Steps:
1. To make the stationary toppers, iron fusible interfacing to the back side of the decorative fabric. Cut the topper to the exact size needed plus an additional three inches to fold over at the top for the rod pocket. Use a straight stitch to secure the pocket in place.
2. Use hot glue and decorative trim to finish the edges, and then hand-stitch a tassel to the center point. Hang each topper in place using a tension rod.
3. To make a fabric-covered cornice, use a miter saw to cut three pieces of 1×6 to the necessary dimensions to build a three-sided frame. Cut the front face out of luan plywood using a circular saw. Attach the frame pieces using nails after drilling pilot holes.
4. Cover the frame with quilt batting to add some cushion and staple it to the inside. Staple the decorative fabric over the batting , being sure to pull it taut first.
5. Staple lining on the inside to cover the rough edges. Secure L-brackets to the wall, and then attach the cornice.
