RSS Changes
Unfortunately someone has decided to steal my post using my RSS feed, at least that is my guess. Because of this I will be implementing some changes starting with the feed not publishing the full post. I was asked by a few readers at one point to allow the whole post in, but people take advantage of this and use it for their own gain. I work very hard on the post I make and hate that someone can come in and steal my hard work so that they can make money. I have tried to report them with no luck.
This is the last post I will make with the full RSS feed. After this one I will be changing it to a partial feed.
Again if you are not reading this on ABC’s Of Fine Design, then this post is on the website stealing from me and others. They are trying to make money off of Google ad’s. This Interior design content, like all web content is copyrighted.
Fall Decor and Your Home
Fall will soon be here in the northern hemisphere and I for one am very excited. I love the fall season with all of the bright colors on the trees and the unique decorating ideas that come with it. If your someone who is afraid of color now is the perfect time to add a little into your decor with fall accents.
Colors for fall are brown, green, yellow, orange and red. Deep rich colors that really can work with almost anything. Adding a fall arrangement to your table or mantel can really add a festive feel to your home. Fall after all is the time of harvesting and abundance, even if the economy says otherwise. You can also add a fall wreath to your door, I have one that has bright orange leaves and a brown backdrop. I love the way it looks once all of the trees around us start to change. Don’t be afraid to add a little color to your home, really it’s worth it and can keep your spirts up as winter starts to set in.

Starting A Decorateing Business
I have been thinking of starting a decorating and house staging business. I think it may be the best way for me to get the experience I need to get into a good company. I know that sounds strange but because many states require that I take and pass the NCIDQ (National Council for Interior Design Education) I need to have 2 years of work experience under someone who also has passed the test, so now you see where my thinking comes in.
Anyway I think if I can prove that I can handle clients and work with people it may help me land that job after I graduate. Home stageing is something I have always been interested in so it works well for me. I have spent some time thinking of ways I can get the word out once I can get things going. I thought sending business christmas cards or general holiday cards to people from a mailing list might help me get some interested clients. I want to do something different and unique that will get their attention. I may even include a discount coupon or something. The good thing is that I wouldn’t have to charge a ton of money for it either. I could do a free walk though and then offer the price for my services.
