Abstract
A horizontal Venetian blind slat structure includes a plurality of horizontal rods and binding cords wherein the horizontal rods are made of elongated natural materials such as bamboo or wooden sticks, and the binding cords are of different colors and patterns. The horizontal rods arranged in parallel are bound into a large piece via the binding cords weaving up and down the horizontal rods for combination thereof. Fastening glue is applied onto the binding cords to strengthen the combination thereof, and fissures are formed at the space between every two horizontal rods with no binding cords attached thereto. The large piece of horizontal rods bound via the binding cords is then cut into a blind slat of proper length with two cord-passage holes disposed at both ends thereof; whereby, via the binding cords of different colors and patterns, the blind slat is variably changed in beautiful display. Besides, the blind slat thereof is easily disposed of when out of use since the horizontal rods thereof can be quickly decomposed in soil without causing pollution to the environment thereof.
