Product Information

Next, get your sewing machine all threaded up, and sew along each side and the bottom of your shade. Leave the top seam open! These seams will determine the width of your blind, so it's worth taking a little bit of time to measure again, and perhaps even draw a line with tailor's chalk to guide you. The term "Retail" price refers to the manufacturer's or supplier's suggested retail price for an item. The initially displayed Retail price is specific to a product with the selected dimensions and default options/features. Please note that the Retail price for the selected product will be provided upon specifying its width, height, features and options. Originally, all polyester was made from oil-based raw materials which are not renewable but we are switching to only using recycled polyester. The good thing is that polyester can be recycled over and over, without negatively affecting the quality of our products. At IKEA, we demand that all recycled polyester used in IKEA products shall come from recyclers that are compliant with the Global Recycled Standard and traceability is secured to the IKEA product through requirements toward the IKEA Suppliers.

Magnetic Roman Blinds - Etsy UK

Pin your fabric and lining together with right sides facing each other. I like to use plenty of pins to keep everything secure when I'm sewing. We use the latest enhanced magnetic technology when it comes to our magnetic controls. Our magnetic controls are the easiest to raise and lower in the industry, not only does this improve the user experience, it also puts less strain on the internal mechanism which makes our system more durable, which is why we offer the longest warranty in the industry, 10 years! I would definitely suggest testing this method out on a small-ish window. The magnets work much better on the two narrower shades I made (31 inches). The wider ones (46 inches) take a bit more tweaking to get them to stay put. (I might figure out a longer term solution for this at some point, but that's definitely a project for another day!) And if you value your sanity, then please don't do what I did and launch into this project with five shades to make and a deadline looming. (Or if you do, then don't say I didn't warn you ;) cut away stabilizer or interfacing (you only need a small amount—I used leftover scraps from another project) Pin your two widths of tube tape/ribbon on to the lining in between the bottom two sets of magnets. (You won't need a dowel for the top set.) Use plenty of pins so that it doesn't slip around.

Customer Reviews

Once you have sewn three seams, you can trim the excess fabric, and snip diagonally across the two bottom corners (being careful not to cut any of the stitching.) This will give you a nice crisp finish when you eventually turn it right side out.

RINGBLOMMA Roman blind, white/green/striped, 80x160 cm RINGBLOMMA Roman blind, white/green/striped, 80x160 cm

As a rough formula, though, take three inches off the length of your blind (you want a little bit of room at the top) and divide the remainder into 5 (three pleats=5 sections.) This number is how long each pleat will end up being. Then, from the bottom of the shade, your magnets will go 1/5 of the way up, 3/5 of the way up, and 3 inches from the top. Cut your dowels a little shorter than the width of your blind and insert them into the tube tape/ribbon. If you used ribbon, hand sew the remaining open end. IKEA is committed to end the dependency on virgin fossil materials and only use renewable or recycled materials by 2030. Make a couple of pilot holes on either side of the headrail for your screws. Then attach the headrail to the shade with the velcro, and carefully drill the screws into your window frame.In the event that a product, color or product feature has been discontinued and it is no longer available we will provide a substitute product as similar as possible to the original blind or shade. You can easily raise the blind to several pre-determined heights as it has magnets in the channels. Products may be offered at the same or lower "After Coupon" prices during future promotional events starting on or after the final day of any advertised promotion. In summary: if you can sew in a vaguely straight line and you are not in a hurry, then you are probably in good shape to take this project on!
