Popular Paint Colors For Your Manufactured Home in 2018

We found these popular paint colors for your manufactured home on Pinterest and other home design sites. They should get your paint sticks stirring.

Black Is Back, Baby

Black and darker grays are taking the walls by storm. Though typically used as an accent color, blacks and grays are taking center stage nowadays.

Black chalkboard paint seems to have started the trend and we are glad it did – black is a really cool twist on typical home decorating. The ‘dark colors aren’t for small spaces’ mantra has been thrown right out the teal door. Dark colors work really well in a small space when the right trim and lighting are used.

Shades Of Blue

Blue has always been a popular color in any home. It’s a great color that pairs well with other colors but is also strong enough to stand on its own in a room.  From navy to a green-blue combination there are many new shades to choose from.

Let The Sun Shine In

Just about any hue in the yellow family, from calming buttercream to bold banana,  have become popular paint colors for your manufactured home. Yellow lets light bounce around a bit so it’s a smart color for a room that needs brightening up. The right yellow can create that happy cottage kitchen you’ve always wanted.

A great tip to try before committing to a color? Ask for a sample, and paint a large square in the room to see how the color feels during different times of the day. Some colors that look great at noon are not so great at midnight.

Boring or Beautiful Bisque?

Beiges and cream colors are staples in home decor because they create a perfect canvas for any style. When white is too bright, beige is just right!

While beiges and creams are popular paint colors for your manufactured home, they can be a bit boring. Use furniture and accessories to brighten the room and add interest.

Pinks are Pretty Popular

Pastel colors such as pink and lavender are usually associated with nurseries or a small child’s room. However, a light pink or barely-there lavender can provide a great neutral backdrop in any space.

In fact, bright and bold purple is the Pantone Color of the Year for 2018. They know color better than anyone and that’s why it is one of our picks for popular paint colors for your manufactured home.

    My single wide was bought in 2010 and although i picked out the wallpaper and it is nice I sometimes think I’d like to paint the rooms instead. Would I have to take all the wallpaper off first or could I paint overtop?

      Hi Anita,

      You definitely want to remove the wallpaper unless it’s the paintable kind. Regular wallpaper will not hold paint well. Maybe you could try a chair rail with a nice trim on the bottom third of the wall?
