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. 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 ;) Then machine stitch along the top of the tube tape/ribbon all the way across your shade. Smooth the fabric as you go, and take your time!

It’s well known that across the industry there are many low quality systems that are difficult to raise and lower, the controls are stiff and it really does provide a poor user experience.

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. 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. At this point I wanted to give my Mum a special mention, as she came up with the genius idea of using magnets to make these cordless. She also gave me a lot of advice and help along the way via FaceTime—thanks Mum! Now that you have those calculations worked out, and while your shade is still turned inside out, you can add pins on either edge of your lining to mark where your magnets are going to be sewn in.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! The downside to virgin polyester is that it is made from oil, coal or natural gas. This means that when we use virgin polyester, we are exhausting the planet’s natural resources. Our response to this, is to replace all virgin polyester with recycled in our products. Recycled polyester makes us less dependent on oil. The amount we convert, is equal to the amount of virgin fossil fuel we eliminate from our polyester raw material (this excludes potential dyeing and other post recycled polyester production treatments). If there are multiple blinds/shades in the same room, only the defective product will be replaced/repaired. 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.

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. cut away stabilizer or interfacing (you only need a small amount—I used leftover scraps from another project) 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. 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.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. 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. Next, grab your roman shade tube tape or your wide ribbon, and cut two pieces to fit the width in between the magnets, with a little extra for hemming. If you are using tube tape, you can hem both ends as there are slits to insert the dowel. If you are using ribbon, fold and iron it in half width ways and hem one end, leaving an end open so that you can insert the dowel. 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. You can easily raise the blind to several pre-determined heights as it has magnets in the channels.

This plan does not cover measuring errors. Following the easy measuring instructions will ensure a proper fit. OUTSIDE MOUNT: Enter the size you wish the blinds to be made. See individual descriptions for any deductions or additions. 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! 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. We are accelerating this movement for polyester in our range and aim to replace all virgin polyester in our textile products with recycled. In 2020, IKEA replaced 79% of the virgin polyester used in IKEA textile products with recycled polyester. In volume, this means we converted 130,000 metric tonnes of recycled polyester, and saved 200,000 tonnes of virign polyester.Storage & organisation Furniture Textiles Decoration Outdoor products Kitchen & appliances Lighting Smart home Beds & mattresses Baby & children Kitchenware & tableware Bathroom products Rugs, mats & flooring Laundry & cleaning Home electronics Pots & plants Home improvement Food & beverages Christmas Rooms 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. Please note that the Retail price may not reflect the prevailing market price or the regular retail price. It is common for products to be sold at lower prices than the Retail price due to various factors, including promotional events, discounts, market competition, or supplier agreements. Polyester is a durable, wrinkle-resistant and easy-care material that is ideal for many home furnishing products like rugs, pillows, quilts and cushions. If you've made it this far, then you're doing GREAT! The rest of the process is a little fiddly, but it won't make your head hurt quite as much.

For adaptable blinds that offer choice when it comes to letting in light, vertical and venetian styles are ideal. They’re very similar, but venetian blinds have horizontal slats, and surprise surprise, vertical blinds have vertical slats. For those looking for a more minimalist approach, our roller blind and roman blind designs incorporate simple style and function. Alternatively, if you already have a set of curtains, then we also have a range of discreet options that can be used alongside your current fittings. IKEA is committed to end the dependency on virgin fossil materials and only use renewable or recycled materials by 2030. Alright. So now you want to turn your blind the right side out, and give it a good iron around the seams. Now cut down your weight bar (I used a piece of pine casing) slightly smaller than the width of your blind, and insert it into the bottom of the shade.

KEEP IN TOUCH

When we make products from recycled polyester, we give a second life to material that is not biodegradable and reduce the amount that may otherwise end up in landfill or the ocean. Instead, PET and other sources of polyester are used to make textiles, storage boxes, kitchen fronts and even lamps. Now, there's one more detail at this stage that's very important, and then it gets easier from here! Promise! Magnets have two sides to them, and you need to make sure you have the right side facing the right way, so that they will attract rather than repel. From the top, your first set of magnets will be face up, and the other two sets will be face down. Again, it's hard to explain in writing, but if you do it this way, the magnets will be attracting each other when folded up:
