    Default Where to get a pink checkered valence?

    I'm selling our crib set which includes the valences. DD could use a pinnk checkered valence to go with her new bedspread. Anyone know where I can find that?

    PBK used to have ones that seem PERFECT for you, in fact I went to their page to get the link, and they're OOS. But I bet if you called them, they would be able to tell you if there are any stores that still have them, and they will ship them to you. I once went to a local PBK, and they called a store in King of Prussia (or somewhere) in PA, and had them ship a rug to me.

    Here's the one I was thinking of for you:

    Or, you could try one of the valances from Carousel. They have balloon style and tab top style gingham valances in pink gingham, bright pink gingham and pink and brown gingham. Looks like their valances cost between $50-$60 or so. I haven't used their accessories, but I love my Carousel crib bedding!

    That would be perfect if it was just accross the top and not down the sides. I just need the top part.

    The balloon style is exactly what I want. It's way more than I was planning on spending though. I have 2 windows to do in DD's room.

    Can you sew? That wouldn't be that difficult to make.

    That is exactly what I have been looking for. I found something similar on ebay, but darker. I needed the lighter pink like this one. Thank you!!

    I cannot sew to save my life. Unfortunately that is not a life skill that my mother or grandmother taught me. I can crochet like nobodies business though

    I do have my mother's sewing machine, but by the time I figure out how to sew the valence I could have gotten it and put it up (I really have no idea how to do things other than hem pants/skirts/dresses).

    Great! Glad you like it. For $20 a piece, its not really worth it (IMO) to start figuring out how to sew a valance...
