Default Curtains over Plantation Shutters

My TV set is on the other side of the room where the windows are (with plantation shutters)...since light can come through and I can see the glare on the TV, I was wondering if anyone has curtains over their shutters.

If you want sun/glare control, I would suggest old-fashioned roller shades. You can get them quite thick ~ they will control the sun for a reasonable cost and will roll up out of sight when not wanted. Use an overmount behind the plantation shutters. An inner-mount will let glimmers of light in around the edges.

Thank you but it doesn't look like enough room between the shutters and the window

You can do anything you want but I’ve had 15 homes or condos 6 in the villages , I’ve had plantation shutters in most of them , there is no point in having plantation shutters with curtains you are going for a clean look with shutters . I only watch day time tv during NFL season but most TV’S now made are supposed to cut out the glare I’ve only been told that but from watching games I don’t see a glare

What about anti-glare window film?
