Sure, the bathroom looks pretty good with just a quick daily or weekly cleaning, but if you really get into all the nooks and crannies of the room, that’s when you’ll really see it shine!
Also, white houses with dark green shutters are really popular around here and we didn’t want to be “one of the green houses” on our street anymore.. And now here’s how that window looks with new, slightly less fake-looking DIY shutters!.Just so much nicer, right?.
Here’s how we made them in like 5 minutes flat!.Chris picked up some 1×12 rough cut pine.The roughness of it gives it extra farmhousey appeal!
We cut it down into 5″ strips.You can do any size you like, we just went with a size that would cover up our existing shutters.
We made our shutters 3 boards wide and then put one board across the top and the bottom for a classic look.. Then we clamped them all together and secured it all with a few screws.. We cut a couple of little measury pieces to put up against the top and bottom cross pieces so we could make sure they were the same distance from the ends on both sides.
We didn’t want any shifting to happen while we were adding the screws!.But I want them to!
I have glass-cleaning needs!.So, what’s the deal with these things?
Are they actually as good as they’re marketed to be or are you better off just using paper towels or newspaper?.Well.. On one recent cleaning adventure, the stars aligned and everything fell into place and the secret was revealed to me!.
