Here at Shutters Direct, we’ve got a thing for recycled and repurposed shutters – just take a look at our post about shabby chic shutters. We love seeing old shutters being put to different uses, whether for function or decoration. That’s why we’ve tracked down some of the very best alternative uses for shutters, especially for Christmas! 

1. Old shutters create the perfect solution for displaying Christmas cards. Simply stand it on a shelf or fix it to the wall, and prop your festive cards through the slats.

2. This shutter makes the perfect doorstep decoration this winter! Painted red and with a white Noel stencilled down, it’s simple, effective, and extremely festive.

3. This festive shutter has got to be one of our favourites. The red panel is adorned with sparkly pine cones, greenery and berries, creating a fun alternative to the traditional wreath.

4. A more rustic take on embellished shutters, this piece wouldn’t look out of place in the most stylish of Christmas venues. With a tartan bow, berried branches and a large modern star, it’s the perfect festive shutter!
