Design to Value: Shaping a Better Built Environment | Martin Wood

If you’re like most people and only have time to give it a quick once-over-when-it-needs-it during most of the year, this “Fall Cleaning” time is the perfect time to get to those parts of the room that you don’t normally get a chance to clean.

And these shutters are!.We’ve just installed one set so far on our house, but already I can see what a difference they make.

We have a total of 8 shuttered windows on our house, so doing the rest of them won’t be a huge project and we should be able to show you the whole before and after fairly soon!For now though, let’s focus on the one set on the windows by the deck.We recently remodeled and stained our deck.

You can read all about that and see the full before and after... Here’s our deck with the old green shutters.

We still have a bit of work to do on that area but it really does look a million times better back there..

The problem with these shutters is that they’re built right into the siding so they look really really fake.To enter the giveaway, just fill out the rafflecopter form below and if you win, you get to pick any rug pad that you want from.
