If you have an awkward window like the long, narrow one in Michelle’s bathroom, made-to-fit shutters could be the solution
Forget mildew-attracting curtains, plantation-style shutters are a more practical choice for bathrooms. Made-to measure for a precise fit, they can be bought online or from specialists who will also fit.
Q Why are shutters a good choice for bathrooms?
They’re easy to clean – a damp cloth will do – and offer privacy without having to be fully closed. Unlike fabric window treatments, they won’t fade in direct sunlight. They come in a range of colours and even custom shades that can be matched to your scheme.
