I like the look of plantation shutters. They are very classy, beachy and dramatic. HOWever you cannot completly pull them open to shiny glass can you? I still like the decorative element of drapes at a window. Most window treatment, even lined can be washed easily these days.

We bought inexpensive blinds and I sewed window treatments for all of our windows, thinking that we might replace them with Plantation shutters, but I like coming in and zipping up the blinds and let the light come flooding in.

I can always change my mind.
