We think we can use the original hardware for the bi-fold doors, attach them to the wall and have them open and close just like they would on a closet. Then cover the hardware up with moulding. But we haven't gotten that far. I used fake hinges on the functional ones because the decorative ones interfered. <br />Hope that explains it well!<br />Thanks for visiting!Lynda Brandlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00904166933638843933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1301871774434544967.post-88151289193382489362015-05-13T14:06:21.619-04:002015-05-13T14:06:21.619-04:00Aw, thank you, Brenna!

Right now I have dropcloth drapes, and they are ok, but hummm, I think your shutters are amazing.<br />So, just to clarify, you used regular hinges to attach to the wall for use, and "fake" hinges for looks?<br />Your windows are beautiful and as lovely as those drapes were, those shutters are vastly superior.

When it was delivered my husband had it set in place. The moment I walked in the room I knew I'd made a mistake. <br />Last week I sent it out to be recovered deciding that life is too short to live with something that bothers you every time you look at it. <br />I was so taken with your shutters the first time I saw them and enjoyed your posting about the process. Have you considered buying the hinges you need and having them cut so that only the part you need can be used to decorate the door. Just an idea. <br /><br /><br />Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11970736369034996515noreply@blogger.com
