Fix Broken Faux Wood Blind Slat

- Replacing the irritating broken slat on your blind is fairly easy to do if you have the time. If saving money does not motivate you then I suggest you do it due to privacy issues. It is admittedly an eyesore looking everyday at that one broken blind/slat isn't it?
Like, if your lease is up and trying to repair things around
🤣🤣
DYING THIS IS ME
Yup!! My puppy chewed on the bottom of mine 🤦♀️
Yup 😂
@@KailuaChick OMG!!! Mine too, just happened today and I’m moving out in a week! We were so close of leaving clean. He destroy the first 7 😭
I have used clear gorilla glue twice to repair a broken slat, while the perfectly good slats at the bottom were laughing at me. I will be doing this first thing in the morning. Thank you so much for this enlightenment!
Me too! For years!
This video saved my marriage 😂😂😂🔥🔥🔥😍👍🏻🙏🏻
Mine too!
😂🤣 facts!
🤣😭🤣😭🤣
It saved me from being castrated by my beautiful partner.
Saved me from getting kicked out
Broooo thank you my landlord charges like $175 for broken blinds 🥵 this worked perfectly!!! I owe you one
One of the best demos I've ever seen on RUclips! Very clear and detailed! Thank you so much.
"...making you wonder if you can do the job or not..." Loved that line because yes, I wondered! But thanks to your instructions, I got the job done, Thanks!
I was very hesitant to fix my blinds (dog ate several slats).... but this video is SUPER! Will have no problem now! THANK YOU SAM!! GOOD JOB!!!
Jim Pierce that’s exactly what happened to mine! So thankful for this video!!
This was so helpful during a stressful time! I owe you a burger and beverage of your choice! Thank you for being there when I needed help, I really appreciate it. ❤
This video was exactly what I was looking for! Super easy and detailed. Thank you!
You don’t understand how much you’ve just saved my life... thank you😭
I was going to Home Depot to get brand new Blind but after watching this video, I will fix the slat. Thank you!
So appreciated this! Dog chewed our blinds the day we moved into the house & I’ve put it off for four years after nesting up the damaged slats. Thought it was going to be a huge job but thanks to your video, done in half an hour 👍🏻 Great job
Thanks for this. You’re a very good and patient instructor.
Was not aware there were extra slats within the blind. I was thinking about this idea last night and you reinforced it can be done. Thank you. Calming approach was fantastic. Will fix my blinds today.
This is fantastic. I had resigned myself to buying THREE new blinds (to make sure they matched, large window with 3 sections), all for 2 broken slats..and then I found this. Done! Thank you so much for making this video.
The plastic plug broke right off, but I was able to thread the lines through the holes without removing the plugs. It wasn't easy but it got done. Now I have my privacy back. Thank you!
Thank you! I was able to replace the broken slats! It was easy, your step by step, detailed instructions were FANTASTIC! THANK YOU!!!
You are a rock star! Thank you for this video. I appreciate how detailed and efficient you are. Who knew it was that easy! You truly brought good to the world! Well done!
Thanks!!! Ive needed this for around 6 months, holding off on buying nee blinds. Glad I did, thanks for saving me so much money!
I was going to buy all new blinds to replace the slat my dog broke 8 months ago but never got around to it and realized in the middle of the night it could probably be fixed. First video that came up and it's the exact kind I have. Thank you SO MUCH for making this. Saved me $50+!
THANK YOU!!!! You just saved me a BUNCH of money. Showed that by have a bit of patience I can fix something more easily than I had anticipated. Your directions were very detailed. You explained it so well that it made the process seem rather simple and that it didn't required any special tools.
OMG.... thank you for making this diy fix. You're suggestions on not getting the pull cords tangled up was spot on. I did not leave my blinds hanging up to work on them, I probably should have. This video helped me save 5 blinds
This was a great help. Thank you. I figured there as a way to fix my blinds but thought I’d have to remove all blinds below and put them all back again. What a relief. Your clear and slow instructions are much appreciated.
Thank you for sharing! You saved me a few hundred bucks. I had no idea the repair was so simple.
Thanks for sharing! This saved my tenants $40. I thought I would have to replace the entire blind.
You are a nice landlord! Some landlords wouldnt try to help their tenants!
You saved my life!! Broke two of those at my in-law's place. It was a super quick fix!! Thanks a lot!!
Thank you for the step by step process as well as being aware of common mistakes. I found this video quite helpful.
I had two broken slats on on blinds at a rental that I own, you gave me the confidence to tackle the repair myself.😀
Thank you for the tutorial! Step by step was great. Saved us money and kept us busy during this time of social distancing.
This video was Heaven sent!!! If you have kids you know my pain- 4 and a 9 year old; their blinds are torn and I didn’t want to replace them just yet! Thank you very much
I did this, its very easy to do if you follow these steps, my blinds look new, thank you so much
Thanks! 😊 I had two broken slats, and I checked like you showed. I actually have 4 extra slats on the bottom. It was a little tedious, but it's really simple, like you said. We have custom blinds and they were ridiculously expensive. The company that installed them wanted a flat fee of $100 dollars to fix them. Your video saved me! Thanks again 😊
This video is excellent!! To the point, practical - you answered many questions going through my mind, I tried and it worked, thank you.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!!! Worked like a charm and was super easy. I was really going to buy a whole new set, but you just saved me money!!
Your explanation and demonstration was excellent. I had to blinds that were broken and have looked at 2 previous videos that were okay, but not exactly like yours. You are a GREAT TEACHER. I know that I can do this now. Thank you for your help.
I’ve wasted SO MUCH $$$. Thank you for this clear and simple video!
Thanks Sam! Saved me a lot of heartache. Didn't know blinds come with extra slats.
Thanks for the video! It is very helpful and nicely explained. It helped me to fix my door blinds and saved money!
Thank you so much for this video. I fixed my broken blind in less than 15 minutes!!
Best video I have seen on replacing a blind slat. Thanks!
Truly appreciative- Thanks a million 😊
This tutorial saved me at least $150! I had to repair two windows...
Thanks for sharing this. I was to replace a broken slat with your help.
Oh, thank you so much. You did not leave anything out of this video. You explained this is such great detail I am very happy you were so patient. Your the greatest......
umm, just subscribed, completely mind blown. to be honest, this is far easier than I thought and easier than replacing them. I just cant believe it. AMAZING
Thank you so much!! I'm moving out of my kids grandparents house and he broke 5 pieces of our blinds at the bottom (when he was a baby) and I didn't wanna leave them messed up but also didn't wanna spend a ton to buy more. But I can definitely do this😊 thank you!!
Nice one, Sam! Thank you for taking the time to put this video together. 💪👍
omg you r a genius !! spent the morning shouting at hubby for breaking blind bang in the middle ... so informative doing right now.. as hubby has now fallen asleep 🤷🏽♀️
Thanks!!! Explained very well with good instructions, awesome learning video
Thank you! Your clear explaination is appreciated. My bottom rail buttons were missing - disintegrated with sun and age - so I used some REAL BUTTONS to thread the support string through. Works perfectly!!
And, the kindness of People across the globe offering their videos always causes me intense gratitude.
I’m in love! Thank you so much - my foster husky did a total number on my custom made blinds.
Nice and simple instructions..THANK YOU!
Yes, this video was very helpful. I recently broke one of the slats and have been working on the blind on the floor, but while watching the video, I think it would be easier to work on it while the blind is hanging.
Great video, simple and easily explained. Thank you.

Thank you for this how-to!!! My dog has vent and scratched about 6 slats that i need to replace. Is there any way id be able to buy a few individual slats since i eed more than the 2 extra atghe bottom?
Thank you, Sam! Your video saved me ❤
Great video! Thanks for posting!

Very well explained, thanks from a Handy Man!
Thanks for this video. This saved us money.
Wow, thanks Man. This is so easy to follow and you just saved me few $s. No longer mad at my baby for breaking the slat
It's amazing how many people will just toss the old blind because of a few broken slats and spend $100 on a new blind. I learned the same lesson when my son was going through that stage... they just love to look out the window to experience the outside world 😅
Let's just say I got pretty fast at remove the old slats and replacing them 👍
The thread or whatever you call it on my blinds cane off on the top and so they are hanging side ways half way down. How to fix the top?
Question: is it possible to fix the thread that broke from the very top and now the blind looks bent?
Getting ready to sell our house, the really helped. Feel much better about my son's bedroom window now.
