I Made My Own Plantation Shutters | Saved a BUNCH of $$$
2 min read
We have a window that let’s in way too much light first thing in the morning, so I decided to make a set of custom Plantation Shutters.
+ Rockler has an incredibly helpful Wizard you can use to design your shutters: https://shutters.rockler.com/?sid=AFN86
+ Rockler also has the jigs and supplies you need to make your shutters a reality: https://www.rockler.com/2-1-2-movable-louver-w-front-control-arm-shutter-jig-and-hardware?sid=AFN86
Big thanks to Rockler for not only sponsoring the show but also having the resources I needed to get the job done.
