I am a huge fan of FALL. I love the season and I love the warm colors.
That was pretty much the deciding factor when choosing our interior colors. We have a very open floor plan, very little walls dividing the rooms. That can pose a problem when trying to create warmth. The color we have chosen for most of our living space is called Butter. It is by restoration hardware. We love it, and the nice thing about this color, is just about everything goes with it.
I just love the backdrop here, love Mother nature! THis is why I keep these windows free of window treatments.
This side window brings in a lot of natural light, I need blinds...HERE are my new valances! I love them....New valances are from Walmart! Loves them.....
Of course it led to a mini project...Have you ever seen me paint anything white? NO, but I like it, not sure for how long though.
And here it was black
What glorious Fall indeed! We are at peak now.

awesome! They look fabulous! i think i've looked at those before.
Checks are my favorite, and I love all of your roosters. Stop by my place and see mine sometime. Teresa
Those valances are just perfect in your home but the view out your windows is spectacular. It's like the most perfect fall view ever!
So fun to hear from you again so soon Debbie! I love your new valances but I am biased 'cause I think I have the identical fabric in my house! :-)
Vanessa
You are right the scale on these is much better plus the colors pop and look great with the autumn colors outside...
Hi Debbie, I also saw these at Walmart and thought they were very cute! The valance looks wonderful.
Hugs, Sherry
Welcome back...I hope!!! Always loved your decorating style...and your witty prose!
By the way...I love your view...gorgeous!!!
They look great Debbie! I love the view out of your window too- just beautiful!
She back....chuckle-chuckle... I just love ya. What do they call it, BLoggERs Anoynomus.... I for one could be more thrilled to see your wonderful new curtains in the kitchen. You couldn't have planned it and come up with anything better. They are FAB.... Love with the fall colors out the window too.
Till next time...he-he,
Kate
Debbie, I'm so glad to see you! And I LOVE your valances - in part, because I have the SAME VALANCES in my kitchen!!! I love them, too, love the homey colors but more modern (less country-ish) way they put the treatments together. Glad to know I have good taste - if you have them, they must be good design! Thanks for letting us know what you're up to!
lucky girl!
What a score! Your new valances look great! :)
Awesome!! They are perfect! And Mr. Rooster looks great white. :) (Score on the price too!!)
Love the valances. Perfect colors. So happy to hear from you.
They look terrific. All our leaves are on the ground now. Happy Wednesday! La
Debbie they look wonderful and that is a great price. I love the Better Homes and Gardens stuff at WalMart.
Oh you are so right, they are just perfect. Love the plaid and the scallop. Stunning in your room and I love your room. Hugs, Marty
Your new valances look so great! The colors are so good for your room too. Not to mention it coordinates so well with the fall leaves out the window. Which I am so jealous of!
Those are perfect! What a bargain! I love Walmart. I don't care what anyone says!!! THat was a score! So fun "chatting" last night!
By the way... those fall colors! STUNNING!!!! I am so jealous!!!

Well, first off I am smiling right out loud cuz you posted something...and ya know I been hang dog missing ya! And, SECONDLY, I can't believe you found those suckers at WallyWorld. Are you SURE you were in Walmart? They are absolutely perfect and they look beautiful! I love 'em~ Hugs- Diana
Your valances look great and are so cute! What a deal at ten bucks :)
Your trees are bee u tee full!
Great find, but hope you went back for the TP! I would hate to find that you had to use the valances for something in THAT department!
Your valances look great! Love the colors. Are you back or just teasing us? lol
The valance is perfect there, Debbie. How gorgeous is it out there!...Christine
Well, lo and behold I just get home from the movie and check to see if anyone has linked up since I was gone and yes siree Debbie has. Love the valances and the rooster looks good white. Thanks Deb for joining the party!
Who hoo!!! Yay for Walmart!! I love those curtains!!! I'm thinking about getting the long ones for my kitchen.
I LOVE your curtains Debbie! I am a sucker for checks and I love those colors. They flow so nicely with your living room. Thanks for stopping by my blog and checking out my little desk redo! I always love hearing from you.
The curtains are perfect, Debbie, they match your kitchen colors exactly! And I LOVE the views out your windows. Fall has hit your area nicely!! Hooray again on those valances!
XO,
Jane
very nice!~!
I do like them - Very pretty!
Your view with the Fall colors is so pretty!
Enjoy your evening.
Hi Honey! I don't know how I missed your post! The valances are perfect! I don't believe you thru the home goods aisle as a short cut...NO, admit it! you went there on purpose!!! Now, here is the problem I have with windows with no drapes, I am always sure the boogie man is standing out in the dark staring in the window at me doing who knows what LOL! I am having Debbie withdrawl!
Carol
They look wonderful in the room. Great find, looks beautiful. I miss your perky post! Thanks for sharing.
sandy
Your new valances look fabulous, but the fall color just outside your window is spectacular. What an amazing show of color! ~ sarah
Very pretty, I love it! ~Liz =)
Well worth forgetting the TP! These are perfect, love the colors. And I would leave that back window uncovered too, what a gorgeous view. Kat
Oh Debbie I'm so glad to see you back girl...I really have missed you my friend...and I just got some great faux silk drapes for my daughter at Wally world last month and the price also was so right...Hope you have a GREAT week girl...I bet it will be now to just visit the ones on BA instead of visting them all ha ha!! Hugs and smiles Gl♥ria
Very pretty valances!! I'm so glad you found them!
Your trees are beautiful with all the fall colors.
We took the school kids to Natural Bridge today and had a great time! I remembered you being there not long ago. :)
Yee Haw...back in the saddle girl..love it all!
Those are darn cute. And heck how long are the curtains in your family room? Those are huge. Glad to see you back for however long you want to stay!!!!
WooHoo!! Debbiedoo!! Congratulations on finding the perfect valances for your window! I love it and it looks wonderful! I love your home and love seeing it. Love your little Rooster thingy painted white too! Your Fallness is gorgeous and I'm jealous!!
Good to see you back!
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)
Great news! Isn't it fun to be successful on a shopping trip?!
Love,
Susan and Bentley
xxoo
OH these look wonderful, Debbie! And your fall colors are magnificent...I would just sit in those chairs with a cup of coffee and enjoy!!
I love them and they look great! Just my style also:)
Wally world has really stepped up with their home and garden line. I love everything in it. Good for you.
That's a beautiful view from your dinning room, Debbie, and the valance looks pretty to top it all off..
Those are beautiful! I'd have probably forgot the TP, too :)
Debbie, I love the new valances!!! You are right, just blends the inside and outside seemlessly! I am jealous of all your fall color, this year we didn't really have the fall beauty:( So I felt like I got a little fix looking at your pictures, thank you:) Oh! Too, love the rooster, black, white, next color and the color after that too!! ;)
The valances look fabulous Debbie! I envy you the gorgeous view you have. Every window I look out I see my neighbors up close and personal - hate it! I like the rooster painted white.
~ Tracy
I have seen them at Walmart many times. They look great with your color scheme! Good to see your creativity again!
Beautiful! I love the colors too and that price..Wow! They are a great size. Where OH where would we be without that Better Homes and Garden collection? So nice to NOT see you on here again! Take care sweetie!
You did NOT just say that little stretch of eye candy was only 10 stinkin' bucks?!?!? Holy frijoles, I may have to brave the doors of Wally World. Those are a huge difference!
Hi Debbie!
Those valances look wonderful! I have seen them at Walmart and thought they were gorgeous. I am really liking the Better Homes and Garden lines that Walmart is carrying.
Glad to see you posting!
Love your new valance; great bargain too. Glad you see you posting again. Peggy
Better Homes and Gardens really has great products. These look splendid in that lovely room of yours Debbie. ♥O
Hi :)
che casa meravigliosa che hai !!!
Mi piace molto questi tuoi arredamenti... e la vista dalle finestre e semplicemente meravilgiosa !
Deb, I have TRIED to reply to your SOOOO sweet note on RMS, but it won't let me on, so I came here. You are the sweetest person, I swear. Thanks so much for your encouragement. I know there are some people who must just LURK there waiting for any new post and then rate it a 1 or 2. I have NO CLUE what enjoyment they get out of it???? I don't really care that much but I just happened to see that I only had 2 ratings so I figured that one was a 2 and it got to me. I should NOT let that happen:):) Love ya!!! Pinky
Hi Debbie, So happy to see you found something that you love. I hate skimpy window treatments too, so I can imagine how nice it was to find just what you needed. Your house looks awesome, thanks for sharing with us, you know everyone misses you!
Hugz,
Kim
The new valances look just beautiful in your beautiful home but could I just pop over and sit in those chairs outside under your beautiful trees? I can just feel all my cares drifting away!!
Gorgeous Debbie! They are perfect. What a great price too. Lovely!
Are you back? It's so nice to see you here posting!!!! ~Melissa :)
Lucky day! I love it when I run across things like that. Love your photos! Thanks for stopping by my blog and commenting on my window treatments. I'm a new follower, btw!
PERFECT!! I love when we come across the 'perfect' item for our home, closet or loved one. I always say we were meant to take that 'shortcut' through the specific section of the store, or whereever!
Oh and I can so believe you forgot the T.P. I get 'distracted' and 'off course' very often! So glad I'm not the only one!! :-)
Have a glorious fall day, Debbie!!!!
HUGS,
Coreen
Your new valances look great. Love the fabric, the scalloping and of course those tassles. Well done!
Yep, love those. I've seen them and they are one of my favorites also. Are you going to get the coordinating chair pads???
Beautiful! I am so happy for your "I cant help it I have to share creative moments" you are amazing!!
Your valances look great and your view is just beautiful.
I have the same problem but mine are four glass doors. I finally broke down and made treatments last week. I'll post them later.
It was great to hear from you. Have a wonderful week-end, Annette
They look great! I don't shop at WalMart, but I'm pretty impressed y your find! I really love the little tassels.
Hey girl! So glad you joined the party this week! I gotta tell you that I was pretty excited when I saw your link pop up! :-)
Vanessa
They look fabulous...love the colors! I'm so happy you finally found just what you were looking for :o) Now you will be smiling every time you walk into the room!
Kristen
Those are really pretty valances. I am liking the Better Homes & Garden line at Walmart. Your windows are wonderful and I love that fall view too.
Sherry
Hi Debbie!! I am so glad you shared this at Feathered Nest Friday~ thanks for stopping by and joining in! :) I love those valances in your beautiful room! The colors are just perfect!
I also wanted to say thank you for your comments about my Grammy post too- you are so sweet! :)
Beautiful back drop!
I love them! The style and the checks and the color ~ great job. I like a lot of light too...makes me feel happy.
Thanks for stopping by and for your kind words. This past week has been a challenge.
Enjoy your weekend!
Pat
They're pretty! I find some great stuff at Walmart.
Deb- I love the contrast between the solid and the checked fabric. Just too cute to add to your window. I, too, have un-curtained kitchen windows. Except I have no blinds. Every time that bright sun comes shining in, I try to decide what I'm gonna do. Needless to say, inspiration has not hit yet! Glad to see ya- I was surprised and happy. :-) Thanks for coming for a visit, too!
hugs, Sue
You have a beautiful home and the setting is just gorgeous! Great find on the valances.
I read your post about taking a blogging break and I think so many of us can echo your thoughts. It looks like you have a lot of good friends in the blogger world who enjoy your posts, whether it is every day or once a month.
Enjoy your weekend!
Jane
Every once in a while, I find something fabulous at WalMart. I think the new valance is great. I also like the white paint. I am becoming a new convert to using white instead of black. :) Thanks for visiting my blog, too.
Hi lovely lady. I love your new Valances for your eating area ~~ Your trees are Beautiful also !
Your new curtains look great!! I love them and considered buying them for my family room just 2 weeks ago!!
The only reason that I did not purchase them is that I thought they would cover up a stained glass that I have in the window...but after seeing them actually hanging in your pictures, I might go on Monday and see about purchasing them for our office....they are quite lovely!
Enjoy!
Fondly,
Ann

Hey Debbie, I popped back in hoping I'd see a new post from you. :) Check out my last post. I painted a couple samples in my kitchen. I'd love to know what you think. You and Kim are my go to girls!!
They look really good and I love plaid. I too like to leave my windows opened and you have a beautiful view.
Very pretty! I didn't even know what valences were. Thanks for the little lesson! ;)
Ooooh it looks great, so glad you could find something to go there. I have 2 windows in my home which are awkward sized, it's difficult finding something I like there. Love the Fall Foliage, we are completely bare here now:(
