Blind manufacturing process

First you need to measure the window opening, or rather, the glass in the frame. The resulting measurements result in a length of 1 meter 50 cm (the values ​​will differ in each case). We measure a piece of wallpaper 1 m 50 cm long and add another 30 cm for assembly. As a result of the measurements, you should get a paper sheet 1 m 80 cm long. Next, the wrong side of the wallpaper must be marked at 3 cm.
