Bed Valances

A well-fitted valance is the foundation for an attractive and functional bedding combination. 

Unless requested, McKenzie House valances are made 3-sided to accommodate headboards. They will also have 20cm returns at the top to hide the end of the bed base.

They can be made 4-sided - eg. if you have a day bed which sits away from a wall or a bed where all 4 sides are visible.

Create your own valance that will fit your bed perfectly using the easy-to-follow guide below.

      Step 1. Give your valance a name/ID for future reference.

      Step 2. Choose your fabric 

      If you already have your own, I'm more than happy to work with your fabric. On the Quote Request Form simply state “own” in the fabric column and give the width of your fabric and the size of the pattern repeat (if any) in the area for notes at the bottom of the form (email me if you need help with the pattern repeat).    

          Step 3. Choose your style from the following:

          Wraparound

          Can be made lined or unlined. Unlined valances will have visible stitching around the bottom hemline.

          Inverted Pleat Corners

          Two bottom corners only are pleated. Can be made lined or unlined. Unlined valances will have visible stitching around the bottom hemline.

          Overlapped Corners

          Two bottom corners only are overlapped. Can be made lined or unlined. Unlined valances will have visible stitching around the bottom hemline.

          Step 4. Do you want your valance lined or unlined? If you choose the lined option we will use a white or off-white polycotton.

          Step 5.
