    Your valance is gorgeous! I know to stop them from fading you would have to line them BUT then the light wouldn't show through and they wouldn't look like stained glass as much. You did a beautiful job!

    Gorgeous! I have 4 sets of blinds like yours. I wanted to rip them down (OK, they are custom, I would cry!) but you have shown me an alternative to spending big bucks!

    I'd line them too, so they don't fade. And I love the idea of a table runner to coordinate.

    Thanks for sharing!

    I love them! I am in the process, as I finish UFOs, of re-doing my sewing room. My hubby is building me a new sewing table and wall cabinets. I need something to go across my window, and that is a wonderful idea! Thanks for sharing!!!
