Shutters and Shakes
2. Simple Board-and-Batten Shutters
Shutters crafted from rough-sawn Western red cedar planks are held together with hand-forged-looking strap hinges. Complete
with similar shutter dogs, these operable panels are anything but outdated. Great sources for them are timberlane.com and vixenhill.com.
3. Poplar-Bark Shakes
The use of poplar-bark shakes is about as ecologically conscious as it gets. Hand-peeled and cut on-site from harvested tulip
poplars, this siding choice creates the illusion that the cottage sprouted and grew from the land, just like the surrounding
trees. Go to poplarbarksiding.com.
