Step 1: Measure your window width (and depth) so you know the length of your DIY window valance.. My window valance needed to be 52″ wide and 2.5″ deep.
Step 2: Measure and cut your foam board, you can use a scissors but the easiest way to cut the foam board is with an exacto knife.
Step 3: If you needed to use two pieces of foam board to cover your entire window. Tape the two pieces of foam board together.
Step 4: Fold coffee filter in half and then another half to create a triangle. Hot glue coffee filter to your foam board, continue gluing the coffee filters until the entire board is covered.
Step 5: Attach your foam Board to the curtain rod using command strips
And there you have it. Watch the Video for a step by step tutorial on how to make your own window valance.
