I can’t believe we’ve been in our new house for over six months now! Time has flown… and we’ve only just got blinds for our living room bay window… Whoops! It just felt like an overwhelming task to take on. We looked in shops but none of the standard sized blinds available were the right size for our square bay window in our living room. We had to get customised blinds which I imaged would be difficult but it was not with the help from Make My Blinds.

We browsed the website and settled on grey wooden blinds. We really like the look of wooden blinds and they can’t bend like metal ones can so they’re more durable too. We measured our window and gave Make My Blind the measurements. You can choose to measure your window and they’ll calculate the size of the blinds or you can measure out how big you want the actual blinds to be. We did the latter.

In our tired, parents of three young children (including an almost newborn baby) state, we forgot to think about where the handles of the windows are and factor that into our measurements but my husband has successfully trimmed the blind a little bit to make them fit neatly without the window handles getting in the way! There’s a handy guide of how to measure your window for your customised blinds here. Bay windows are slightly more complicated of course but very much do-able if you focus on the task and remember the handles! You also need to incorporate the size of the mechanism at the top of the blinds when you measure.

The installation was quite straightforward and we’re so happy with the result! The blinds still let in plenty of light when open, but make the house feel more private than a completely exposed window. When closed, they block the light so that we can enjoy watching a film or nap in the dark.

Our new blinds from Make My Blinds look great and have made our living room much more functional and complete. The blinds are easy to open and close, pull up and down too the mechanism is very smooth.

We’d definitely use Make My Blinds again in the future!

These blinds were sent to us for this review. As always, all my reviews are 100% honest and all thoughts and opinions are my own.
