For my old bedroom curtains, I made a flat/tailored valance. I installed one
of those 3" wide flat rods, that projected out about 3 inches from the wall.
I folded the valance over the rod till I had the right length I wanted, then
I took it off, pressed it on the fold and put it back up. I didn't make a
casing because it worked fine as it was.
