A window shade may include a shade, a sliding base, a weight track, a first blocking unit, and two second blocking units. The shade has two mount bars respectively formed at an upper end and a lower end thereof, and the shade is connected to the sliding base and the weight track through the two mount bars. The position of the sliding base is limited by the first blocking unit while the second blocking units are configured to limit the position of the weight track. With the first blocking unit and the two second blocking units, the shade can be replaced easily, and also the structural stability of the window shade is improved.

A window shade may include a shade, and each of a top portion and a bottom portion thereof has a mount bar. The shade is installed into a sliding unit through the mount bar on the top portion of the shade, and the mount bar on the bottom portion of the shade is coupled with a weight track. The mount bars on the top portion and the bottom portion of the shade are adapted to enable the shade to horizontally install on a top track of a window curtain and also to enable the weight of the weight track to be evenly distributed on the bottom portion of the shade, thereby smoothing the operation of the shade.

Hanging blinds includes an upper track and a plurality of sliders. The upper track has at least a first track and a second track respectively having a sliding slot. Each of sliders has a guiding groove and a positioning groove. A sliding block is disposed at an end of the positioning groove and enabling the slider to be mounted onto a guiding groove of an adjacent slider. Each slider is mounted onto one sliding slot of the first and second tracks. A last slider on the second track has at least two positioning blocks locking with an end of the second track. The sliders other than the last slider each has a pulley. The last slider on the first track has a crossing pulley slidably mounted in the sliding slot of the second track. The crossing pulley is disposed before a pulley of a first slider on the second track.

An apparatus that facilitates commencement and execution off-loom bead weaving stitches such as, but not limited to, odd/even count Peyote (Gourd), Two (or more) Drop Peyote, Herringbone (Ndebele), Brick (Comanche/Cheyenne), Right Angle Weave, Netting, and derivative stitches. The apparatus in all embodiments provides means to temporarily secure beads by use of one or more of the following: a nonflexible or flexible filament-with or without aid of a sewing needle, friction, clasping with means to engage and disengage or a releasable adhesive in a format that enables the user to have improved sightline and access to the beads, improved control of bead placement resulting in a reduction of color placement and stitch execution errors, and allows the completed or in progress beadwork to be removed from the apparatus intact. The apparatus may be formatted for bead size and configured or combined to accommodate the width of the desired beadwork.
