Raise Blind and Remove Valance

What happens here

Begin by raising the horizontal blind all the way up to its fully retracted position. This will give you better access to the mounting hardware. Next, identify the valance (the decorative front piece) which is typically attached with small clips. Apply gentle pressure to these clips, pushing them towards the window, to release the valance. Be very careful during this step, as these plastic clips can become brittle over time due to sun exposure and may break easily. If they do break, replacements are available at hardware stores like Home Depot.

Goal: Gain access to mounting hardware by raising the blind and detaching the valance.
