Hardwood Shutters – Enhance Your Already Beautiful St Louis Home
Upgrade Your Windows with the Elegance and Durability of Hardwood Shutters
With so many beautiful windows in today’s homes, it’s easy to become confused out how to dress them. On the one hand, you need privacy, especially after dark, but on the other, you don’t want to detract from the beauty of the window’s architecture, whether it’s a graceful arched window or a modern bay. In some cases, it’s worry over obscuring a view of mountains, rural fields, a lake or the ocean that’s most concerning. You don’t want to lose an inch of that incredible vista you’re lucky enough to have. The number one solution used time and again by design professionals is hardwood shutters. Why hardwood shutters? One look at their many benefits says it all.
Privacy and Unobscured Viewing in One Product
When shutters are fully opened, they allow for maximum light and a perfectly clear view of the outdoors. Even the most expensive, luxurious pair of draperies can’t make that claim.
The Window is Still the Star Attraction
Because custom wood shutters mount on the inside the window frame, they don’t detract from the window’s architecture, letting the window be the main focus.
Unparalleled Versatility
A beautiful wood shutter is traditional, classic and modern all at the same time, blending seamlessly with a room’s decor and atmosphere, whether it’s minimalist, traditional, country, rustic or somewhere in between. That’s one of the reasons they’re a favorite of interior designers everywhere. They’re beautiful enough to embellish a window on their own, but they’ll be just as attractive with curtains, a valance or draperies layered on top of them. And because they’re custom-made for your window, they always look like a ‘match made in heaven’ for the window they adorn.
Beauty + Quality + Longevity
Hardwood shutters are incredibly warm, rich and beautiful, and their hardwood construction makes for the best quality money can buy, ensuring years of service and enduring beauty.
Creating Flow and Continuity
Many homeowners today prefer an open floor plan for an expansive-looking interior and an easy flow from one living area to another, among other things. As appealing as they are, though, an open floor plans require a certain degree of continuity in wall color, flooring and window dressing to maintain a flowing, cohesive look. Hardwood shutters work in every functional space and create a uniform look in your open floor plan.
Curb Appeal
From the outside, hardwood shutters provide the same continuity as they do inside the home, creating a uniform look that doesn’t detract from the home the way curtains and window treatments that change from one set of windows to another can. They look as though they’re as much a part of the architecture of the house as any of its exterior components do.
Choose the Finish
Hardwood shutters come in an incredible variety of stain colors, as well as white or off-white, so you can easily coordinate them with your furnishings and personal tastes — yet another way they are truly customized to your individual needs and preferences.
Increased Home Value
If you’ve ever moved from one home to the next, you know how potentially useless your existing window treatment can suddenly become, when you realize that they probably won’t be usable in your new home because of different window sizes. You won’t have that problem with hardwood shutters because they’re customized to be integral to your house, and will remain with the home when you sell it, thus eliminating the need for the new owners to worry about outfitting their new home with window treatments. The bottom line is that hardwood shutters become another feature that help sell your house, increasing its value to potential buyers.

I used Sunshine Drapery for all of the window treatments of my new house. They installed plantation shutters and will soon be installing the remainder of the shades and curtains. Everyone I have interacted with was very pleasant and helpful. The designer was wonderful. The in home consultation was thorough... I love the way my house looks and I think you will too!
Katelin
The first appointment with the designer was made to fit my schedule. She was punctual, professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. She didn’t try to oversell me, which I appreciated. While she was at my home, she gave me several good tips to help us when we list our home for sale. The window treatment was delivered on time, and installation was quick and beautifully.
Lynne
Very professional, quick to respond, understood what I wanted and gave excellent advice. My drapes are beautiful and I am impressed. I received a response to my initial email within minutes (on a Sunday!), got an appointment quickly and drapes were delivered and installed when promised. I was very comfortable with them in my home. I highly recommend Sunshine
UC
My decorator came to my home, made me feel at ease, and listened well to what I did and did not want. She showed me some really neat alternatives and demonstrated how they would look using her ipad. I have used Sunshine several times over the years and they have demonstrated the ability to change with the times as I was needing something “different”. I will continually use them and highly recommend the in home consultation services as they do not charge to come out and are flexible...
Renee
Been a customer since 1996. The quality and customer service have continued to be excellent over the years. I have never had buyer’s remorse after purchasing from Sunshine. They stand behind their products and services. I have always felt they wanted me to be a happy and satisfied customer.
Toni
The decorator helped me design custom drapes in my combined kitchen/living room area, and custom crescent shaped valances for my great room. ...I have to say, she is the most fun person to work with! Fun to chat with, knowledgeable, flexible, detailed, and, oh, so, thorough. She was patient when I was having a hard time deciding, she was conscientious about our budget, as well, and, I really appreciated that. I loved working with her, and am enjoying our new window treatments!
Deb
The draperies were everything I had hoped for — beautifully made, hang perfectly and look fantastic. The quality is excellent and I’m sure these will look great for many years to come. Most definitely worth the investment. Plus the service they provide is also great. The guys that installed my draperies were professionals. They both told me they have worked for Sunshine for many years and that tells me a lot about a company.
Susie
I fully appreciate the attention, courtesy, professionalism and kindness throughout two different projects. Not only was my designer receptive to my expectations, she presented wonderful ideas and candid critiques to ensure that the projects went smoothly and captured my aesthetic vision.
Vita
Their designer came to the house... on our schedule. We also went to their store to see the blinds we wanted on display. Once we placed the order, the blinds came in very quickly and were professionally installed. They exceeded our expectations and were more than fair on the pricing. I would recommend this company to anyone.
Michael
The designer must have shown me hundreds of options and with her expertise I found the perfect fabric for my drapes. Sunshine is a professional, respectful company, who puts their customer’s needs first. It was a delight working with them
D.
We highly recommend Sunshine Drapery. We used them 30+ years ago... and recently to install shutters and blinds. Our new shutters match our crown molding perfectly and keep noise out so well on our busy road.
Ingrid
I use Sunshine for all my window dressings. They are stellar from sales to install... Perfect example of excellence in how a company should take care of your needs. The products they provide are exceptional quality. If you treasure in how you are cared for, choose Sunshine. They have earned my five stars.
Patty
Every bit of our experience was excellent. The designer came to our home and helped us with style of blinds and color. We had priced several other stores and the price was better for the same products. Since the Hunter-Douglas blinds have been up in our bedroom, we are no longer getting up at 5:30 am with the sunrise. They are functional and beautiful.
Scott & Andrea
We had a designer come out to help us with custom bedding, throw pillows and 3 small upholstery projects. She was great - patient and helped us come up with ideas and helped us make sure everything would work. When we received the items, we were even more happy! All the custom pieces fit perfectly and pulled the room together in a way we could never have imagined on our own.
Subie
I have been a customer since 2010. They are the best in the business. It has been a pleasure to work with the designer and the installer. You pay for what you get in life and I would highly recommend this company for your interior windows. Our home looks like a showplace because of working with Sunshine Drapery.
Tyler
We could not be more happy with the our purchase of Plantation Shutters we had installed throughout our new home. From the options the designer was able to offer, to the extreme care that the installer took while in our home, was perfect. Thank you for creating a culture in your company of great care and customer service. We will be back again.
