You will be amazed when you take down those large dark curtains that have been up for years. Your room will look huge! Because wooden window shutters are fitted so close to your window you gain extra depth to your room. Matching the colour of the shutters to your window makes them look more fitted and as most windows are white, they provide a white glow when the light bounces from the louvre blades.
Bay windows are the most noticeable. Most curtains are fitted across the window and if they are fitted around the window they are often on large bulky tracks. Shutters are a great neat alternative that will transform your room.
Save time & money - choose white shutters!
If you have wooden floors and furniture don't think you have to match the wooden window shutters to them. Having dark shutters will make your room feel small and dark. The chances of matching the shutters exactly to your furniture are most unlikely, so you end up introducing yet another type of timber and colour into your house. Also, when you want to redecorate, change the colour of the walls, etc, you have an expensive task on your hands, as all require changing.
By having white window shutters you can easily add accessories and change the colour of your room without having to think about changing the shutters. They will always look good from inside and outside, adding value to your home. This makes putting shutters in other rooms, in the future, more straight-forward too.
An important factor when thinking about shutters in several rooms is to consider matching across the whole of the front of the home a complete appearance!
If you just can't decide on layout or how much light you may require, then choose the Tier on Tier' shutters as your preferred option. This gives you the best of both worlds. The top of the shutters will open and close independently from each other like a stable door, so in the summer when you want lots of sun and light you can swing the top shutters back out the way. In the winter, when you want to be cosy and warm, just close them all and tilt the blades to suit. Tier on Tier shutters not only finish-off the window, but they avoid the need to introduce another window dressing at the top section, so saving you money!
