I just stumbled upon the Kentucky double-wide mobile home of Theresa and Craig Smith, that was featured in Country Living, and I am utterly in awe of it. The Smiths run an antiques business and travel most of the year, selling at shows around the country, and have decorated their home with what they've found along the way. Their 2,016-square-foot home is chock full of salvaged materials and antiques, and is, to say the least, very inspiring.
It's the epitome of shabby chic, and certainly challenges the negative stereotypes associated with mobile homes. I'm still baffled somehow at why this couple is living in a double-wide; I guess it makes sense for a couple that travels most of the year, though. The beautiful images speak for themselves, so click below to get the full tour.

It is a little overcrowded for my taste, but it is beautiful.
1I want to see a picture of the outside too.
2Beautiful interior but I too want to see outside!!!
3I love shabby chic, but this just doesn't do it for me.
4I think it's great and all of the white floor and walls are fab. They make the other colors and texture contrasts really pop.
5Overcrowded yes, but when you take some time to look at everything it is pretty interesting
6Wow that's a mobile home!
7I love the fact that they live in a mobile home. There's always been a stigma attached to families who live in them and this is probably like a slap in the face to the people who think that way!
Also I've always kind of liked cluttered homes like this, they have a certain charm to them
8It's pretty...love all the white.
9Wow- wish there was a pict of the outside! Looks big for a mobile!
10This is amazing! If I lived in a double-wide this is what I would want it to look like!
11it is a bit overcrowded but beautiful. I do love all the white walls and the one red room. I would never have know that this was a trailer home!
12Inside is easy to make fab, but the outside is another story. I wish I could see what they did to it. They seem pretty creative.
13what's wrong with a double wide! I grew up in one and ...look! I went to college and I even know how to type!
