As a homeowner you probably realize that repairing and replacing of your old and worn out windows can be an expensive proposition -- a single window unit may cost you hundreds of dollars, and to replace all of your homes' windows may very well run you thousands! However, many smart homeowners have turned to an economical alternative: interior wood shutters. These shutters add a decorative flair to any home, and are also very effective in shielding old and worn out windows from view --
A great place to get interior wood shutters is blinds express.com. One of the products that they sell is called their Norman Normandy Real Basswood Painted Shutter. These interior wood shutters are individually handcrafted and manufactured from select hardwoods. They are priced at around $17 per square foot -- you can completely customize the appearance of these shutters, everything from the center stile, to the type of tilt bar (visible or invisible), the color of the hinges, and the height and width and color. With all of these options, you are sure to be able to create a set of interior wood shutters that will give a totally unique look to any room in your house.
Another good place to purchase interior wood shutters is JCPenney. They offer them for sale -- they are imported from China and measure 16" x 36". They are painted and hand rubbed -- so they will give a slightly worn appearance. The normal list price on these interior wood shutters is $159 a pair.
Another good place to purchase interior wood shutters is net shutters.com. They sell a pair of Normandy wood shutters in dozens of different colors, and they are constructed from natural hardwood with a lacquer coated finish applied. These natural wood interior shutters in a number of different types of mounting configurations: L-frame, Z-frame, hidden hanging strips, Deco frame -- and you can also order these interior wood shutters in a 2-panel construction up to a 6-panel construction. These interior wood shutters can also be ordered primed for painting, so you can apply your own stain, varnish or paint.
As well, I like the interior wood shutters offered by Blinds.com. Their traditional 1 1/4" wood shutters can be purchased either finished or unfinished. These interior wood shutters have a louver size of 1 1/4", and are constructed from solid Poplar. They can be mounted inside or outside of your window area, and install quickly and easily with side mounting strips.
If you are looking for interior wood shutters, you should also consider the possibility of using a wooden folding shutter screen -- I know of a good one, which you can purchase from Living Comforts. This wooden shutter is 72" x 55" -- it is constructed in three panels, which are hinged so that they can be arranged in any way you desire in your room. This interior wood shutter screen is available in three different colors: brown, red and white. The list price on this item is just under $380.
Finally, I have a nice set of louvered interior wood shutters, manufactured by Houseworks. These are sold in pairs, and are made from solid wood. The price? Only $3.26! Why so low? Because, friends, these are miniature interior wood shutters -- designed to be used in the construction of miniature houses! Yes, they are only 1.5 inches by 11 5/16" by 1/8" in size -- after all, while you're fixing up your home, you don't want to forget your daughter or granddaughters dollhouse!
