Valance or No Valance: How to Make the Right Choice
Intro
Ever wondered what the big deal is with valances on motorized shades?
Let's break it down and see why adding a valance might just be the best
thing you can do for your windows. Ready to see the magic? Let’s go!
Functional Perspective
From a functional standpoint, the primary role of a valance is to prevent light leakage from the top when the shade is recessed. This is super important for spaces like bedrooms, where you want complete darkness for a good night's sleep.
Valance - Ideal for blocking lights from the top
No Valance - light sneaking in at the top
Aesthetic Perspective
Now, let us talk style! A valance can be the cherry on top, blending seamlessly with your decor and giving your window treatments a polished, modern look. Different colors and styles of valances can match any window frame, making your shades look elegant and refined.
