Shutter/plantation blinds

Hi
I’m thinking of having these blinds in the front of the house. Trouble is I like the white ones and my windows are the dark UPVC, has anyone has these fitted to their windows who have the same colour as me? Just wondered if they look right. They look lovely on white windows...

I can’t answer your question but you can get your window frames repainted. You can buy the special paint or there are services which offer it.

I have them at the front of my house and have dark stained windows. I have painted the windows inside to white but they’re still dark from the outside and look fine. Let me try and find a photo

Thank you that would be great.
I have actually just ordered some samples, white, ivory and taupe just to see if I like them.

My Windows are Brown outside and white inside. We have plantation shutters in the front room. Look nice in my opinion. Can send photo if it would help.

Be careful who you order from. Ended up taking 5 months to get ours, several slats were broken, long story short, I got fill refund and DH fixed them. xx

Do the let in a lot of light when open? I know you only have half windows so may be be so relevant for your house. We have full bay windows (floor to ceiling bay).

Forgot to say I like them!😊
