last modified: 5 years ago

Hey guys, huge dilemma here. I am adding bahama shutters in these circles areas. I just dont know the color that I should do. The front door and brackets are a brown/gray with a black antiquing finish. The house is first star by Sherwin Williams and the roof is black shingle. I am not completely sold on the dark brackets / door To have the bahama shutters automatically powder coated similar. I have ZERO sense of design so was looking for some help here. Thank you in advance!!!

So why bahama shutters at all . I really dislike them but if needed for hurricanes then they are a must other than that I would never have them

I like the look of Bahama Shutters and we are putting them on our house.. the question is what color not IF they should add the shutters. Colors can be difficult. I would hire someone local that is good with color and have them help.
