Thinking of "remodeling" my lower valance

Has anyone tried cutting their lower valance at angles kinda like this I was wondering what it might look like. I dont wanna get rid of it just yet.

Photoshop is new to me so any pics or maybe a quick photoshop would be appreciated.

I just think it would look neat and wanted a few opinions. I mite try and find a junk valance to see what it looks like before I mess up my good one.
