?Elements of Soft Valances - DVD After almost 30 years in the decorating industry, I had an epiphany! Many of the window treatments my business created for clients had the same “elements”, but they were used in different combinations, with different fabrics. This DVD shows what I have identified as the 12 most commonly used elements, and how to use them. In addition, I have developed my own template system using these elements. You will Learn: How to identify the best fabrics to use for each design How to get many different looks from the same elements How to size a tops treatment to fit your window The three types of top treatments Matching patterns Bonus techniques: How and why to interline Making a pleated ruffle trim Making and applying micro welt Micro welt with flat piping
