They come in wide range of styles to cover some or all of your window.

But what about matching shutters to your home style? Shutters can work with almost any kind of home, from traditional to contemporary, depending on how many shutter panels you choose to have in each window as well as the slat size, material, color, and tilt rod option you choose. For example, if your home is more traditional, like farmhouse or colonial, you can use narrow shutter panels with small slats and a central tilt rod for a traditional feel that will match your home. You can also go with a more natural or dark wood stain. On the other hand, if your home is contemporary or modern you can use shutters with fewer panels per window and larger slats and these features make the shutters look cleaner and more modern. You can also use a hidden tilt rod for an even more modern appearance. You should also use color to make your shutters suit your style. For example, dark shutters with large slats and minimal panels offer a minimalistic look that will go great with a modern home, but lightly colored shutters in bright whites or creams are more traditional or farmhouse in style. Want to be even more unique? Have fun with your shutter color! This way, you will make sure they’re stylish for you, which is the most important thing.
