Buying Guide

Check sleeve/topper style for rod compatibility

Verify whether the valance is a sleeve/topper design to match your rod diameter and mounting height for a smooth installation

Select neutral or dusty-rose tones to coordinate with common nursery palettes while keeping visual width from feeling cramped
