Installing L-brackets is a quick way to hang your window valances securely. Screw the L-brackets into the wall and position the window valance. Mark the spots wherever you want to screw the L-brackets into the wall and drill your holes.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Window valance
  • L-brackets
  • Drill
  • Pencil
  1. Step 1

    Attach the L-brackets to the wall. Screw them into wall studs or use anchors to secure the L-brackets safely.

  2. Step 2

    Place the window valance in the spot where you'd like to mount it.

  3. Step 3

    Use your pencil to mark the window valance in the spots where the screws will attach to the L-brackets.

  4. Step 4

    Drill small holes in your window valance in the spots you marked in Step 3. Drilling insures the window valance won't split during installation.

  5. Step 5

    Return the window valance to the L-brackets and line up the marks. Screw through the L-brackets and into the window valance. Adjust the fabric of your window valance if necessary.
