Sometimes, a little change is all you need.
My youngest son has outgrown teddy bears and embraced Ugly Dolls. So, I thought it was about time we traded in the shades that went with this nursery decor and found something that matched his current bedding and would be appropriate as he grows older.
KravetSmart to the rescue. This geometric blue and white print plays well with the oversized houndstooth pillows and the Stark greek-key rug. Similar but not the same.
Now, the Ugly Dolls have it made in the shade! Do you get a lift when you make a small change?

Love the shade Elizabeth, so pretty yet masculine and mature. Lucky Ugly dolls to have such a pretty resting place:)
gorgeous! Sometimes the smallest changes pack the most punch.
Love the shades! He has such a fun room. It looks like the perfect spot to cozy up. How lucky is he to have such a cool Mom?!! xo
It's a wonderful room Elizabeth and I love the soft blue. I've never seen an ugly doll before but they're fun.
Enjoy your day!

I like it a lot. It is very pulled together without being at all fussy or matchy-matchy. And that rug! Terrific!
Shade looks great! Laughing at the ugly dolls - hadn't seen them before!

Well, you certainly gave those ugly dolls a pretty shady spot. So not ugly, so very pretty!

Love the light fixture!
Please don't tell me that your son makes his own bed or I'll be very embarassed for mine! Love the pattern play going on in his room and thumbs up for Ugly Dolls!

Looks great - lovely update. Clearly you have a different variety of boy than I do - a white bedspread would never have worked in our house!! Lucky you!
Love the room. I'm from Westchester. Can you share your resource for the shade?
Thank you.

I really have to get on the band wagon with monograms... even the dolls are a step ahead of me! This looks like a great place to just crawl up and take a long winter's nap! Gorgeous.
Thank you for shairng.... enjoy your day
wonderful job, elizabeth. the room looks great. I'm a big ugly doll fan myself - mine's orange! donna
OMG when I first read this, I thought it said "Kmart"....then I went to click the link to see what I've been missing and saw that it is not in fact from Kmart! I was all excited, too :) It looks GREAT

Those Ugly Dolls crack me up! I love the fabric and how it coordinates with the others in the room!
What a wonderful room, and the shade is a perfect addition. Great fabrics - loving the houndstooth, too!!
Your son's room is so chic..as in, I would happily move in...ugly dolls and all!:)
Hi Elle (in Westchester!),
I had the shades custom made with the help of Michele Green at The Open House in Rye. If you like the fabric, click on the link in the article that says KravetSmart and it will take you to the tear sheet for the material.
Hope that helps!!

Elizabeth, his room is so cute! LOVE that monogram pattern! He's so lucky to have a mom like you!
