I've bought some standard run of the mill blinds from "Ponden Homes

obviously something which gives a nice clean cut.
Depends on what type of blinds, on the wild assumption that they are
Venetian blinds, you can get slat cutters ...

For normal, metal venetian blinds, I just ran a marker down the edge while
they were closed, opened them up and cut each slat with a pair of scissors.
If you want to go the whole hog, a little 45 degree cut at each corner will
tidy them up.
