Beautiful Manufactured Home Decorating Ideas

“Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.” ― Leonardo da Vinci

Manufactured home decorating can be difficult, especially if you are trying to give the home a modern look without a big budget. Giving the walls a neutral base to start with is always a good idea, in this case, a very light blue was used. The designer used modern yet simple decor and furnishings that were all affordable. Keeping clutter at bay and allowing only a few special pieces of furniture or decor to be spotlighted is another good way to modernize your manufactured home. Here’s a beautiful double wide home that uses all the best designer tricks.

This beautiful home is a 1980ish double wide, typical of the era and in a great setting as you can see below. New owners bought it and quickly brought in a talented woman named Lori that runs her own shop, The White Flower, on eastern Long Island. This home could be described as a combination of simple, modern country with an industrial feel. All of it is inspiring and a perfect source of manufactured home decorating ideas.

Molding, both base, and crown on each wall were installed in every room. While this is an above average expense, it is well worth it. The addition of molding seems to be the one trick used in every great redesign.

The designer states that nothing in the home cost over $500 and the furniture was second hand or outlet store finds.

Beadboard, as a cost-effective wall material and texture, was used in several rooms. Simple Berber carpet from Home Depot lends its warmth. With soft colors used throughout except one dramatic red room, above, the designer set the stage. She also brought in one of a kind impact pieces in both an industrial and country style. The national retail store light fixtures seem to steal the show in every room. Bringing forth another great design tip, lighting can make or break a room. It also doesn’t have to be overly expensive to work.

This home is a beautiful example of simplicity and a great way to get manufactured home decorating ideas.

I’ll add the topic to my “need to write more about” list and try to get you some more great ideas soon. Thanks so much for reading MHL!

I’d love to….. I’ll take before and after photos……

Let me start by saying thanks to your website I’ve taken the plunge and just bought a doublewide in Florida. So, thank you for all the inspiration. The previous owner is a sweet older lady, heck I am too, but we have very different design ideas, hers is doilies and frilly curtains and wallpaper borders, mine is more modern, primitive, leather, Navajo rugs and mid century. I know, that sounds crazy and I was trying to imagine modern and primitive together when I found this house. Oh boy…. I love it. I can’t wait to close on my new house and get going. I only have a few pieces of furniture because I’ve been traveling, and living in, an Airstream trailer for 15 years. Now I can’t wait to get started, your website is a great inspiration!
