How To Make DIY Roman Shades On A Budget

Say you have some old mini blinds that have broken pieces or you’re just bored with your plain white ones — there’s a perfect way to recycle them instead of throwing them away. In this video tutorial, you’ll learn how to make custom window treatments on a budget by turning mini blinds into pretty Roman shades, all on your own. These shades are operational like normal blinds, but much prettier. Roman shades are a type of window covering used to block out the sun.

As long as you line it up correctly it’d look good.” Check out the video below to see the process in action, and create simple and inexpensive, but stylish coasters perfect for enjoying a beverage indoors or out!
