Absurd, I know.
I have an inkling for English...(possibly french) cottage houses. (Sigh,...I envision roses, lavender...just flowers in general - greeting you as make your way into "Cottagey Cuteness").
Just because our House will never be a Cottage, doesn't mean it cant have some extra dressing!
Well, I tried to look up prices for shutters on the inter-net to no avail, and even on trade-me. There was only one entry, but it was too far away. I even tried the demo yard, still none, Nada.
While I was handling my old kitchen cupboard doors...I started thinking...well these look like the deal, I would have to saw them in half, but hey presto, a few coats of paint -they would do!
So I sawed them...oh dear, I didn't get it right even after measuring (eek) so my pretties are a bit uneven, but still rather quaint. I don't have the time or money to learn every skill that I would like to...but there are some thing's I can attempt. Of course you do everything within reason..ie the electrical stuff I will leave for the electrician!
My Hubby was only too happy to use his new drill, hoping the novelty will not wear off anytime soon!

| Oh, cutsie! Hopefully those roses will off-set them &bloom beautifully! |
Ok, a bit kitsch but the white roses, sigh!
Other than that, Sunday what a day, its God's day. Fellowship, rest, food, ...mmm!
Hope your upcoming week is AWESOME,
Maybe in some small way Ive encouraged some ingenuity, I hope so!
God bless
