Textile window valance made from a ballooning-themed printed textile. The bottom edge is scalloped and has been edged with a burgundy fabric. The reverse is lined with a plain textile, and a burlap-like textile is in between the printed textile and the backing to add stiffness to the valance. The left edge of the valance is finished and sewn closed, but the right side is unfinished and open.
One of two matching valances. Also accompanied by two curtain panels, two curtain tie-backs, and a bedspread in the same printed textile.
