Wide Window London Shade
Sewn to order in our Alabama studio — nearly any color, size, or detail can be changed, most at no extra charge. Don't see what you need as an option? Leave a note at checkout: a different color, a different skirt drop, or mini crib sizing.
A London shade is the swag a formal dining room used to have — soft folds drawn up at the sides, sitting exactly where you set them. This one is decorative rather than functional: split slip rings on the back let you set the length once, and it stays there.
Made in our Alabama studio as a rod pocket shade, lined with drapery lining, in any of our cotton fabrics — or send us your own fabric and trims and we will make it in those.
Details:
- Sized for a single, double or triple window — select your size when you order
- Rod pocket decorative shade, lined with drapery lining
- Made in any of our signature cotton fabrics, or in fabric and trims you supply
- Choose your hem finish: self ruffle, pleated tailored trim, or tassel fringe
- Split slip rings on the back set and reset the hanging length
- Finished length when flat: 58"–60"
- Shades shown: a 37" kitchen window, and a 54" dining window made with a double swag
- Non-functional — these are decorative shades and do not raise and lower
Good to Know:
- For windows over 54" wide, or windows with uneven splits, message us before ordering and we will walk you through measuring
Care: Spot clean if needed.
Made to Order: Sewn when you order, in our Alabama studio.
A standard crib mattress is 28" × 52", and our pieces are cut to match it — 52" long rail covers, 28" short rail covers, and fitted sheets sized to that mattress. If your crib takes a standard mattress, no measuring is needed.
Crib skirt drops — farmhouse skirts are 20", ruffled skirts are 22". To find your drop, measure from just under the mattress support straight down toward the floor. Want a different length? Tell us your measurement at checkout and we'll make it to that, at no extra charge.
Rail cover drape — approximately 20" down each side of the rail, inside and out.
Mini cribs — sheets fit a 24" × 38" mattress, and most pieces can be made in mini sizing on request.
Antique, imported, or non-standard crib? Send us your measurements — everything is cut to order.
Every piece is made from 100% cotton sourced from American mills — no synthetic blends, no flame-retardant treatments, no chemical finishes.
Pre-washed before we cut. Every yard is washed and dried in our studio before a single piece is cut, so your bedding arrives already soft and won't shrink on you at home. That relaxed, lived-in texture is the washed cotton at work — and it irons or steams to a crisp finish if you prefer that look.
Washing — machine wash cold on gentle, separately. Skip bleach and fabric softener; both break down natural cotton over time.
Drying — tumble dry on medium, separately. A quick toss in the dryer is the easiest way to release wrinkles between uses.
Ironing — optional, on medium heat. Avoid starch sprays. A handheld steamer works well too.
Every piece is sewn to order in our Alabama studio, so nearly every detail can be changed.
Color changes — swap any color on any product: ruffles, cording, accents, bows, ties, or the body of the piece itself. Mix and match across a set however you like. Most color changes are free of charge.
Monograms and personalization — add initials, a name, or a meaningful date, with your choice of font and thread color. $30 per piece.
Style and sizing — prefer a tailored look without ruffles? Need mini crib sizing? Both are available on request.
