This is a very classic looking valance that can be used to top off your window treatment in almost any room and make it look fabulous! I'm using mine in the kitchen, but I'm sure they will find a home in other rooms before my love for decorating is over. The material is good quality, washes easily and withstands the sun w/o fading. These can be paired with curtains, tie-ups, plain shades or used as is, and they go with all patterns too. I'll never be w/o these valances in my home. They are a staple for so many classic decorating schemes.
