The fireplaces in standard mobile homes leave a bit to be desired.
Read about all the steps she took to turn dull into delicious on her Redoing a Fireplace Mantel post.
A mobile home usually has sub-standard cabinetry through out the home, especially in the kitchen.
See how she accomplished this remarkable make over on her Kitchen Transformation post.
Mobile home laundry rooms are usually an afterthought for the
architectures and homeowners alike.
It’s certainly not an afterthought in Teresa’s home!
See how she pulled this off on her Laundry Room Reveal post. Teresa has updated the guest bathroom to make any guest feel right at home.

Crafting Helps Make Farmhouse Style Double Wide Makeover Beautiful
Teresa is a crafting machine! She has many projects that are especially relevant to mobile homes, such as how to turn standard ceiling fans into a more modern nickel finished fan using spray paint and a few small purchases. She also refurbishes furniture, sews, and can even recover lamp shades (one of the hardest things I have ever tried to do).
Here are some of my favorite craft projects she has done:
See what I mean about talent? She also has an Etsy shop, Teaberry’s Treasures, where she sells a few of her most popular handmade crafts.I love it when I can share mobile and manufactured homeowners that turn their homes into comfortable spaces. When homeowners allow us a peek into their homes, they not only inspire but they make it easy to see what is possible.
I appreciate Teresa opening up her home to us. By all means, go to Magazine Your Home and see all the other great projects she has done. Her Christmas decor was a true spirit lifter and her sewing and craft projects are written in easy to follow steps that anyone can follow. Teresa will be answering our Mobile Home Living Questionnaire on tomorrows post and you won’t want to miss her responses. They are very open and honest which always makes for a great read.

Thank you for reading and commenting! I appreciate you very much!
Wow, loved the bath and laundry transformations. I do not have the vision for such things. It looks just like a stick built house inside now.
Hi Johan! I've seen a few mud & straw houses here in WV, they are actually pretty popular here! I think the manufactured home industry is going to figure out how to get the best of both worlds: movable and earth friendlier- built with renewable materials. Thanks so much for commenting!
Since the times of developments in the antiquated times, people have been exploring different avenues regarding an assortment of manufacturing materials. Leaves, straws and mud were right around the ordinarily utilized building materials for building houses numerous centuries back. Before very long, individuals found the utilization of stone and wood in developing preferred living spots.
Hi Lauren!
I believe it's been a work in progress for a while. She just finished her kitchen and shared it with us a couple weeks ago.
Thanks so much for commenting and reading MMHL!
Hi Crystal, I love your blog! When are we going to see your remodel? May be doing one of our own soon! Will let you know!
Hi Charlotte! Lamps are a great accessory to a kitchen! Just don't do
like I did and buy those new bulbs that say \”cool\” on them. They
produce the ugliest, whitest light. I have since learned to only buy
the ones that are 'warm' because they look more like the good ole
fashioned light bulbs…lesson learned..lol Thanks so much for
commenting!
I love lamps in the kitchen as an alternative to replacing the overhead lighting. You get the light and the warmth in one unit.
Glad you enjoyed it Mandy! That's why I do it..inspiration for all of
us..I'm in the process of remodeling my home too so I need all the
inspiration I can get too..lol
oh man am i in love with this lady's house! great style 🙂
thanks for sharing this eye candy with us!!
Yes, she does! The home is a gem and a real feast for the eyes!
Very, very nice. This person has a good eye for detail & quality.
So glad you enjoyed it! I get excited when I find gorgeous mobile
homes, too..the 1940's and 50's Spartan Trailers are my absolute
favorites because they remind of the good ole days and I can just see
hoop skirts and happy children in them. Thanks so much for reading and
commenting!
this mobile home redo was the best! very warm and very charming and more than just cozy, very french country
LOVED IT!!! WOW!
I am enthralled by beautiful mobile homes–maybe remind me of a tree hous, or a doll house–and of course vintage 50's trailor's are so cute and so VINTAGE per se
Crystal… this was a Great feature! I loved seeing the wonderful transformations.
