Window valances are an easy way to add some extra flair to your windows as well as hide any unsightly curtain rods or other hardware. When paired with short café curtains or drapes, valance curtains can also add a layered effect to your windows, making them stand out against the wall. For the ultimate in elegance, swags top off your window with an almost casual draping effect that looks stunning. If you’re in the market for some curtain valances to spruce up your windows, here are some tips to help you decide which style fits your design personality:
You might be surprised at how many different types of valances exist. While you might imagine a soft, feminine look when you picture a valance, a tailored style can compliment more masculine décor. If you’re having trouble keeping them all straight, here’s a quick guide to some of the most common styles:
• Scarf: Features a long length of fabric that drapes over the curtain rod so that the middle portion curves down in the center and the ends hang down on either side of the window.
• Balloon: Features lightweight fabric that’s gathered at the hem so it poofs up, similar to the shape of a balloon.
• Crenellated: Typically made from stiffer fabric and featuring a cutout edge along the bottom hem.
• Ascot: A valance with triangular edges that hang down, similar to the edges of an ascot or handkerchief.
• Tailored: A flat, rectangular style that has no ruffles or gathers.
The most important measurement for ensuring your new window valances fit is the width of your window or curtain rod. If you don’t have a curtain rod already in place, measure the width of your window and add 2 to 3 inches so the valance gains full coverage. Length is not as important, but it’s still a good idea to have a general range in mind for how long or short you’d like your swags to be. Don’t forget to consider other factors such as if you have shutters, curtains or draperies already installed. You should also keep in mind how your windows open to make sure your valance curtain doesn’t get in the way.
There are a few different ways to hang your new window valances, so be sure to note which style they use to ensure you have the right hardware and space on hand.
• Attached: This style is perhaps the easiest to put together since it features a valance that’s attached to the main curtain panel. You can easily slip this style onto a curtain rod without having to worry about hanging the valance and curtain separately.
• Mounted: These come pre-attached to a mounting board, which will be secured to your wall and ceiling or inside your window frame. This style requires you to carefully measure the area where your new valance curtains will be mounted.
• Separate rods: This is possibly the most common method of mounting valances, which uses a double curtain rod or two separate curtain rods.
