The Garden Frog with C Renee on Sep 02, 2013It would help if we had a pic... If you are going to make your own shutters then think about cutting out a design such as a circle, heart, your initial, or any other design and let the color of the house shine through? Paint the shutters a contrasting color from the house and trim so that they can stand out. Black or a dark stain would be good as it would also ground your house a bit. Depending upon the look you want a cottage type shutter. Shutters could be stained dark and add black wrought iron accents. You want the shutters to compliment your home. http://www.sashuttermill.com/SAShuttermill_homepage.html check out this site to get ideas. Good luck!Helpful Reply

Linda Dann on Sep 02, 2013Is that roof white??? I would go with some historic colored grey brown for shutters and then a different color for door- If you have stonework around- try and pick up some color from the stones- all I've read say shutters ought to be a different color from the door- The door could be an evergreen- or bright stain.Helpful Reply
