We currently have plastic shutters on the front of the house that are 14"x58". SWMBO wants them replaced with wooden raised panel shutters. I know the basic joinery needed and I figure I can use red cedar as that should stain up nicely to match the mahogany front door. The front door is 3/4 stained glass with one raised wooden panel at the bottom.
My question is; are there any design standards for raised panel shutters. I'm unsure how many rails and panels to use and what their dimensions should be. I want this to look good for the wifey.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
