Anyone got a white wood venetian blind - where from?

Looking to get a small white wooden venetian blind for our downstairs toilet. Bought one from B&Q but the drop was for a door length so had to return. Window is only 90cm drop.

Can anyone recommend a good blinds website so I can order made to measure online?

Have you checked dunelm?

i got one in dunelm for my dining room window.

If they are too long you can remove slats very easily...undo the popper toggle doodahs on the bottom bar, undo the knots and just unthread the string from the slats you don't want, trim the blind supporting box thread, tidy the strings as you found them and reassemble and you are good to go.
I hate it when you see blinds with a huge wodge of excess slats at the bottom...I want to knock on the door and sort them out.

Obv shortening a door one for a small toilet window is a bit excessive, but you might be able to get a standar drop one. IME made to measure blinds are usually criminally pricey!

I've used these now for almost every window in the house, and really liked them

The darker coloured ones do tend to show the dust, paler ones better in that way.

What slat width would be best for small 60 x 90 window? I'm guessing narrower width the smaller the window?

I bought a roller blind for my kitchen which I had custom made. The window is 220cm wide and it cost me £135!!! I didn't want to pay it, but nowhere does ready made ones that big!!

We have quite small windows, so started with the narrow slats. DH having taken no interest suddenly decided he preferred the wider slats, even on the smallest windows. Since i had by that wished i had gone for paler rather than darker colour range, we tried a paler one with wider slats.

To my surprise the wider slats did look better even on the smaller windows...sigh.
