes over corded blinds. Hope this helps 🙂

    Why waste the slates?

    • @TammysHomeTips
      @TammysHomeTips  11 месяцев назад +1

      There aren’t many options with the cordless blinds but you could certainly recycle the corded ones. Love that thought!
