Do you want to decorate your house with traditional vintage shutter? Well then here are a number of useful tips for you which can help you provide some enchanting window shutters for your home.
If you truly want to deck up your home with vintage type window shutters then first of all, you need to scrape the old paint from your wooden shutter with the help of sandpaper then cut a piece of plywood in the shapes of strips and fix them to your shutter to hold it in their proper places. Adding a crown molding on top of your shutter will surely give it an age old look.
If you want to give your shutters a distressed look then you can paint them with dark pastel shades and for an innovative yet experimental look clipping a couple of abstracts pictures will help. You can decorate your wooden shutters with shrub or floral borders also to give it an ethnic look.
