Ways to repurpose old shutters

One of my favorite things to repurpose is shutters. They’re the sort of thing that’s easy to find just about everywhere and there are so many different things you can do with them! From wall art to tables and benches, the possibilities are endless. Next time you see one on the side of the road, at the flea market or at a yard sale, pick it up so you can use it for one of these great ideas.

  2. Being a Brit now in Alabama, I live speaking my mind. Your ideas with shutters are just fabulous, can’t wait ti do one, I have shutters I have saved for years. Now I have a real use for them!! Thank you so much, and cheers to enjoying a cocktail while inventing/re-purposing or crafting!! You are my kinda gal, although I tend to do more with knitting and sewing projects, I love to make neat crafts from other things, or re-paint to make something look grand.
