We’ll start by stating the obvious: shopping for blinds online is not anyone’s idea of a good time. Nobody bookmarks "Roman vs Venetian" comparison charts for the thrill of it. But at some point - after the fifteenth glare-filled Zoom call or the fourth sticky night in a stuffy bedroom - you realise you’ve been living inside a fishbowl, and your neighbours probably know more about your posture habits than your physio does. Window coverings, tragically, become necessary. Enter Make My Blinds, a UK-based online retailer selling custom made-to-measure blinds, shutters, and curtains, aiming to make this mildly soul-sapping experience at least tolerable - and maybe even slightly efficient.
Make My Blinds isn’t flashy. Nor is it trying to be. The site is dense, bordering on labyrinthine, with enough colour categories and room-specific suggestions to make your head tilt in quiet despair. But dig a little and you'll find what many people actually want: a straightforward way to measure their windows, a decent selection of solid basics (white wooden blinds continue their unshakeable reign), and a process that doesn’t require taking an afternoon off work to complete. The company’s tagline - "Blinds made easy" - is not false advertising, which in this market qualifies as high praise.
The offering spans all the usual suspects: Wooden, Roller, Roman, Perfect Fit, Electric, Day & Night, and even No Drill blinds that throw out the screwdriver in favour of slotting in with a tolerable degree of precision. Prices vary, but most options sit inside the mental budget you probably already had, with Roller Blinds starting from around £22, and Wooden blinds typically clocking in around the £35–£60 mark for standard window sizes. Everything is made to order, so while it’s not IKEA-fast, you're not waiting six months, either. A flat UK-wide shipping fee of £9.99 keeps it simple - just enough to remind you you’re not getting free shipping, without feeling like you’ve been nicked for delivery to a London postcode.
The sample service earns quiet points for being well thought through: free, fast, and sent via Royal Mail first class, these fabric swatches arrive small enough to pass through most letterboxes. The colour matching isn’t perfect - screen brightness is no friend when choosing "Cloud Grey" or "Pale Ash" - but short of standing in a showroom under supermarket-grade lighting, it’s a reasonable compromise. The samples are thin, fuss-free, and unglamorous. But again, so is the process of covering windows.
No Drill Blinds are having their moment. Make My Blinds offers several varieties (Wooden, Roller, Venetian) that promise the kind of friction-fit simplicity usually restricted to phone cases and IKEA drawer inserts. And, for once, the promise mostly sticks. Installation is genuinely fast - less "easy like Sunday morning" and more "easy like YouTube in 1.5x speed." They won't move under normal use, though you wouldn’t want to open and slam the window repeatedly like a Victorian ghost scene. That said, for renters or commitment-phobic decorators, they offer a rare combination of low impact and medium longevity.
Make My Blinds regularly runs sales that slash 10–15% off the total. Right now there’s a May Day offer (code: 15MAYDAY) that shaves a not-insignificant 15% off everything, though - predictably - it won’t hang around forever. First-time shoppers spending over £150 can also score 10% off by signing up for email, which is about as gentle an upsell as you're likely to be offered online these days. It’s not mind-blowing, but in the world of custom-built home fittings, a tenner saved is a tenner you can put into the coffee machine fund instead.
An easy win here is the five-year guarantee on blinds, which is less about confidence and more about quiet reassurance that you won’t be reordering them two years after installation. More interesting - especially if you’re the kind of person who last used a measuring tape for crafting lockdown banana bread shelves - is the MeasureSure Cover. It’s a modest insurance option you can tack onto your order that effectively says: "Try your best, and we’ll forgive you the wrong numbers." Useful, in the judicious, keep-you-from-swearing-in-front-of-your-kids sort of way.
The pitch, ultimately, is refreshingly grounded. You choose the blind, measure your windows (honestly, just follow the guides), maybe order a few swatches, click order, and a couple of weeks later you have new blinds that don’t fall to pieces the first time someone draws them open too hard. Customer reviews on-site are broadly positive, skewing toward the sort of people who've recently finished a kitchen renovation and are finally sorting the windows. It’s not thrilling, but neither is the discovery that blackout curtains aren’t actually blackout. Ask us how we know.
Make My Blinds won’t change your life. But it might change the light patterns in your living room. And some days, that’s enough.
