Know before you buy
The valance measures 60 inches wide by 16 inches long. It is designed to fit standard window widths, though you may want to purchase multiple panels if you prefer a fuller, more gathered look on wider windows.
The valance features a 3.25-inch rod pocket, which accommodates most standard curtain rods, including decorative poles. Ensure your rod diameter is less than 3.25 inches for smooth installation.
Because it is crafted from 100% cotton, we recommend following the care instructions carefully—machine wash on a delicate cycle and tumble dry on low heat—to maintain the integrity of the fabric and prevent shrinkage.
The full lining adds weight and structure to the cotton fabric, which ensures the valance hangs straight and maintains a clean, professional drape. It also provides an extra layer of protection against sun damage.
The pattern combines Christmas Red, Olde Brick Red, and Black. These tones create a deep, rustic palette that leans toward a traditional farmhouse aesthetic rather than a bright, primary red.
