I just have to say how beautiful the 2" faux wood blinds look in my kitchen. They went up very easily and the wood valance is beautiful. One word of advice, the valances were a little too short to cover the front of the inside brackets so I would add another inch or so.

I'm sorry that your valance does not cover the brackets. I will contact you to see what we can do to get you a new valance.
There are 2 normal reasons that a valance doesn't cover the installation brackets on an inside mount:
1. The top width of the window is wider than the center and bottom width measurements. The valance width should be 1/8 inch less than the ordered width. If the top is wider, the valance can be a little short because we ask you to use the smallest of the 3 width measurements to order your blinds. This usually only is visible if the top width is more than 1/4 inch wider.
2. The window width is wrong on the order. This can be caused because the window was not measured correctly or entered correctly on the order or you didn't order using the actual window opening width.
All of our factories (and all factories that manufacture blinds for the U.S.) will make a width deduction when making inside mount blinds. If you take a deduction or order the width of your existing blinds, you may still be able to use the blinds (although they won't be a perfect fit) but the valance will always be too short.
