A manufactured home is a wonderful space for you to live that you can make your own. Buying a used manufactured home can give you the most bang for your buck, allowing you to find a wonderful place to live that is affordable and that leaves you with plenty of money left over to use for fun decorating projects. Once you have found your perfect manufactured home and gotten settled on your lot, you can move on to the fun part of making the space beautiful, functional and comfortable for you and for your family.
When decorating your new manufactured home, keep these basic decorating tips in mind to ensure that you are happy with the finished product and that you truly enjoy living in your beautiful space:
- Come up with a cohesive plan for the room before you paint or buy furniture. You don’t want to find the perfect sofa only to find that it does not match the brand new paint that you put on the wall. If you create a vision for the room before you move in to decorating each space, you can make all of your choices with the vision in mind. You won’t have to redo paint or other remodeling steps and you will be happier with the finished product.
- Make sure your furniture is to-scale in the space. You don’t want furniture that is too large as it can make your manufactured home seem crowded and make your space uncomfortable. At the same time, you also do not want furniture that is too small for your space as your house won’t be as comfortable as it should be and the rooms can look empty.
- Choose décor and furniture that works with the way you live. If you enjoy zoning out in front of the television when you come home from work, for example, trying to stick your TV in a small cabinet is not going to work very well for you even if you like the way that it looks. Think about how your family is actually going to use the space and ensure that you have provided furniture that allows you to do the things you love comfortably.
- Consider furniture that serves multiple purposes. For example, you may wish to think about an ottoman that also doubles as storage so that the ottoman does double duty. A couch that folds down into a bed is another great double duty option that will make it easier for you to have guests in your home. Hopefully, your home that you found will provide you with ample storage and ample space to do the things that you like, but everyone can always use a little more space and double duty furniture will give you what you are looking for.
By thinking about how you want to decorate your space, and decorating with intention, you can make your manufactured home a really beautiful place to be.
