Hi
Here are some photos of my window: http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o...n/DSC00036.jpg http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o...n/DSC00035.jpg http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o...n/DSC00034.jpg http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o...n/DSC00033.jpg http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o...n/DSC00032.jpg http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o...n/DSC00032.jpg I have NEVER done any DIY before. I'm 19. First year at uni. Want to learn to do things for myself I did some research: Help on installing roller Blinds - PDF file on : http://www.homebase.co.uk/wcsstore/h...llerblind.html I decided on a suitable Roller Blind: http://www.johnlewis.com/Home+and+Ga...1/Product.aspx PLEASE - if you can spare a few mins, please help me out: Q. Is it sensible for me to put up a roller blind? (I want to block out light mainly) Q. I need to purchase or borrow a drill (cordless drill? Hammer drill?) I've seen on in Argos that has 'laser' guidance - seems like a good idea for idiots such as myself (so I don't drill into the wrong place) Q. What is the best position for me to put the blind up? (I dont need it to 'look pretty'. I just want it to block out light) Should I just hire someone to do it for me? ( I wish I could afford to!) (I rent so want to do it fairly discreetly. I can always remove the blind when I leave so the landlord need never know) |
