You’ll also find some further ideas here to save money on valances all year round.
Department Stores
Buy Valances on Sale to Save Money
You’ll find the best deals in the clearance racks of the ready-made curtain section of large department stores where you’ll often find ends of lines, reductions for damaged packaging and special purchases. If the store is left with the valance and no matching curtain you can usually get these for very little. They are great for pairing with a plain blind or curtain.
You’ll also often find special deals in the custom curtains area of these stores where special deals often include reductions on fabric and free making. If you can get your valances made for free then you will be able to get exactly what you want at a very reasonable price or you can use the money you saved on your custom curtains during the sale to buy matching valances.
Look for Window Valances Online

Online stores have sales and special deals too at this time of year in particular so watch out for them. The best sites offer a tailor-made solution to suit your windows as well as plenty of ready made valances. When buying check the terms as shipping costs can add considerably to the overall cost and if you forget about them they can be quite a blow to your budget.
Can’t Afford Designer Valances?
If fancy valances are beyond your budget don’t give up on the idea altogether, buy plain valances and trim them to make them beautiful. Add a braid edging or fringing or beaded trimming to make them special. You can pick up many trimmings from the same department stores which sell the designer valances that ae beyond your budget. Of course the best trimming isn’t cheap and you’ll have a pay for a few yards but it’s a lot cheaper than an expensive valance.
Don’t Forget to Save on Drapery Hardware
When you are hanging both a curtain and a valance you will need double drapery rods so that the valance does not affect the operation of the curtains. While looking for discount valances don’t forget to cast an eye over any discounts on curtain rods that you can take advantage of. After all the final cost of window valances has to include the price of actually getting them hanging above your windows.
