How I Fixed a Damaged Blind in Less Than 5 Minutes!
$5
5 Minutes
Easy
I didn't want to have to purchase a whole box of blinds, so I decided to save money by repairing a broken slat with only a bamboo skewer and a small piece of packing tape!
here is the broken slat before:
don't you hate it when this happens and it leaves an opening?
a small piece of packing tape & bamboo skewer
I taped the bamboo skewer that I snapped to fit the width of the opening to "bridge" the broken area.
I used packing tape for strength
easy fix, haven't had one of these break, and it saved me a trip to the store....
all done
I like saving money these types of repairs

No, I haven't, but I had my own window treatments business for many years and know all types of window blinds/coverings inside and out. The flatness and the thickness of a popsicle stick would work quite well with the type of repair you need.

Ty so much. I hated leaving my blinds looking a mess until payday💛💙💜💚.
