Valance scarves are an appealing way to stylize an ordinary window.
These versatile fabric panels can be customized or ready-made with
unlimited fabric choices and mounting hardware available. A valance
scarf adds softness that gracefully frames the top of your window while
extending down the sides. The scarves can be self-lined, contrast-lined
or unlined, as draping details typically reveal both the front and back,
especially along the folds and the side jabots.luxury curtain accessories
The benefits of adding fabric to frame your windows are numerous.
Besides aesthetic appeal, fabric can increase a room’s energy efficiency
by trapping air that might otherwise leak into a room in minute
pockets. Acoustic benefits can minimize the echoing caused by hard
surfaces such as tiled floors and granite countertops. Valance scarves
can be mounted several inches beyond a window casing to visually extend
the height and width.
When dressing a kitchen window, it can be a challenge to find the
perfect style that will endure daily activities centered at the sink. A
valance scarf can provide the perfect solution by framing your view and
remaining a safe distance from dishwashing splashes. In task areas, such
as kitchens and utility rooms, consider installing a decorative café
rode to match cabinets or hardware and draping a machine-washable fabric
such as textured cotton or sheer batiste for easy care.
