    Making the blinds so that a remote can be used is genius wish I knew how to do that

    Once I turned off the sound, good video!😁 Love that you used the canvas drop cloth. Cheap alternative to fabric store! I've dyed them for many uses, like slipcovers, tablecloths, etc. You can also stencil or handpaint them.

    Where can we find the step-by-step for the first blinds where they draw up? And then the last ones that are automatic? Would be nice to actually know how these were all done to be able to actually do them ourselves.

    So many good ideas. I've always wanted to try drop cloth curtains. Magnetic screen on sliding door would be great; however, magnets would have to be strong enough to keep outdoor cats out and big dog in!

    • @katterkat58
      @katterkat58 2 года назад +2

      They aren't that strong. They are only meant to keep the bugs from flying in. My Shih-Poo can push them open with her nose. Plus you have to match up the magnets perfectly. You could however buy stronger magnets to put in the casing or hot glue them on. But the material probably would give.

    • @ericaquint1895

      My advice is to stay away from using drop cloth as any other thing other than just to protect a floor from paint. It’s not very high quality and breaks down really easily when it’s used. If you are looking for linen curtains, Amazon has a great store called “half price curtains”. I bought 96 inch linen (or linen-like) panels for $30 a piece!

    • @carolking1502
      @carolking1502 2 года назад +2

      I've used drop cloths for many years for lots of things. Super cheap way to make changes, especially if you like frequent changes! Sew them, paint them, dye them.

    • @paulkelly1702
      @paulkelly1702 2 года назад +1

      Search Somfy. They are the motor you saw. They are remote control. Somfy calls them RTS (Radio Transmitter Somfy).
      Keep in mind, these are probably battery powered so changing the batteries would require access to the blinds.
      If tilt is all you want, make the tilt cords long enough to reach from the ground. If it is a wand tilt, that would be a long wand, probably not worth it.

    I saw a couple of great ideas but I wish a link to instructions for all these ideas were included. Like the one that looks like a curtain with rings on top. What kind of fabric was used? Materials lists would be helpful. I guess the goal with this video is to figure things out yourself.

      They are plastic with sticky stuff on the back. Its kinda like the plastic you get with the black sheet of paper in the middle that you use for college reports or sheet music.
      And also they use them with those projectors in classrooms.
