What I’m painting….this week!

 

After moving the new

table in to the dining room I

decided to lighten

things up

 and paint one of the grey

shutters…..white!

white shutter 001

 

grey shutters

Here they are before……

white shutter 003

And now after……

white shutter 008

---------

I decided to only hang one

shutter back up……I also only painted one shutter.

 If I tire of the white I can always

hang the other grey shutter back up.

----------

Hope you will consider

following me

on Google Friends Connect

or with the new

 Linky Follower option….

    I like that - I'm into "cleaner and lighter" myself! Still drooling over your dining room table! Linda

    I love both ways actually. It's always fun to make a change though. I know I do that regularly! I like how you used them on the wall like that.

    Hi Des,
    That is a good idea, just to use one at a time, then swap one out for the other. Even though it is white on white, the shutter has the texture and interest!
    Looks fantastic!
    Have a great weekend...
    All the Best,
    Christine

    What a clean, fresh look, Des. I do like the gray, too, so I can see why you kept it. Have a great day!

    I love olden shutters so much and buy every one I find. Just not finding many these days.
    Yours looks great, white or gray.

    Hi Deserae ~ love the shutters; I've been a hunt for a few myself lately. :)
    I followed you via Linky Followers -- my GFC will be gone next week, so I'd love it if you'd follow me via LF instead.
    Happy Saturday!

    Deserae, your shutter is very pretty. Good idea to only hang the one you painted.

    Found your dining-room feature at Savvy and it's just gorgeous, the whole room looks great. I love both shutters, but it's nice to change things up once in a while, isn't it. Love your whole house actually so following you on both gfc and the Linky - really we have no idea what is going to happen, do we !!!

    Good idea to have the versatility of two different colored shutters, Des! I have always loved your dining room. :-)
