At first I didn't know what I wanted to do with them or if I even liked the color, but they were only marked $3 dollars for the whole works (what a steal), so I knew I couldn't pass it by. I now have them in my sunny family room as a divider, they add some privacy where our computer desk sits and the T.V, sofa, wicker chairs, plants and other things are on the opposite side of the room a different area. They stand up great and the color even goes with all my wicker and the walls too :) The pie looks great by the way. Cheers, Rene~ Hello,

Your pie looks beautiful. Do you have any secrets for keeping the meringue from weeping? Clever way to use old stuff. Your pie looks beautiful.

You could do it with 2 shutters. Another idea is to use them on the inside of the window, just as you would outside. I have seen that done, very effective.

I had a huge bird cage that filled the middle between each shutter that sat on the console, I like them as an architectural piece. Take a look At Velvet and Linen's dining room makeover, she did something similar with a beautiful tapestry hanging between her shutters. Good luck and enjoy the process,Kathysue I actually have old shutters just hanging on the wall above a console table.
