MUST READ THE FULL PRODUCT DESCRIPTION BELOW BEFORE PURCHASE AND MUST FOLLOW PROVIDED MEASURING INSTRUCTIONS. ▼
► WHAT YOU ARE BUYING:
A faux shade is a window valance that's made to look exactly like a Roman shade, but its length is stationary (fixed) and it doesn't move up or down. This is a budget-friendly alternative to expensive custom Roman shades.
Our method does not use metal staples in the back, but is sewn with thread. We also use minimal sewing for the folds to give you a smooth front.
► INSTALLATION + MEASURE:
Our faux shades can be purchased in width increments of a half inch (1/2" or 0.5"). All come with a 2-1/2" rod pocket sewn on top and should be installed on a curtain rod (decorative rod for outside mount or spring tension rod for inside mount).
For detailed measuring help, you MUST follow the guide below:

Please Note:
Everything we make is made to order and thus ALL SALES ARE FINAL. We highly recommend following all our measuring instructions and guides. It's a great resource that's full of diagrams and measuring calculators, so use it.
For fabric care, hardware, and installation instructions, refer to the installation guide below:

PLEASE FOLLOW THE STEPS BELOW TO MAKE YOUR PURCHASE:
► STEP 1: WIDTH
Decide whether your valance will be an inside-mount, outside-mount, or frame mount and determine what valance width you need to order after following our guide above.
NOTE that faux shade valances over 52" wide will have one or two pattern-matched seams. To minimize the appearance of seams, we highly recommend purchasing the blackout lining upgrade.
► STEP 2: LENGTH
There is no set rule on how long a faux shade valance should be - refer to our measuring guide for guidance. Be mindful that any valance less than 16 inches long is very small, so large fabric patterns may get cut off on it.
Number of folds on your valance depends on the length.
- 11 to 13" long - valance has 2 folds;
- 14" or longer - valance has 3 folds
You will need to TYPE into the personalization part above how long you want your valance to be made from the length selection you made. For example, if you want a 12" long valance, select the "11, 12, or 13 Inches" length and type below that you want the valance to be 12 Inches.
Folds are explained in more detail in the measuring guide.
► STEP 3: COLOR CHOICE
Some of our faux shades can be made in different colors. Please go through the pictures above, then type the chosen color in the "Add your personalization" box above. If you aren't sure about the color, you can find all our samples by copying and pasting the following page in your browser:

(FYI: The fabric name and color is written in the product pictures or product title above. Use that information when browsing our samples.)
► STEP 4: ADDITIONAL OPTIONS FOR AN UPCHARGE
BLACKOUT LINING
Our faux shades come standard with an upgrade from the usually thin cotton/poly lining to a thermal suede lining in white. Thermal suede lining is a light-filtering (privacy) lining with some minor thermal protection properties. If you'd like your valance to fully block out light instead, you have the option of upgrading to a thick 3-pass foam blackout lining. We highly recommend this upgrade if your faux shade will be directly up against the glass panes. To purchase this upgrade, please go to:

Don't forget, you can also purchase lining samples in addition to fabric samples to test on your window before ordering.
GROSGRAIN RIBBON
We can add grosgrain ribbon to the inset edges of your faux shade. To purchase this upgrade, please go to:

We can add tassel fringe or beaded fringe to the bottom edge of your faux shade. To purchase this upgrade, please go to:

SIDE FLAPS
The following option is for outside-mounted faux shades only. Do not choose for inside mounts. Add side flaps if you'd like to give your faux shade a finished look when viewed from the side and to hide bulky curtain brackets. To purchase this upgrade, please go to:

ROD POCKET
This product comes standard with a 2-1/2-inch rod pocket, which will fit a curtain rod up to 1-3/8-inch in diameter. If you'd like to upgrade to a larger rod pocket to fit other curtain rods or to add hook and loop tape to the back, please go to:

POLICIES
All cancellation requests must be received within 24 hours of purchase. Because we immediately start ordering materials from the mill after your order, we reserve the right to deny any cancellation request after 24 hours of purchase.
We will absolutely not honor any cancellations requests or requests to change sizes or other details if we have already paid the supplier for your materials or the material has been cut for your order. We respectfully ask to not purchase from us if you're not a serious buyer or haven't finalized your sizes yet.
Our custom work requires a lot of planning and time for each customer's unique order, so all sales are final except for errors in workmanship or damage.
The way a fabric looks in your home can differ for various reasons, from your computer monitor settings to how white or yellow the lighting in your room is. For that reason, we highly recommend purchasing fabric, lining,and trim samples first.
Measuring incorrectly or not liking a fabric are not valid reasons for returns. We provide detailed measuring instructions and offer fabric, lining, and trim samples to avoid this. Customers are responsible for fully reading the product descriptions and adhering to our measuring instructions.
Any requests for added features or labor outside the scope of what is specified on the purchased product page and invoice will be denied without prior approval from us and will be canceled. It is the customer's responsibility to ask any questions and read all pertinent product information offered before purchase.
We will honor a comment left in the Notes to Seller field or comment field (found on the shopping cart and checkout pages) only if you have prior communication and agreement from us
All other comments left on the checkout page will routinely be disregarded and WILL be canceled.
All upgrades must be purchased in the same transaction as the underlying window treatment. We will not honor any requests for upgrades separately from the original order after the purchase has already been made.
Most items ship via United States Postal Service (USPS) unless otherwise stated. It is the customer's responsibility to ensure the correct shipping address is entered on the checkout page and to hold mail if they are on vacation. Canadian customers are responsible for duty fees, taxes, or any other fees due.
