There are so many ways to refresh your mobile home without giving it a total remodel. From painting to changing out light fixtures we are sharing 5 ideas to give your mobile home a fresh new look. We have also added some of our favorite links to articles about how to DIY these projects yourself.

Change Out Your Window Treatments

Nothing changes the look of a room faster than updating your windows treatments, especially in smaller mobile homes where space is limited and you need to give the illusion of more room. Try raising your curtain rods, switching out dark curtains for a more sheer look, or ditching the curtains all together and opting for standard blinds or roller blinds (like the woven ones shown below) to change the entire look of your space.

Trimming out the windows and raising the rods open this room up.
Blinds can be stylish and practical at the same time.
