Custom Hand-Built Cedar Shutters

Detail shot: Client was going for a rustic/medeival look, which we achieved by lightly sanding the rough-sawn texture, torching knots/imprefections to highlight and contrast, and applying two coats of stain/sealer. Client opted for exterior mount (non-operable) shutters, which are secured to the brick with masonry fasteners at the corners, and countersunk below the face of the shutter. Cedar plugs (visible in upper right corner) are then glued in place over the fastener head, and chiseled/sanded smooth before touch-up stain is applied.
