How Long Should a Valance Be? The horizontal width of a valance doesn't necessarily have to be an exact figure. While the temptation is to simply measure the width of your window and use that measurement for the valance, this is actually incorrect. Remember that, just as with the curtains, the valance is going to be scrunched up on the curtain rod.When measuring fabric for the width of the valance, multiply the width of the window by 1.5 to 3. Use a number on the low end of that spectrum for stiff fabrics, such as canvas, that won't scrunch very much.easuring Length. You have quite a bit of freedom with the vertical length of your valance, too. There is not an exact ratio to use for valance length, but a good start is around one-sixth to one-quarter the height of the window. However, if your windows are very wide, you can go a bit longer than that.
