A double-wide gives Halloween decorating something a compact entry does not: width. That extra frontage can support larger, more dramatic ideas, but it also makes weak composition easier to notice. If the door, every window, each porch post, the steps, landscaping, and mailbox all receive equal attention, the exterior can start looking like several unrelated … Read more
A mobile home front door has a smaller canvas than many Pinterest entrances, which makes every fall detail more noticeable.

In another room, a small amount of molding, wood, pattern, or shelving can give an otherwise flat surface the architectural presence it is missing. The best DIY mobile home … Read more
