Abstract: A vertical blinds support device having a pair of opposing plates wherein a first plate has two extending posts spaced at a predetermined distance from each other, each post having opposite surfaces with rails projecting from the surfaces of the posts, and a second plate having two apertures corresponding to the two posts with each of the apertures having interior ridges extending inward for receiving the posts, respectively, such that the rails slidably engage and releasably interlock with the interior ridges of corresponding apertures to join the two plates thereby sandwiching a plurality of vertical blinds therebetween. The distance between the plates may be adjusted by pushing or pulling the posts further into or out of the apertures. The vertical blind support device may be raised and lowered on the blinds to a desired position for separating the upper ends of the blinds to create a fanned appearance.
