Show-Case Shutters is pleased to announce the Homestead Collection – unique, hand-crafted plantation shutters, are now available.
Barn wood Shutters
It is a request we have heard many times: “Can you make a barn wood shutter?” The answer, in short is, “not very well”. Distressed barn wood is just that – distressed. Decades old, the material at one time had better days. The process of turning such material into a shutter is a game of splinters.
That’s when owner, Shan Carroll, decided to make a faux distressed barn wood from one of Show-Case Shutter’s premium shutters.
The process is an eight-step process that is extremely time-consuming. Alder is the wood of choice for this finish. A wood that, once finished, is incredible for this shutter. Especially after the knot holes are individually sanded out.
Driftwood Shutters
Our driftwood shutter is actually the white version of the “smoke” colored barn wood shutter. These two shutters are our standard distressed barn wood finishes. However, we can custom stain any color the client needs.
Rustic Shutters
This shutter is finished using premium basswood. In general, manufacturers look for smooth basswood for their stain grade – we look for knotty bass for this finish. In the end the stained product is the perfect mix for those beautiful timber frame homes that are nestled back in the mountains.
Distressed Deco Shutters
This finish has that 1950’s era kitchen feel that is hard to get. This hand finished product includes custom glazing and imperfection recreation. The end product is perfect for that hard to match project.
Engraved Raised Panel Shutters
Finally, because of our custom capabilities, we also have the equipment for custom engraving! This is perfect for that sports fan that wants their team’s logo forever etched into their man cave shutters. How about your initials in the dividing doors hanging in your formal room? If you can dream it, we can do it!
These five offerings make up the Homestead Collection which is now available at all levels of sale. Contact David Tate at (540)206-7479.
