I like them with, just adds that little extra and with the nails it looks complete.

I love you and Rae together on these videos, she can be herself without the stress .

I love the nails on the shutters! The cross brace is fine, either way. But they need to be there!

If you want the cross braces to go the opposite way, put the right on the left and vice versa. That will leave the braces in their original spot.

They both go the same direction so changing sides wouldn't matter? 180 would work though as long as the cut works with it where it lines up with the horizontal brace. They're not like you would have on double gates where they're opposite of eachother if you look at them, they're all on the same way by the looks of it so all run top left to bottom right as shown from our view.

Careful with the dogs. Mine would grab that tube as a play toy.

I love the braces ON the shutters, without them it looks like something is missing BUUUUT with that being said it’s y’all’s home so you should do what you like best. I only said my preference because y’all asked🙂. I love all the extras, they add character to the home. God bless y’all🙏🏻

Keep them on. Gives more character...

I love the crossbraces ❤

My Veterinarian wears a tick collar on his ankle. He runs with his dog and down on the peninsula all the walking/running paths are tick infested. He swears that it works great. Now you want to watch what your putting in/on your body but you also need to weigh the difference between wearing a deterrent verses a tick born disease.

Spread Irish Spring soap around. Cheaper than other chemicals. You can use a hole bar or shred it.

I’d like the Shutters with the bracket on them. I would put it back on.

OOH OOH. Put the brackets up with the decorative nails too.

You are over thinking it ❤ they look great with cross bar & nails on ends

HEY CHAD ! get a can of clear flat krylon spray paint and hit the heads of all those fancy nails so they dont rust and ruin your shutters 😁

They’re sealed

I vote for transversing the cross braces on the shutters. The smooth or rough cut look won’t be noticeable, especially after you treat/seal them. They look incredibly nice and the black steel accents on them and the garage doors are a rustically elegant touch!

For those angle braces you could use screws in the smaller holes and use those decorative buttons over the big holes to match the shutters.

Keep them. It adds to the front of the house. Soft side is fine

I totally understand the hesitation to use tiki torches. I lost my home to a fire in 2000. I am still wary of fire anywhere near the house. You have to live it to understand it.

Everything you are adding makes a big difference. It's looking better all the time.

Flip the shutters upside down, That'll change the direction of the cross brace. God Bless Y'all. ✌️

Definitely like the cross bar on the shutter!

Without the cross bar it looks more modern. Love the tack nails

Love the citronella candle and the mosquito bands. Yes, I’m 6 ft, have to wear one on wrist and one on ankle. Stay mosquito free! Love the decor of the ‘buttons’ on the windows. Happy Days! ❄️🧊☀️😄👏🥰🤗🙏

I have learned something that if you just leave one of the candles sitting in the hot sun citronella works

Leave them as they are. With the new nails they look just fine. The new to you home/farm is looking great🎉!!!!

Hi Chad and Rae, I think those cross peace’s on the shutters look good. That’s a good mix of outdoor stuff you have there. Love what you’re doing with your new property. 👍👍❤️❤️🇨🇦

Here in Arizona we have a deterrent for diamondback rattlesnakes called “ Snake Away” can get it in graduals or a Spray you hook up with your water hose. They work! ( I don’t like the graduals because the get scattered all over and they smell like mothballs and The liquid spray I like better ( it smells like mothballs too) Only drawback is if it rains have to reapply them! We get monsoon storms here in summertime! I still use the spray! It works. 🤗👍🏻👵🏻

Do what you like. Personally I'd either correct or remove the cross brace. I love the addition of the studs. When we are at camp, we tuck bounce (regular scent) dryer sheets, around the back of our neck, and in the back pocket. It helps ward away the knats, etc...

WV HILLBILLY CHAD & RAE I LIKE THE ONE WITHOUT THE CROSS BOARD AND THE BIG SCREWS ON SHURDERS LOOK GREAT

Love the personal touch 💕🙏

I like the cross brace on, it adds character.. The shutter without the cross brace would be like an ice cream without the sprinkles..

Hi my extended family ❤ praying for all you guys! Looking great around there awesome job!

The tack nails look great they match the dark color of the house! The crossbar may keep the upright boards from bowing as they age, otherwise your choice as to the style. IMHO!

Love how you're adding all your personal touches to your home. God bless you all😂❤❤❤❤❤

Kyle and Shannon need some of these!

I really love the decorative nails. They add so much beauty to the shutters. Also, the garage door magnets look sharp. You guys have really done a lot to the house. It’s gorgeous.

That was a Dad joke! Fall because leaves fall. Good one, Chad😂

love the shutters WITHOUT THE CROSS WOOD. You are adding some great character to your garage doors and shutters. Nice work guys.

I like the crossbars on but of course, you have the final say!! Love everything you are doing to the home.

I love the fake bolts in the shutters. As for the slanted board, I like it both ways. So whatever makes you happy. Go for it.

Ooh also, mix 1 bottle of vanilla extract with 1 bottle of rubbing alcohol and 6 drops of peppermint oil (store in a dark glass bottle) fill a fine mist spray bottle and it's a NATURAL BUG REPELLANT. ♡ yesss we're one of those families lol.

Alluding a bit of cayenne will determine soooo many pests but I wouldn't put it on the 2 lil one....although you can without. If your worried about it irritating your skin just add aloe gel to it ♡

So I use the large bottle of the pure vanilla...(it's expensive but will keep a long time in the alcohol) I also use the WAlmart 32oz of 91% (it will evaporate off your skin quickly and you could probably add more than 6drops of peppermint and probably should but I hate too much in mine) Also cayenne....I forgot that. But bugs do not like my spray at all annnd it smells great . Downright tasty lol annnd is cheaper especially in a fine mist bottle like you'd use for fixing your child's hair on school mornings lol. AND ITS NONTOXIC TO HUMAND AND PETS! ♡

The decorative nails on the shutters look nice. Grandpa is right, wait until it's cooler to seal. I like your large. rooster Rae

Definitely Cross Bar off. Buttons and Garage Decor really look Great!!! What an easy Transformation. The Homestead is taking in Character ❤❤❤

Keep the cross brace on the shutters and add the nails. I love what you guys have done so far. The only thing you're missing now Chad is something to repel spiders...😂 Keep up the good work...👍🏽

I like the shutters with the cross board on it best. It gives the home more of a rustic "farmy" look. Sounds kinda of silly, but it gives the home a more comfy feeling to me. Had to edit to add that I love those nails you added to the shutters.

Be careful that if you wear the items that there isn’t chemicals that will go into your system and make you sick if you wear more than one at a time, we love you and don’t want you to be harmed

Shutters without that cross brace thing looks so much better!

I am so enjoying y'all's new channels. Gives me more Doss family time! I love it. We're in Florida, and watching the storms, both gulf side and the Atlantic.

Love the shutters without the cross bars. Also love the garage doors. Everything looks amazing guys❤

I would leave them on and let the sun take care of it. You guys are doing a great job with the house

Our exterminator told me to use Borax to help keep the ants away from our kitchen door and it really worked!

I love the nails in the shutters. If it were mine I would request that the bar stay off. 😊

The shutters look nice without the cross tie. The deco nails look great.

As for the snake repellent, make or buy a band for your ankles with a pocket for one on each leg. Maybe even make a velcro closed fabric band? You need like 6 pair, to cover your whole family with extra to spare. OR just use some little pouches and use a shoelace to tie to ankles?

Hi guys from the uk 🇬🇧 😊

It's very painful for animals that have eaten poison especially the dogs. It doesn't matter if they live in the country, educate the kids !!!!

Just put the nails in and leave the support board, looks good.

Like the buttons on the shutters and the touches to the garage. Looks really nice you guys

Howdy Chad and Rae, those were cool gadgets. God bless you both and your whole family...🙏🙏🙏

I'd leave the extra piece off the shutters. It looks like more of an upgrade but then again it's your house so you do you!

I like the shutters with the cross bar thing and the buttons! I would not have known which way they were supposed to go but that's just me. Everything looks so beautiful!

I like the buttons on the shutters. So much making your home yours with special touches.

Prayers for health and safety!🙏❤️🙏

Love the circle ⭕ on the window 🪟 no the cross bord

LOVE your house and the changes you've made. All of it looks terrific.

Love the change to this new channel, you two are adorable 🥰 I really like the shutters without the crossy thingy. It makes your windows look bigger and stand out more. The buttons are a great touch! Love it!

yes to those corner beam decoration and it will tie into the rest of what you are putting on your home. I think it adds character! As for the cross braces there is no need for them! Looks good the way they are now. The nails on the shutter are good as well. and for those mosquito bracelets I would do one on the wrist and one on the ankle!

I know you will but watch those snake things. From the pups. Love u guys . You are really working hard on the place and it looks Great .

Without the cross bars. It would be nice to see a family pool time.

I really like the upgrades you’re doing. With the black that you’re adding, I think your light over your door would look really nice with a black metal light or paint the silver metal black.

I use special collars for my dogs when I go hiking. The vet told me to put them in the freezer when not in use, and they would last all season.

I love the new hardware you are adding. The buttons are really nice. It looks amazing. Love the garage additions also. Your home is looking great. Love you guys.

I like the cross bars on over not being on.

I LOVE the shutter nails and the garage accents. Thanks for the heads up on the insect repellant bracelets.

Leave the cross brace off of the shutters! I Love the Nail Heads!! 👍

I like it without the cross brace. I like the cute buttons.

The solar ball lights or firefly lights as they are formally called, can be spread out in a more circular pattern by pinching the stem part. I have a lot of them in my yard,even bought some color changing ones on Ebay.

I personally like the cross things.. its just for looks and it gives it that rustic look.. I think their kool

SPRING ... FALL...they compliment each other...😂 leaves spring and leaves fall😂

I like the shutters without the crossbars, and the tacks look great, dresses the shutters just enough.

I love the decorative nails. Looks much better than the cross bars

I think you don’t need the cross piece. It looks great without. Everything looks great. You have done a fantastic job updating everything.

Love you and Rae together on the videos 🎉. You are coming up with bits for your house outside and garden which are adding you own touches. Love the shutters with the nails in then without the bar. Doss outdoors is coming along nicely. Well done. Look forward to the next video. Take care and safe all of you.🙋🏡❤️💑
