Eclectic and Unique Decor

I've used the term 'eclectic' to describe several featured mobile homes over the last 9 years. I never gave the word much thought, really. I used eclectic to describe a space that was unusual or unique or had a mix-match style. Imagine my surprise when I realized that I had been using the word eclectic incorrectly all this time. The…

Eclectic is coming back in style! While the white farmhouse style was taking over the country the more colorful and eclectic style was creeping up behind it.

This was a big deal to me since there wasn’t a whole lot of mobile homes being featured in national home decorating magazines. Unfortunately, BHG used the words trailer house or trailer home to describe it. What…

The mobile homes in…

Guy Bonin has always been a bit of a handyman. That's probably why his friends gave him this an old single wide. They knew he could do something with it and he certainly didn't disappoint because this 1979 single wide transformation is awesome!
