Bed skirt

[Cherylle]

Does anyone know where I can get a bed skirt/valance custom made for a reasonable amount?

I have a King Single with a trundle mattress underneath, so the standard size valance isn't long enough to cover the whole of the frame and it looks awful.

Id just be asking your local little seamstress place (the ones that take up trouser hems etc). Its such a simple thing to sew if you can take a photo of what you want, provide the measurements and the fabric.

Your post made me think of how totally unsuccessful I have been at getting a nice white queen bed valance. Over the past couple of years I've had a cotton pleated one & a cotton quilted one (they were both too short in bed length) & now have a quilted microfiber 'bed wrap', before putting it on the bed it was the nicest looking one I'd seen but it looks horrible as it is very baggy & wrinkly so I'm not really one to recommend anything!

Anyway I've just googled to see what other options may be available online & the second link I clicked came up with a king single so thought I'd give you the link http://shop.thehousequeen.com.au/sto...-sheridan.html

I've also just found this http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/WHITE-Qui...item5647f981a3, it is different from the bed wrap I have as both edges are elasticated but I'm not sure how it would go with a trundle bed.
