Bathrooms are one room in your house in which it is preferable to have privacy. Your bathroom window may not always have opaque glass or glass block and instead the window may have clear glass.
Shutters for bathroom windows therefore present the ideal window treatment to both allow light into the bathroom but, by virtue of the shutters moveable louvers, you can angle the louvers for privacy.
You can see on this bathroom window how good plantation shutters look. This photo shows a single large panel. In reality, people don't really open the shutter panel but as detailed will tilt the slat. Therefore going with a wide panel allows more light to come into the room, as opposed to lots of small, narrow panels which reduces the light entering the room. Of course, the shutter is still hinged to open when you need to access the window to clean it or open the window.
This bathroom has the shutter installed inside the recess. That way, you can still place items on the the window sill.
At The Shutter Store we custom make both wood and faux wood shutters for every room in your house, not only the bathroom! These shutters have 3 1/2" louvers with hidden tilt rods. They are made from poplar wood which is kiln dried and can be installed in a bathroom without problem.
