stretch through the center. So you’ll have three
mounts.

through the paper. It will serve as the bottom bar.
Rolled blinds from wallpaper with their own hands
Another fairly common type of wallpaper blinds
are the so-called roller blinds. Conditionally they can be divided.
into several subspecies, but the principle of production remains the same.
The difference is only in the number of tapes fixing the height

For making you need: a roll of wallpaper, a roll of satin
tapes, scissors, glue, curtains, metal tube on which
wallpaper will be wound.
First you need to install the curtain to its rightful place,
after measuring the distance between the curtain and the window sill. Unwind
roll the wallpaper and measure the distance you got by measuring
the distance from the curtain to the window sill, adding ten more to it
centimeters (this is needed on connections with the details). Further boldly
cut the resulting piece of wallpaper from the roll.
For more comfortable use of your future blinds
It is recommended to use a metal tube, although you can
do without it. Take the tube, promegite it with glue and stick
to her wallpaper the edge, which will be at the bottom of the roll
jalousie.
While the glue dries, take a satin ribbon and attach it
in the middle of curtains. Then lower to the window sill and cut.
Do this for the second tape. You should be able to
two tapes attached in the center of the curtain up to the window sill.
Once the tube is dry, the other end of the wallpaper is necessary
stick to the curtain. This is not so easy, but there is one
cunning. We will use tapes that are already up to this point
attached to the curtain (these tapes will need to be installed heights

Tie the lower ends of the tapes that are at the window sill
knot. Then insert the tube into the resulting loop with a piece of wallpaper,
rolled up so that the tape is in the middle of the tube.
Expand the resulting roll to the top of the curtain and glue it to
her. Вот у вас и получилось сделать жалюзи из обоев своими by hands.
The height of the blinds can be adjusted using a satin ribbon,
перевязывая выше или ниже knot.
Roller blinds can be done in one piece, or from two
paired sections.
As one more option of fastening of a tape which will be
adjusting the height of the blinds can offer a variant with rings.
It turns out that the tape will be passed through the rings and tied to
carnations in the wall. This is an old method, so it is not worth much
attention, but it may be interesting to someone.
In the upper part of the wallpaper, along the edge indented from the upper edge
2-4 cm and 20 from the side edge, insert 3 metal parts, into
form 8. Such an element can be made independently of thick
wire. From the side of the window to the ring of wire tie one
end of the tape, loop it through the bottom under the wallpaper and insert
the other end of the tape into the front ring.
With the second tape, do the same, and in the third ring
merge and insert both tapes at the same time. Pulling over freely
the hanging end of the ribbons of the blinds will rise, and that would fix
height tie the tape to a nail in the wall. His need to drive
