Very interested. Can these be fitted to velux type windows?
(actually Wickes) as well as traditional windows please
Hi Gaynor, I’ve tried to make a roller blind but this wasn’t successful. For a Velux you could have a flat ‘plate’ of the fabric with magnets around the edge but this would have to be completely unclipped when you wanted daylight, so not really very practical I’m afraid.
Hi, just wondered if these blinds are washable at all, I am potentially interested in one for our kitchen which has a big expanse of glass but obviously grease etc can build up and I will want to be able to freshen it up periodically. Thanks!
Hi Julia, I wouldn’t recommend putting them in a washing machine (partly as you’d have to take a lot of components apart first) but they are made from a really robust polyester (I can send you samples) which is pretty scrubbable. I have a spray cleaner that I’ve used for some fabrics which is effective but in a kitchen I’d recommend spraying the blinds with fabric protector (eg. scotchguard) before hanging them for extra protection.
