  • this week marianne is working off her room and board

    she is making my versailles style valance boxes and drapes .i went to a custom design place and estimate was 1500.00 a window .i have 2 windows ...not a option .so we found a pattern online, marianne modified to fit my windows and we went to home depot got the plywood and had them do all the cuts (glenn's tools are packed). so yesterday and today she worked on valance boxes, they look awesome . the complete cost for boxes and drapes (no labor cost of course) is 350.00 a window .

    here is the first completed valance box'

    these are 81 inches wide and 12 inches in length ( my windows are 75 inches wide).this gives you room to hang the drapes up inside. the drapes will be made from the corresponding bee fabric.
