Simple, Sophisticated Valance

A valance can hide the mechanics of an underlying privacy treatment, such as shades or a blind, but in this kitchen privacy isn't an issue. The valance is purely decorative. Shaped with jabot ends, the valance subtly mimics the arch over the range niche. White fabric that blends with the wall and cabinetry enhances the connection. This type of treatment is a good choice for windows above the sink because it's safely out of reach of splashing water.
