One of the many updates that we have looked forward to adding in our home is window trim. Several years ago, we did a complete remodel on the exterior of our manufactured mobile home.

Just basic, simple touches that make our home feel cozy and look nice. I remember being afraid of power tools and saws but I quickly learned that I love being able to do things myself.
