    Today's full home tour is in response to the many requests I've received from viewers to show all of my home. This is not a tour to music. I'm walking viewers through each room, showing before photos, and explaining what I've done to update my single-wide mobile home, followed by a Q&A. Also showing photos of the exterior. Thank you so much for watching!

    Your home is beautiful and very tastefully decorated. I love the French country look. Its encouraging to see that it does not require a lot of money to brighten up one’s home with just a little paint and secondhand finds.

      @ajoyfulcottage  ปีที่แล้ว +7

      I'm glad you're encouraged, Karen. Fresh paint makes such a big difference for so little money. And for me, furnishing a home with secondhand finds is so much more fun and rewarding than buying new. God bless you!♥

    Your home is lovely! You have a quiet creativity that does not overwhelm the senses...the work you've done in the kitchen is top notch. And if the French farm look is what you were going for, you've nailed it, clearly! Your home overall, promotes a calming effect...in
    today's world, that's a plus for sure! And, as anyone can see, you're ultra clean...which helps in making any look, or style, much more pleasing to the eye. Great effort on your part! Looking forward to the upcoming redesigns you mentioned doing in the immediate future. And, your talent has served you well, in making it look WAY LESS mobilehome and ALOT more COUNTRY COTTAGE. Excellent work!

    Nancy, your home is absolutely adorable!! I love that you're so crafty and handy and only spend on the upgrades you know you can't do yourself. The kitchen sink, that really updated your space, but I know it was an investment. I love the faux brick wall, how creative. Your TH-cam channel really gives folks of retirement age financial encouragement for living on their own. This is truly a blessing, that you are sharing your beautiful home and the upgrades with us. For an AC option, you might think about a Mini-split. My husband had this installed in his shop, and it's very economical and cools amazingly in the Texas summer heat. I think it would be less expensive than an AC unit. His cools and heats his shop area. Thank you again for sharing, what a treat to see what you have accomplished on a budget.

You have done so many things to make it your own, and it feels like a happy home! The projects you've done are inspiring...my goodness what a transformation!! I noticed the dining room table decoration with the flowers from your last video... turned out so pretty for the new season! I just love your videos and look forward to the scriptures you select.

      She is wise to be renting in a privately owned park. Most of the huge mobile parks here in Arizona are owned by national companies. The rent goes up every year.😳 I have known of an older lady who had to move because she could no longer afford her rent & her son was not willing to subsidize the payment. All of her friends she made when living there for almost twenty years were so sad because she was truly distraught over moving into her son’s home in another state. The lot rent can be a huge concern for some folks.

      @Davis Holman I totally agree with you on the parks in AZ. I have a friend in Scottsdale whose park was deemed as tribal land a few years back.... now they are wrestling with what to do with all the homes there.
      My wonderful smart hubby had the foresight 35 years ago to insist we move onto a private acre, which we later bought. There's no real guarantee that even a family owned park won't sell for the right price to a huge buyer. It's all about $$$

    From the moment you step into your cheerful entry, it's like coming in from the cold...you instantly feel at home. I love the layout! It actually makes it seem like a double wide! My favorite room is the kitchen, with the Farmhouse sink and faux brick wall you created; as well as the over the stove cabinet to display your treasures. And your living room arrangement and furniture is lovley! So clever of you to create a "walkway" through the room, versus spreading the furniture all throughout the room. And no matter how lovely your dear home is [and it IS!], you are even lovelier, Nancy...such a calming presence and obvious love for the LORD. May He continue to bless and grow your channel--I see His hand in it already, judging by the many comments alone!!

    Hi Nancy, I love what you did to your kitchen. It's beautiful. Your whole home is. I live in western NY. I bought a new mobile home in 2017. It is 14 x 76. I did a lot of upgrades and the final price was almost $74,000. I live in a park in my town that has 16 homes. It is not 55 and older. I am 70. Our lot rent is $420 a month and that includes trash and snow removal. Our town bills water by the month and mine is usual under $1. In the summer it's usually double. We don't have to pay taxes. I put an addition on which is 10 x 20. We had a large home and I sold it when my husband passed and got the mobile home. With 6 kids and 12 grandkids, I needed the addition. I also got central air 4 years ago and that was $3600. I wouldn't be without it in a mobile home. It's fun to hear about prices and the different things in other parts of the country. Loved the video. Can't wait for the next one. Blessings, Charlene

I know you said you don't like the mirrors over the garden tub, but if you put up curtains and tie them back it would add interest to the room. Just a thought. Maybe lace white ruffle curtains.

    I just love your entry. Especially a coat closet in a single wide? I have that same print of the Shepherd holding the lamb with the nail pierced hands. You have so much storage!! And to live in a 55+ park! How wonderful.
    I moved here in 2002. A family owned and managed it. They were so delightfully strict. They had to sell in 2018 due to health reasons and a corporation bought it. My rent has gone from $165/month for 15 years to just under $500. It is raised yearly. This park is now on the decline. We don’t have a manager most of the time because the company won’t pay an adequate wage. I’m thankful I have my teacher retirement, social security, and will be 65 next February. Plus I substitute a lot.
    I LOVE my mobile home. It’s from a top Oklahoma manufacturer and it’s built like a stick built home. I’m so glad I found your channel. That you’re a single Christian lady (like me) means a lot! Have you ever watched the channel called Little Blessed Nest? Such a sweet couple.

    Hello from Iowa! I am new to your channel. You home is beautiful. You have decorated it gorgeously! I love your taste in decor. Thank you for sharing your home with us. I love that you study your Bible. I am also a strong believer in Christ Jesus and teach Sunday morning Bible study for a ladies class in our church. We have 13 to 15 ladies in the class that I teach. I also sing with our praise team in our church. I have been singing for the Lord since the age of 14. I was saved by the blood of the Lamb at the age of 12 years of age. My husband also teaches the College and Career class on Sunday mornings. He also works in the AV booth doing the slides each Sunday morning for our praise team and for our Pastor. I also craft making intricate dimensional cards and gift boxes and sometimes make my own envelopes for the less intricate simple cards. I also have a craft room on the second story of our home. It is a 12 x 12 room that my husband fixed up for me after our sons moved out of our house. We took our first trip out to Colorado Springs last year. I had always wanted to see the mountains of Colorado for a long time. We were there for 7 days. It was one of the best vacations we had ever taken. We were blessed to visit Focus on the Family while there. Our youngest daughter has a friend that lives in Colorado Springs and works at Focus on the Family. We enjoyed having the tour Mary provided for us. Thank you again for your wonderful video. God bless you as you continue to work on your home. He provides so wonderfully for our needs. Love and hugs from Iowa!

      Hi Maria! I very much enjoyed reading your comments. Thank you to you and your husband for your service to the Lord. I’m glad you enjoy crafting, and have your own space to do it. Colorado is a beautiful state. I’m happy you could enjoy some of it. Thanks for your kind words. God bless you!❤️

    LOVELY. As a child I lived a majority of my life in mobile homes. Back then (1970s-1980s) people were looked down upon for living in one. BUT, we were homeless multiple times growing up, and our mobile homes were castles to us. I wouldn't hesitate to live in one again. Your home is absolutely lovely. I'm a crafter/quilter/thrift store shopper. It's amazing what a coat of paint or some new curtains can do to a space.

    Too bad you cant take out that tub; unless you like taking baths. But, otherwise, its just a big waste of space. You could remove it and find a pretty French armoire to put there, and use it for storage space. ☺️👍
    Everything looks so up-scale, dear! ❤
    Thank you so much for taking the time to show us the progress.
