This lace valance will enhance any window it graces and bring a warm charm to your home. Pattern is measured in sections, and all you need to do is measure your window to find out how many sections you will need. Pattern is given in both standard and inverted colors for ease of reading and working as not all readers display equally.

Section mesh count is 43w x 100h
