If my shutters were hair they would be sideburns.

It's true. My house had sideburns.

 

Brian insisted that he never noticed them, but they drove me crazy. I mean...not only are sideburns uncool on a house...but they are so four decades ago.

I finally put my foot down and insisted on a trim. Well obviously we couldn't trim them, but we did do a total shave and transplant. Thanks to Architectural Depot we were able to get new shutters for the whole house that actually fit the windows.

Here's the new do...


If I'm going to continue with the annoying hair metaphors I must tell you that now that we replaced the shutters the house needs a new dye job. Yep. Those places that were once hidden by sideburns are now a different color than the surrounding paint.

Isn't that the way it goes. One project leads to another in a never ending cycle.
