Home Decor Ideas and Tips Shared in Podcast Workshop by Diva of Decoration


(PRWEB) August 19, 2005

Mary Cynthia Knowles, “Diva of Decorating” and creator of Decorate by Design, has recorded a podcast workshop consisting of a series of actual interviews with a customer sharing home decor ideas and buying secrets. The video workshop, available online, covers a do-it-yourself decorator’s questions about how to avoid “decorating disasters”—finding a way through the bewildering maze of home decor “good deals” and retail claims while saving time and money by avoiding trial and error.

“Almost everyone I meet as a client or in my home decor classes has experienced at least one ‘decorating disaster’: the disappointment and frustration in spending large amounts of money and time on results they aren’t happy with,” said Knowles. “Many people secretly admit they are afraid to take a chance with their home décor ideas because of the uncertainty of how to do it. They settle for less, when they could have a much more beautiful home for the same—or less—money.”

The Mary Cynthia Knowles podcast workshop for home decor ideas contains over seven hours of professionally edited videos to paint a picture about each area of home decor: matching colors, buying and arranging furniture and carpet, window treatments, home accents and much more, including 30 minutes of buying tips alone. With Mary Cynthia Knowles’ video workshop for home decor ideas, tips, and tricks, watchers can learn:
