I went for this really simple look, but you can also add in cording, or beading or really any kind of trim you like along the two “seams” in the middle to separate the three sections.
And then there’s always all the cursing that goes on whenever he does a project like this.So it’s given me the impression that changing a light fixture is kind of a difficult thing to do that requires some skill and finesse..
Listen up all you finess-less folks!The other day we were putting up a new porch light in the back and I asked Chris if it was something that I could maybe make a post out of.So he finally showed me how to do it as if he were showing it to all you lovely people (ie.
with no cursing) and it was like a light shone down from above.Well, a light did shine down from above, cause that was kind of the point of the project, but I mean like from really really above.
You know what I mean..
So here I’ve been thinking he’s been doing this big difficult thing for me every time he puts in a new light, going all out of his way and doing me a big favor... 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.
They look OK from a distance, but they really bugged us.Also, white houses with dark green shutters are really popular around here and we didn’t want to be “one of the green houses” on our street anymore.. And now here’s how that window looks with new, slightly less fake-looking DIY shutters!.
