A Home For The Shutter

Welcome~~

It is a rainy day  and actually I am serious, it IS raining here in So Cal. My little primroses already seem to be getting bigger and brighter. It is amazing the effect natural water has on the garden. LOVING THIS. 
For all of you who have been reading my blog, you know that I found a fabulous chippy, white shutter a few weeks ago and I had no idea where it was going to go. It was one of those purchases that you buy and then find the space for it. It was just too fantastic to pass up. After much deliberating and moving it from here to there, it found a home.
It is now nestled in my living room. 
I love the way it looks up against my creamy walls
I think it is the perfect compliment to my chippy, blue hutch. At first, I wasn't sure if it seemed too crowded, but the more I look at it each day, the more that I love it.
What do you think????

Welcome to all of my new followers and thanks to everyone for all of the sweet comments. I read them all and love it. I showed my son all the nice comments about his sock monkey that he made me:)

    Your shutter looks very nice in this room and fits right it. The blue and cream color scheme is so pretty.

    Isn't the rain wonderful...it just makes everything look healthier and so lush. Your Primroses are going to love it!

    I think shutters propped against the wall look good every where. It actually looks great next to your taller blue cupboard, which is also wonderful!

    I love chippy old shutters, and yours looks perfect in your living room! You could always turn the slats so they face up, then tuck old black & white photos in for a fun touch!! I am totally in love with your blue hutch, btw!

    I also have beautiful shutters and window shades installed in my house. I just love how shutters improve the architecture of a house and of course, it is a good way to protect your house from the heat. Your idea is really good as well and I might find some good shutters here and use it as a decor as well.
