When someone describes you do they mention your flair for decorating? Are
you constantly coming up with new ways to show off your living space? Do you
love colors and fabrics? Can you get people excited about bringing rooms
together to make them work? If you answered yes to these questions you may be
the perfect candidate for a work at home decorator.
If you are a stay at home Mum, you know the feeling of wanting to
contribute to the family. You want to be a part of something that is happening.
You may have had a busy career and took time off to raise a family. The
confines of the house are just too much. You need to spread your wings and be
creative once again. The problem is you need to be at home as much as possible
for your children. There is a way to have a career and stay at home at the same
time.
By taking your style and creativity and channeling it into a business, you
can take care of the family and have a wonderful career. Being a work at home
decorator is not for everyone. You first need to assess yourself. By being
completely honest you can determine if this is the career for you. You will
need to ask yourself some very important questions. For example:
1) Can you work well by yourself, or do you need guidance?
2) Are you good
with people?
3) Can you manage your time efficiently so you can work and make a
home for your family?
4) Are you familiar with hard work and rejection? When it
comes to projects, can you compromise to make everyone happy and get the job
done?
5) Do you have a keen sense of style and fashion?
6) Are you good with
color coordination and making patterns and designs work for you?
7) Does your
living space look up to date and trendy, or just plain and drab?
8) Do you have
a good eye for decorating and design?
Once you know the answer to these questions, you can get a better idea of
whether you can be a work at home decorator. Interior design is a challenging
business. Just because you like a certain pattern or color does not mean
someone else will. You must be able to work independently with little or no
information about your clients. Many times you may only be told to redecorate
an office with no ideas of whether it is a man or a woman. You do not know
their likes or dislikes. You do not know any special needs they may have. This
is where your people skills come into play.
By speaking to the people around the design area you may be able to get a
feel for the type of person you are designing for. You can add personal touches
which will make the space feel homier.
Colors and patterns do not always go well together. If you do not know how
to mix and match, then it will do no good to pursue an interior design career.
You must know what color swatch will work with what wallpaper. You will need to
understand lighting and coloring. You need to know how to make a room get
noticed as a work of art and not just some place to sit and watch television.
This gift is what would make you perfect as a work at home decorator.
