Atlantic Premium Shutters, for example, is a company that offers a wide array of cut-outs, including anchors, sailboats and palm trees, plus they can make virtually any type of custom designed cut-out if provided a drawing or template.
Update:
Atlantic just informed me that while their shutters look like wood, they are actually composite shutters. Please forgive my glitch. The good news is, the shutters are more durable and never have to be painted!
Other sources for decorative window shutters are Seaport Shutters...
... and Jane Coslick's Decorative Board and Batten Shutters, available in ten different colors. You can see more of Tybee Island designer Jane on Super Easy DIY Headboard Ideas where she props a chipped and faded shutter behind the bed! Or check out her Remodel of Breeze In Cottage.
This is an example of non-functional decorative window shutters, captured by One Nutty Girl on St. Simons Island GA. You could easily make these yourself! See DIY Wood Shutters at Everyday Occasions. Then cut out the simple shape of sailboats with a jig saw.
Another idea is to add decorative hardware to window shutters. So lovely. These are also board and batten shutters. You can tour this Cottage at House Beautiful.

These are amazing! There's the cutest house on the beach in Destin that has fish cut into their shutters and on the risers of the steps up to the deck. Love... :)

I want the stars...
I'll have to show these to my hubby, maybe he will make some for me! We just have the regular shutters right now, but I'd love some palm tree cutouts to match the front screen door.
Love cutouts on shutters! Imagine looking at them on a moonlit night, and the shadows they would cast.
I love shutters too and these all were wonderful! Thanks for sharing them with us!
I love all of these! They are outstanding!
The first one with the anchors is my favorite, I've had a huge thing for anchors since I bought a pair of anchor ear rings.. LOVE these shutters! They really do add the perfect dose of charm to a house.

The gray house with the red door and blue shutters is such a great color palette.
