ABSTRACT:
A window blind assembly having a bottom rail that defines a channel for receiving and storing unnecessary or unused slats of the blind assembly to enable the ready customization of the blind assembly to fit windows of different heights. End caps removably engageable with the ends of the storage rail may be provided for retaining the slats within the channel. Slots may be formed on each of the leading edges of the end caps, extending inwardly, for engaging a cover slat to enclose the storage rail and enhance the aesthetic appearance of the storage rail. Means are also provided for readily securing the storage rail to the cords of the blind assembly.
