  1. I love this post. I am a big ‘throw open the shutters’ person. I’m constantly amazed by the variety of shutters as well. Thanks Janine xx

    • Enough variety to last a lifetime Cathy, exactly. Just like so many other things in Italy. I need no other place! xx

    • Yes, but which shade of green? Teal is big this season I see….x

  2. I love the shutters all over Italy. I want to put them on my house. Well, really I want to wake up in Italy and throw open the shutters!

    • Much better the second option Janie. Shutters are all the more beautiful with Italy on the other side ;-) xox

    Your talent for clever titles never ceases to impress and amuse! I love the top image with all the pastel tones. Also the next with the seductive umber-coloured building, the colour of which originated, of course, in Umbria!!

    • Lovely link back Robyn. You have a very Umbrian sensibility. Thank you so much for your sweet comment too. See you soon in Perugia I know! xx

    • Thank you so much. Shutters are a bit of a fascination for me!

    All of the shuttering and shuddering we do in life… and like a true Romantic, I know that the world–at least mine and yours–understands. Shadows, pastels… you have such a good eye for composition and design, Janine. It is a treat to view how and what you see. ~ Lily

    • Huge thanks to you for a comment that just made my day Lily. Italy brings out so much emotion in just about everyone I think. It’s my pleasure to share it with people who get the picture. x

    • Grazie. Shutters have such subtle colours too. It’s the light as much as the paint of course!
