We just had new roof and siding put on our house and I would like to make shutters and paint them black. They would be decorative and not functional. I’m thinking just simple two panel shutters.
Two questions, I was just going to use poplar and paint it. Would that be ok? I also have access to pine but could purchase anything if that would be better. How often would I have to repaint them?
The shutters that were on the house are really light weight aluminum and we’d like more than the 4 that were on there. But I can’t find them anywhere and thought it would be neat to make them myself.
Thanks!
