Shutters and Stuff

It’s my mother’s birthday. Once you get to a certain age, I think that gifts like flowers and picture frames and books of poetry only mean so much. After all, I know my mother has year’s worth of those kins of gifts sitting around on shelves. Well, not the fresh flowers, but there are many silk arrangement s in her house that we have given her over the years.

So, I got my mom exterior shutters. She lives in a cute ranch style home here in Florida. Most of the houses around here look so very much alike. They are generally one storey, stucco, with tile roofs. There is little variety, despite the different builders and colors. So, since mom recently has traditional tiles put on the roof and is thinking of having a southern style front porch added to the house, I got her shutter to give the house more of a cottage look.

I do not have them installed yet, but it’s going to make the house look so cute!
