Karen,
We are so sorry that the Espresso Beveled Reed Natural Shade you selected does not have a valance. We are updating our information on the website to reflect that it has a grommet instead of a valance.
We would like to offer you a complimentary Home Decorators Collection Espresso Flatweave or Espresso Multi Weave popular espresso natural shade with a valance on Home Depot.com to take its place.
Please contact the Lewis Hyman customer service department at 1-800-860-1677 at your earliest convenience to receive your replacement shade.
Sincerely,
the shadesexpert
