A kitchen with a view.

flat valance with jabots

With so many windows,
yet a beautiful view of the backyard and the lake beyond,
no privacy was needed but sun control was a must.

There were blinds in each of the windows for sun control,
which were not very attractive on their own.
With plenty of room above each window
this valance was hung more than a foot above the window frame.
They not only hide the blinds when not in use
but give the illusion that the windows are much taller than they actually are.

The jabots are lined in a deep luxurious red faux silk
to pick up the red accents of the kitchen but just a hint of the color peeks thru so as not to overpower the treatment.
