Window
valances are a great accessory for windows and drapes, and
the different types of window valances enable you to add
beauty and richness to any room. From window valances with
scarf detail to simpler valances, you can create the perfect
look by using these accessories to complement your drapes.
Unlike a pelmet, which is a stiffer and flatter drapery accessory,
a valance is a softer accessory. When you use window
curtain valances, you can transform simple window dressings into
something far more elaborate. You won’t even need to
invest in a decorative curtain pole to add to the richness
of the room, since the valance will cover the pole, so that
only the beautiful fabric of your drapes and accessories
is on view.
You can also use these accessories alone as well as in
combination with your drapes. Smaller windows can look
really effective and classy when you use just a valance.
This will allow plenty of light in, but will also enable
you to enjoy your choice of fabric across the top part
of the glass, which can look very effective and stylish.
On larger or longer windows, valances can look a little
lonely when used alone, so it is better to use them to
enhance the drapes already being used. You can create fullness
and richness with these accessories. For a really elaborate
look you can use embroidered window valances with scarf
details on your drapes, or you may prefer to go for something
a little more subtle with one of a range of simple valances.
Select from different types of window valances to achieve
the look you want
You can create just the right look by selecting from a
range of valances to suit your needs. You can choose from
a wide range of fabrics to set off your drapes perfectly,
so whether your curtains are silk and satin or whether
they are linen or polyester, you can make them really stand
out with a choice of valances. From simple designs and
plan colors, to embroidered valances in rich, luxurious
shades, you can enjoy making the most of your room and
drapes with a fantastic choice of window valances.
