Abstract: The present invention is a decorative assembly joint for decorative window treatments. The joint comprises a soft, moldable piece of material, preferably soft foam, that has a least one slit or angular cut on at least one side. These slits, or angular cuts, allows the joint to “move” or “give” to non-perpendicular angles typically found in bay window applications. Additionally, these slits or cuts further allow the joint to follow a curved window application, such as an eyebrow arch window application.
