 Here’s another fabulous use for a shutter…paint it in your favorite color or give it a crackle or some shabbiness…the skies the limit and then you have a place for all those special little postcards…notes and more!
I snatched this pin up but was unable to find the original link up…but I think you can get enough inspiration from just a picture…give a shutter a paint or stain treatment of your choice…add some cool knobs and there you have it!
 Now here is some drama on the patio! How cool is this… there are succulents growing in the slats…tons of potential with this idea!
Â
 If you are looking for a charming cottage touch any where in your home…one of these will do the trick!

Leave it to HGTV to use a shutter for what I personally think is such a natural…a great table!
Another natural for the shutter…how great is this!
Now if you want to add a bit of charm and drama to your table…how about this…what a cool idea and oh the possibilities!
Now this pin shows us the potential that the simple shutter has in a little hanging array…this looks fabulous!
A Chalkboard Shutter…Love it! Write notes…and it holds mail…cool idea and as always…just take the idea and make it your own!Â
Oh how I wish there was a big picture to show you of this…I could only locate this tiny one…if you have the time…hop over to HGTV
and click onto the video…fast forward to almost the end and you are going to see the most amazing ceiling created with aqua shutters…it is soooooooo cool!
 Â
 Seriously…this was the only picture they had available and I really had to share it with you because the end result is so fabulous!!!! Miss Kari…if you are watching…I can sooooo see you doing this! 🙂
Well this topic will have a part 2 in the future because there are just so many other things you can create and I want to show you them all! So now when you see a lonely shutter sitting on the side of the road waiting to be discarded…save it…save all of its friends and give them NEW life in so many different ways!!!!
See you tonight for the graphic of the day!

Great post! Each one is just so beautiful…I kept reading and saying, “I love that! No, I love THAT…”. I think my favorites are the perfectly chippy aqua shutters as a headboard. Thank you for sharing!

Just wanted to give you the heads up that the wall you credited to Country Living (as they did a feature on it) is actually the work of oliveandlove.com. It’s so gorgeous and I just want her to get proper credit! Love this round-up!
