Pallet Window Shutters

I value sleep. Really.Value.Sleep. I also am an introvert by nature and need my daily refueling alone time, which takes place perfectly during nap time! Each of the kids rooms are dark and quiet and have a fan. To help block out the Montana sun, I made pallet shutters for my son's room. Our Montana sun, during the summer months is up ridiculously early...maybe 4 am? I guess I'm not even sure! I've never been up that early to greet it, "good morning." I do know when it sets, however, because I LOVE spending my evenings in my garden. I sadly say, "good night, sun" around 10 pm.

These help block out the light, so I have a happy, well-rested boy each day and they fit perfectly with the rustic cowboy look I was wanting for his room.

These were very simple to make:

Measured the window. Cut the boards to size. Screwed together. Hung with heavy duty hinges.

Pallet boards are free and wonderful but they are HEAVY!

One more project done!
