5 Reasons to Hire a   
          Decorator

Hiring a decorator for
your  interior decorating
project will save you more
money than you ever
expected!

1. My trade-only discount at
retailers will save you up to
50%. Even with my
fee...
you still save!

2. I know where to shop.
I know which retailer has
the best price on a particular
piece.

3. Before making any retail
purchase, I always do an
online check, sometimes
finding the same piece at
half the price.

4. Buying the correct item
the first time saves time and
money.

5. Your valuable time. I do
all the running around!
