What Window Treatment should I use? 
We get requested this question all of the time. And to be honest sometimes the question is pretty simple as well as at others times a picture of the situation definitely helps. There are so numerous choices in today’s market it can be overwhelming at times. A lot of homes today utilize a combination of drapery panels, pleated blinds, sheers, wooden shutters, roman shades as well as valances. 
 Once you have decided you desire to utilize valances as well as panels, you require not look any further you have definitely come to the right place!  Nowhere on the web shall you find a business that can help you with fabric selection, sizing questions, style questions as well as be able to manufacture as well as ship your new treatments in 7 days or less! Even if a product is already made as well as stocked at a business, it can take 5 or more days on behalf of it to get shipped. Why would you desire to buy mass produced products when on behalf of about the same price you can get window treatments made to fit your windows in upscale luxury,  designer fabrics, unique styles as well as high quality.
Let’s first talk a little about styles of valances as well as rod widths. When it comes to valances, the width of rod you require can play a major part in determining which styles can as well as can not be used.  Gathered valance styles give you more flexibility when it comes to what size window treatment you shall require than a flat rod pocket style has. Since the gathered valance is gathered on the rod, the exact rod width is not so important. Fullness of an estimated all window treatments is averaged at about 2 ½ times rod width.  A lot of times you can utilize multiple valances on a rod in order to get the fullness you desire, however, this is not at all times true. You require to manufacture sure the valances when placed on the rod combined look as if its one treatment.  We have listed all of our valances as to whether inserts can be used to get a wider treatment or multiple treatments can be used on one rod.  
The flat rod pocket styles are great alternatives to having board mounted valances that can cost 3 - 4 times as much.  The only concern with the flat rod style is that there should be no gathering of the rod pocket which means the width of your rod as well as the returns shall play a major part in determining whether that particular style can be used.  Depending on the style of flat rod pocket valance you are considering, some of the treatments can be made any width up to a certain size, whereas others are only available in the sizes given.  So if you have a rod width of 40” as well as 2 returns each 3”, you would require a flat rod style width of 46”. If the treatment width can't be altered as well as is only made in “lets say” a 52” width, then you could (if you have the wall space) expand the face width of your rod to 46” as well as the treatment could be used then, retain in mind 6” is on behalf of the return on each side.
