Interior Design is Just Like I Imagined


I am being interviewed this week by several interior design students from different colleges (part of their homework assignments). I was thinking about how I could tell them what it is like to be an interior designer and thought I would show them my week.

Monday:  I shopped for drapery hardware and installed drapes. I figured out that we needed a few more panels, so I placed that order. Those will be installed next week.
Tuesday:  I delivered four red chairs that I was able to sell because of the Dream Room Competition. Then I visited a client to check on our progress and decide on the accessories we still need to purchase.

 

Wednesday: The salon project was completed and we passed on the keys. I then met with a new client for a kitchen remodel. I wrote and sent out the contract.
 

Thursday: Picked up the last of the supplies for the little ADA bathroom and met with our carpenter to get all the little details just right. I also picked up this cute child’s chair from the upholsterer for one of our littlest clients.

 

Friday: Rushed around to get all the supplies for a color consultation and then meet with the client to pick just the right color.  I picked up some hand drawings for a drafting project.
Then, of course, there was paperwork, bill paying, phone calls, blogging and tasks for ASID for which I am the financial director.

I wonder if this is what they think it will be like. I think it is just like I imagined and dreamed.

  1. French sauces are the secret ingredient that transforms ordinary meals into extraordinary culinary experiences. From the classic béarnaise to the tangy vinaigrette, these sauces add depth, flavor, and elegance to dishes of all kinds. Whether drizzled over a crisp salad or smothered on a juicy steak, sauces elevate every bite to new heights of gastronomic delight. With their rich textures and complex flavors, they're a testament to the artistry and ingenuity of French cuisine.
