Of the plethora of options available for windows treatments, swag and balloon valences for windows are the top picks. In fact, the options with these two styles are limitless due to the vast array of fabric styles and patterns that are suitable to use. This choice, of course, depends on the overall style, design and motif of the room. It is important to remember that the installation of any fashionable valance for window areas will enhance the decor of a room.
Balloon valances for window are popular but many people have not heard of them. They are generally used in a more formal setting and have often been described as puffy balloons when pulled up. When lowered, they do appear more flat. Although they are often installed in formal living or dining rooms, these pretty valances look equally lovely in a master bedroom or a child’s bedroom. It is important to note that balloon type window valances require a separate curtain rod and do not work with a standard curtain rod.
Using a swag valance for windows is ubiquitous in kitchen. In fact, open almost every design magazine on the market and you will see a swag valance over the kitchen sink window. They can add a punch of color to the area while still letting in plenty of light. Generally, they come in three sections, tow longer sections to hand down on each side and a piece to swag across the center. In a kitchen, you generally do not need much more privacy but you could hide mini blinds behind the swag or a more utilitarian curtain.
Valances for windows are a great way to inject some of your own personality into your home. You can use them to hide an unattractive view, to cover up clunky yet useful mini blinds or just to make a room beautiful and cohesively designed. In fact, anyone looking to create a designer look with the high price tag should consider upgrading their window treatments.
