I have 2 tall wooden shutters, $4 ea. from Habitat for Humanity re-store, hinged & painted barn red. I pull them out at Christmas and slide Christmas cards up through the slats to display them all. The shutters stand on their own so I move them around to a different spot every year.<br />I continue to love what Layla loves!<br />LisaLisa Porterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13784837037604401287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7615489442416541414.post-1155232824906762922009-06-25T08:59:41.137-05:002009-06-25T08:59:41.137-05:00Yes, that has been a favorite photo of mine for so...Yes, that has been a favorite photo of mine for some time.

I have a problem with an awful wall mount air conditioner that you see immediately as you walk into my family room (it is pictured on my very newbie blog). I think shutters could be the answer, but I can only find new ones which are pricey.

After about a month in the garage, I painted them a beautiful blue (mermaid's net), roughed them up and put a black wash on them. I put three together vertically in my hallway, found some old hardware for handles and added black antiqued frames for pictures. I hung an R for our last name from one of the handles. They are gorgeous!! I love them and so does everyone else! My daughter has a ton of artwork so I painted a single shutter pale yellow, lightly distressed it and we painted plain wood clothes pins different colors (blue, pink, white) to display her artwork in our craft room. The yellow shutter is yummy! <br /><br />And Layla...I visited Home Goods today and literally screamed with excitement as I found the wood bins you have in your kitchen! I have a wall in my kitchen that needs alittle TLC...the bins are a match made in heaven. So excited to get them up!<br /><br />Love your blog!!Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15223096334595359231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7615489442416541414.post-1315515990718134542009-06-24T21:45:39.553-05:002009-06-24T21:45:39.553-05:00I have searched all over Mobile, AL for one wooden...I have searched all over Mobile, AL for one wooden shutter.

We're planning to add moulding tho and I'm having mixed feelings about taking the shutters away--they're really pretty! There's another pair on display in my kitchen, a pair in "storage" under my desk, and at least two sets, maybe three, in the garage! Oh, and there's a shutter I painted with Christmas motifs that I put up to hold holiday cards.
