    At 12:54 you said hold on wait a minute that’s what I figured and then you did something else to slide the valance on. What did you do? Thanks

    • @TexasHomesteaders

      He moved the clips because they were hitting something. You can reposition them.

    How do you make the bottom close. My bottom blinds is doesn't shut that well. I still see an inch gap.

    • @TexasHomesteaders
      @TexasHomesteaders  ปีที่แล้ว

      After you shorten the blinds according to the height of your window, there is a bit of a gap at the bottom. I guess it is a design flaw.

    I just ordered these same faux wood blinds from Lowes! They look nice. How are they holding up?

      The first set we installed in 2017 and they still look brand new even after sitting in the hot Texas sun all these years.

    Thanks for the video, I’m installing some today. I noticed you cut from one side, if you wanted to take a 1/2 inch off, should you take 1/4 inch off each side?

    Wait...shouldn't you split the difference between the 2 sides so your strings are centered after its hung up??? Seems like if you lop off the entire measurement on just one side...When you hang it up the 3 draw strings will be farther to one side and not centered in the window???

    • @TexasHomesteaders
      @TexasHomesteaders  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You are correct. He did cut equal amounts on each side. We just showed doing one side to shorten the video assuming people knew that it had to be repeated on both sides. If we ever do the video again, we'd point that out.

    I wish you would have show the center mount. I got the sides on with no issue but the center has me yelling some choice words. No where to put a screw driver, much less a drill.

    • @TexasHomesteaders
      @TexasHomesteaders  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      He didn't use the center bracket. Our windows aren't really wide enough to need it.

    Anyone notice a smell after they cut their blinds? Trying to determine if it is safe. Thanks.

    • @TexasHomesteaders
      @TexasHomesteaders  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      A dull/hot blade might produce a smell but otherwise no smell here.

    • @TexasHomesteaders
      @TexasHomesteaders  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hmmm. I wonder why? You grab the bottom and pull down. If that doesn't work, you may have bought a defective blind. We actually bought and installed a window recently that wouldn't open. It happens.

    • @carolynnorton9552
      @carolynnorton9552 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@TexasHomesteaders Thank you for your response. I had to pull the blind down much, much harder and it came down. I was afraid of pulling too hard and bringing down the whole blind, but it needed to be pulled down hard. It's supposed to pull down easily with little pull, but it doesn't. Have a nice day. 🌞❤

    It would have been more helpful if this was done by someone who didn't appear to be doing it for the first time.
    Why cut all on one side rather than trim half off each?
    Apparently, you can't just put the valance clips anywhere. Why not measure or eyeball the clip placement before installing the blind?
    Why did the blind need to be removed in the fully open and awkward position rather than in the closed position?

    • @TexasHomesteaders
      @TexasHomesteaders  ปีที่แล้ว

      He wasn't doing it for the first time. He was doing a video like that for the first time and it tends to make some people nervous. He did cut off both sides. Sometimes video editing cuts things off that shouldn't have been cut off. We assumed people would know you can't just cut it all off on one side and make it lop sided. Common sense and all. If you think you can do a better video, have at it bud.

      Not sure what you are alluding to. I'd, be happy to take a picture of all of our blinds and email them to you. Pretty simple cut. Cuts about like wood and not many people zoom in on the cut when cutting wood so why would we here? - cheri

      I'll video the cut side when I get home and post the link here.....

      Oh. The speed square. lol. Yeah, it is technically a triangle but most of us call it a speed square and he just shortened it.
