You've done an amazing job on a LOW budget. It's such a lovely home.

[@cherylsalinas1548]

Absolutely amazing. You have done such an incredible job. It’s beautiful. I’m so very proud of you. Blessings and stay safe. ❤️

[@cherylsalinas1548]

What an awesome job you have done. It is absolutely beautiful. I’m so proud of you. I love watching your videos and this one is the icing on the cake. So very very happy for you. ❤️❤️❤️Blessings and stay safe.

You did a great job...lovely!

[@tanyag2092]

People have such preconceived notions about "trailers" so I love that you've made your home so beautiful and budget friendly! Happy for you😉

[@DumpsterCam]

Thank you so much😁

[@kymspicks2763]

This is so true! People pay 200k for houses in the same condition as this trailer. I love how budget friendly they are as well. My family thinks I'm crazy when I tell them I want to purchase a cheap mobile home or house and remodel it but this right here shows the potential and how cheap it can be done.

[@sharonlain3956]

@@kymspicks2763 My friends have a gorgeous mobile home they’ve remodeled. I love people who think outside of the “box”.

[@Marys_Life_64]

When my grandma retired and moved after purchasing land she bought a trailer. She had lived in one before and liked it. Since it was on her property she added a trailer long additional room. It was used mostly to grow things during the winter and for sitting. I lived in a very big trailer in South Texas for 5 years. I liked it for the size. It wasn't mine and didn't want to spend money on it. I did have to replace the bathroom floor after a family of possums found an opening under the trailer and destroyed that part of the floor. The landlord fixed underneath. No biggie. They're strong creatures when it's cold and they're looking for someplace warm. :)

[@sherrywillette6183]

Lovely

[@Sumogrits]

I literally just learned three cool things about you. You seem to be very appreciative in life by tackling what some think can't be achieved, you go after what you want (perseverance), and you share with others what matters most (inspiration). TFS!

[@gailbader8149]

You've done a great job on that place! You should be proud!!!

[@sarahscott6565]

I am absolutely floored! I’ve never seen a mobile home that is so chic. She’s done a great job of working with the space and finding storage. I also love all the plants everywhere. She keeps them in good condition and has really nice display shelves for them so they look modern and clean. The whole place is just fantastic.

[@sarahjones6342]

Theres alot of moblie homes that are very nice in todays world.some New mobile homes are nicer inside and bigger them some homes.Just alot of pro owning one.

[@tonikersey9378]

They didn't float the subfloor. Basically means they didn't make the subfloor smooth before the did the install. If it's not fliated it will show everything through the vinyl every crack and nail. I would have them redo the whole thing. After all you did pay for a job done correctly so that's what you should get. Your money is as good as everyone else's.

[@donnawade5570]

You have a beautiful home! It looks so cozy and homey! Congratulations on a job well done!

[@bobbipetty7411]

So cute, you should be so proud of yourself.

[@marideathydeelz5334]

You made a single wide trailer into a fancy home, filled with plants, decor and love. Comfy and cozy definitely defines it. You could easily make a profit on it, if you weren’t living there. Great job!

[@sheilagravely5621]

I love the plant room and closet! What a great idea. Very clever.

[@karentrevino1623]

Beautiful,your home looks so comfortable,and that is what a home should be.I did the same thing remolded and now my home is my sanctuary.

[@jennibennecke669]

That little chair for your plant. I love that idea! Keeping my eyes peeled

[@leah__gail]

Super cute! For those of us who don’t want, or need something big and expensive, it’s perfect! I love how you’ve decorated it, as well. Yeah, you’ll be able to get 25-30g’s for that when you’re ready to sell.

[@westcoastorbust2462]

No she won’t.

[@l.a.picasa]

Unfortunately, mobile homes sell kinda like cars in the way they depreciate, regardless of the updates. It's not fair. But that's NOT to say that she won't sell for what she's hoping for with the right buyer!

[@heatherharris7587]

This is absolutely gorgeous. I lived in a mobile home with my husband and 4 kids for about 14 years. I never even envisioned how nice it could look. This is absolutely beautiful. I agree with how the plants make you feel peaceful. I do not have a green thumb,. But you do an amazing job.

[@jiggsiemamma]

What a beautiful job you did Cam! You should be so very proud of yourself! I would live there in a heartbeat. But I would make the second room into a craft room! God bless you honey! Love from this 71 yo grandma!

[@tammy4him42]

Very nice! I love hearing the positivity and the love you have for your home! Some many people are not thankful for what they have.

[@mariejordan7312]

This was a very nice tour of your beautiful home. I love your style of decorating. That electric panel near your bedroom would be a great place to hang a picture or a long dress mirror ❤

[@neenyamyers6861]

A long wide mirror yes

[@georgiannaneller1394]

And you can put a long mirror, or a shutter, or a section of a bifold door, or a narrow french style door, on a piano hinge to swing aside for access to the electrical panel.

[@AGM-ts5bb]

Just beautiful! Flabbergasted constantly at what people throw out.

[@zandracrisp6438]

Absolutely gorgeous nice job...

[@noreengarcia]

Absolutely fabulous! Great for young or elderly. No loft. Easy layout for cleaning and upkeep. A winner! Thanks for sharing.👍

[@rachelqstitches]

I love your bathroom wall! Everything looks great. I’ve been following since you bought the place and you’ve done an amazing job

[@lightingfreedom1287]

hi, glad that we can provide you sample of 48ft color changing string lights, perfect decoration for patio or backyard lighting...contact us if you need it, thank you

[@shirleydrake1602]

I love your rocking chair. Relocate your plant, add a footrest and make a reading nook there. Reading nook, fish room, plant room, and desk/craft area. That’s a lot of great uses for your “spare” room. I really enjoyed your tour. What a nice space and you own it rather then are renting it. Such a smart thing to do.

[@gscrafty4801]

Your home turned out so nice!!! And so cost effective. Love it!!!❤️❤️❤️

[@wholman8159]

your home turned out beautiful!!! nice work! re: the plant with brown edges, it's probably a build up of minerals ( usually salt) in soil. thoroughly flush plant with tap water in sink or tub. if possible, give it filtered water for awhile. those plants will thrive and get huge. I planted mine outside & it's done good in drought, frost etc

[@vanessathomas7437]

STOP WISHING START DOING....Great Advice!

[@sandrabost1827]

Love your home. You have made it so cozy and inviting!!!!!!

This is very nice . I’m looking into purchasing a mobile home . This gave me hope that things will be just fine

[@rachelcarey9369]

My aunt's is amazing!!!!!! She just had ceramic 'hard woods' installed. A wood burner installed and it's just a beautiful home!

[@jeannechard2087]

You have made an old lost space into a lovely warm home. It is beautiful and you should be proud of all your hard work. Wish I lived close we would have a cup of coffee and you could share all the fun and tears that went into your Home.

[@DumpsterCam]

Thank you Jeanne, reading your comment made me smile :)

[@grannygrunt5211]

Your plant room in the closet is so cool I like it, good decorating idea!

[@JustDiane71]

1500.00!?! Can't ever beat that!! Then the work you put in wow!!! You'll definitely get your return and some!!!

[@maryblackburn4929]

I really like the green cabinet in the bathroom and the tiles on the wall.

[@AcornHillHomestead]

Nice job. Very cute. We have owned a 1970’s 14 x 70 mobile home that looked a wreck outside but good inside. We painted the dark paneling and added a new kitchen. The main area and layout is just like yours. It is adorable and so functional. We picked it up cheap as a summer cottage two houses from the lake. Now we use it for friends and family to visit as we rehabbed a nearby larger 80’s modular home for ourselves. I highly recommend it. They are so easy to care for!

[@loiskilgore2118]

I wish i could come across a deal like that...Love it nice and cozy!!! Glad you finally got most of it finished..

[@kimberli8225]

Wow! I'm 62 years old and I'm thinking of doing the same, out of nesissity !!! So I my Bff, she is 70. Your fabulous !!!

[@marideathydeelz914]

You have done an amazing job with your house. You love it so much, you’ve turned it into a HOME! I couldn’t find even ONE thing to criticize! I love your color themes, and how “together” everything meshes. You planned it well!

[@DumpsterCam]

Thank you so much!! It's been a fun process

[@pattimessenger6214]

You have set yourself up with a lovely little home that will allow you to live below your means! I love the way you’ve decorated. It looks so pretty and cozy! Your kitchen might just be bigger than mine, and I’m in a 4 bedroom home. I would check out the support under your floor. The way your vinyl flooring bubbles looks like the floor might be sagging. If your dad is handy, maybe he could help get it properly supported. Our home had a very fancy 80’s shower curtain with heavy drapes over it in the main bathroom. Something designed by a professional decorator. Very inconvenient. You couldn’t see to shower and shave your legs. I pulled that monstrosity down and installed (DIY) glass shower doors from Home Depot. It was such an improvement! They look better, easy to clean, and there is plenty of light in the shower!

[@catherineseiler7407]

You did a beautiful job on your home, it's very nice.

[@dochubbell]

Your space and all you've done to it fits you perfectly. Congrats on bringing new life into a living space that has to have appreciated in value considering everything you did to improve it. Good job.

[@bellapetalart]

Adorable! This is cozy and clean, something definitely to be proud to call as home. ♥️🌹

[@angelajohnston7332]

Your home is stunning and I can completely see the attraction of a mobile home and being mortgage free. We don’t really have mobile home living in uk unless it’s holiday parks but they are not a patch on your beautiful home it’s very inspiring ❤️

[@lexig7209]

You did such a great job! Love everything, especially the bathroom with that wall and green vanity ❤

[@AcornHillHomestead]

I wish more people would seriously consider older mobile homes especially to start out in. People are missing out and way overpaying for homes these days. We bought a 1976 14 x 70 model in 2002 as a vacation home instead of renting camper space. Finally after 22 years and several minor remodels we are doing a proper renovation and it is turning out soooo nice. Anyone with some carpentry skills can save tons of money over renting. Our place is on 1/2 acre of our own land. They are very simple to work on. They are awesome for people wanting to downsize in their older years and for singles and couples people just starting out not wanting to throw money away on rent. We are going to offer this as a vacation rental and move into it once we are ready to downsize.

[@cherylel-issawi1827]

Looks so beautiful ☺️ I love how you incorporate plants 🪴 in just about every room. So happy for you to have such a beautiful home. It’s so clean and airy looking. Take care.

[@sandraglover2681]

I "found" you this am & so glad I did! You've done an amazing job with the reno & decorating! My husband and I lived in a "trailer" for 10 years, brought both of my babies home to live here & sold it and made a profit also. We had blown insulation installed, all new flooring, new plumbing in the bathroom & made many memories in those 10 years. I've subscribed to your channel & excited to see what else you have. Blessings from gg in Tennessee

[@barbarap8163]

It looks beautiful! You have very nice taste. Enjoy it!

Fabulous little home, still living our dream! You're such a lovely lady X P.s. those little sheep in your bedroom in the high shelf are so cute. X

[@mercurymom]

Your home is just beautiful!! You sold me when I saw the beautiful large window in the kitchen. You are very smart, and prove you don't have to be rich to have a nice, safe and beautiful home.

[@angelicaangel8684]

Your house is beautiful! I also love the plants, they were perfect in their decoration, I loved it 🥰 São Paulo-Brasil

We're renovating an even older one and the landlord is letting us live there while we update as our rent would be. So exciting and beautifully done! Great inspiration for it thank you!

[@audreyhaney2833]

Oh sister it is so beautiful, I am so proud for you!! I have been praying for a home of my very own (I rent presently) I know you have to be very happy, it turned out amazing! I absolutely love cozy feeling it gives off ❤️❤️❤️ Congrats 🙌🏼

Thank you so much! I am definitely happy with it, and feels great to know how far it's come 😁

[@DumpsterCam]

Goodluck with your space!

[@bestever2682]

I love the brightness!!!! I loved in a trailer that was all brown and we couldn't change anything. I was miserable. I love this!! Great job!

[@l.a.picasa]

Yes! That dark brown paneling that most of them (70s-80s) were built with really can feel depressing. Thank goodness we were able to paint light the trailer I used to live in. Just that alone makes a HUGE difference in mood and openness feel.

[@msbangtidy]

U could put a nice large neural rug underneath your table , would hide floor and be cosy on ur feet 😉 👍

[@savannahgill3621]

I thought the same thing but the floor vent is in the way

[@loriskiba3921]

Idk how I missed this video when you posted it, but I did.. Anyway, from seeing your little apartment before to getting to see the progression through the purchase of your home and remodeling of it, I am amazed at how quickly you've gotten it all done truthfully! I bet it feels like you've gained so much more room since you were able to fully move in! Plus the freedom of having your own place... I had done a similar thing back in my 20s, going from apartment living to a mobile home. I ALWAYS called it my home too! I would never allow anyone to say it was just a trailer, bc it wasn't too me. I did get mine new and paid abt as much as you did, if you include all of your renovations. I think mine was $1,000 to $2,000 more. You did way better than I ever would have. I was working long hours and would not have had any idea abt how to do any of the things you did! Back then, I knew nothing abt renovation.

[@ressiehernandez4563]

Thank you! It's actually just a single wide, about 900 square feet

[@patleslie6878]

Leave the shower curtain the clear you already have. Very contemporary and clean.

[@l.a.picasa]

Yes! And gives a larger feel to the room than a non-see-through curtain. Maybe add a hanging philodendron or other water/humidity friendly plant to liven up that space.

[@kedeglow2743]

I'm in awe of what you have done! I spent $65,000 on my first home 25 years ago, a small ranch on a full basement built in 1963. Then I spent another 10 grand rennovating it. It was nice,...larger than what you have, but definately not any nicer! I didn't need that much house. I wish I had been as smart as you back then. You have an amazing style, eclectic but elegant and organized. Beautiful job!

[@Thomas63r2]

Beautiful - quite an inspiration. Five years ago I bought a smaller “junk” house for $11,000. Its 864 sq. ft. two bedroom with an attached 624 sq. ft. garage/shop on a 1/3 acre and a four car driveway. I’ve spent ~ $18,000 to fix it up and get some new and some used furniture. It’s modest but it’s really perfect for my needs. I’ve still got a ways to go, need a new roof etc. Day by day it slowly has become a nicer place. I appreciate the work you have put into your home, great results!

[@laurarobinson1257]

You did an AMAZING job. My family and I have remodeled mobile homes a couple of times. We have always been able to sell them quickly. I think you have made a beautiful peaceful home. You did so well with the colors and the decorating. You really are so talented. I think it is a an amazing transformation. I was so happy to see all the wonderful details you put in.
