Waiting for Inspiration Made of three tied panels that float to the floor, this window treatment becomes the perfect canvas for a hand-painted mural, rubber stamped border design or machine embroidery. Dritz Extra-Large Eyelets and wide ribbon are used to hang each panel.		Crisscross Valance This valance has design flair without the fuss! Add your own machine embroidery designs to the corners to make a one-of-a-kind creation. Dritz Cover Buttons accent the heading, and decorative Hollywood Trims tassels hang from each point.
