Valances

What Is A Bed Valance?

A bed valance, also known as a bed skirt or a bed wrap, is a piece of material that is designed to go over the base of a bed. Bed valances are ideal for protecting the base and frame of your bed from getting dirty, hiding whatever you have stored underneath your bed, creating your own unique bedroom decor style and much more. If you are interested in creating your own personal style, read our guide on how to style bed linen and bed base covers for some great tips.

How To Choose The Right Bed Valance

To help you choose the right bed valance for your bedroom, here are some helpful tips that you'll need to consider:

Bed skirt corners

As a bed valance will be injecting style into your bedroom, deciding on what type of corners you'll want is important. For example, we have Chyka Home Cordon French bed skirts that feature continuous corners with pleats, providing an elegant style and are perfect for hiding the space underneath the bed.

Bed valance colour

Another factor to consider is the colour of the bed skirt. Do you want it to compliment the existing bedroom colour or do you want it to stand out as a statement piece? Our range of bed valances has a large selection of colours, so whether you're wanting to match the bed skirt with the headboard, bedroom curtains or walls, you'll have plenty of options at Harris Scarfe.

Bed base cover size

One of the most crucial things to consider when choosing a new bed valance is the overall size according to the size of your bed. The bed skirt will need to hang properly from the bed, so make sure you have the right 'drop measurement'. A common measurement is 38cm for standard bed valances, so ensure that the drop measurement is a little longer so that the bed skirt will reach the floor.
