I wanted to replace my see-through white curtains with some blinds. Nice wooden ones. I got them at Ikea.

These are the contents of 1 packet of Ikea "Lindmon" blinds.

Putting up blinds is no rocket science. These 3 parts are as difficult as it gets. They need to be side or top mounted and then you can just put the blinds in.
Make sure you do not hang them too close to any grips.
Once you know the correct measurements you can start screwing everything on to the wall/ceiling, in my case the top.
TIP: add 3mm to the required space between these holders. This is because the holder's hinges face inwards. This is really bad design that I overlooked and I had to cut 3mm off the rails :-(

So anyway, you should end up like this.

Now you can simply put the rails with the blinds hanging in to the holders and close those holders.
