Drill one small hole in each plank.a hole at the top in the center, and two holes in the middle on the sides and at the bottom on the sides. Thread metal rings, such as from a keychain, through the top holes and hang all the boards on the crossbar.
Now the boards need to be connected together.To do this, take a coil of wire and tie the boards together in the middle and at the bottom. If desired, you can use a tourniquet, rope, or even ribbons. You should not tie them too tightly, check if the blinds fold freely like an accordion.
