Using your new window valance is super easy. First, grab a curtain rod that fits the rod pocket on the valance. Slide the rod through the pocket and hang it up in your desired window. You can use it in your kitchen to add a touch of style, or in your bathroom for a more private look. When it comes to cleaning, just toss it in the washing machine. Use a gentle cycle and mild detergent to keep it looking great. After washing, let it air dry. Keep in mind that because of different computer monitors, the color you see on your screen might not be exactly the same as the real valance. But don't worry, it will still look amazing in your room.
