These 7 farmhouse double wides are fabulous!
One reason the farmhouse style is popular because it’s so affordable, or attainable. Mid-century modern, beachy cottage and even modern traditional decor are expensive, even secondhand items. But you can easily find furniture that’s well-worn and within budget. If you can’t find what you want you can always create it yourself with chalk paint and sandpaper.
Farmhouse decor has taken the country by storm thanks to Chip and Joanna Gaines. Joanna has a knack of creating a unique rustic elegance with a perfect combination of worn, white, and welcoming but it’s the imperfection of the farmhouse style that makes it so appealing.
The modern farmhouse style is characterized by white walls, natural textures like warm wood, and a smidge of hard metal like black iron or cool steel.

The right light fixtures can make or break the farmhouse style. If you go too light or subtle a piece can get lost in all the white. If you go too bold it overpowers the look.
