I have always had a knack for interior decorating\u2014it\u2019s something that I have always loved. When I was in high school, I wanted to become an interior designer. But I convinced myself that because I wasn\u2019t good at math, I would never succeed. Fast forward ten years, and I\u2019ve found myself still loving interior design so much that I decided to look for some online decorating courses I could take. When I found QC Design School, I knew it was the perfect fit!\n<h3>Why did you decide to start a professional interior decorating career?<\/h3>\nInterior decorating comes naturally to me, and I love every aspect of it. I want to help others accomplish their decorating goals. After many family and friends told me to take a course and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.qcdesignschool.com\/2016\/10\/heres-expect-road-interior-decorating-certification\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">earn my interior decorator certification<\/a>, I finally decided I wanted to do it. I figured that since my family and friends always came to me for advice on decorating their homes, why wouldn\u2019t others?[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=&#8221;No Line&#8221; custom_height=&#8221;40&#8243;][image_with_animation image_url=&#8221;16139&#8243; alignment=&#8221;&#8221; animation=&#8221;None&#8221; border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; box_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; max_width=&#8221;100%&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;in_container&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; shape_divider_position=&#8221;bottom&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221;][vc_column column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; tablet_width_inherit=&#8221;default&#8221; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221;][vc_column_text]\n<h3>How would you describe your decorating style?<\/h3>\nI always find this question so interesting because I always say my style is actually a mash-up of decorating styles. My decorating style has evolved since I first enrolled in the Interior Decorating course. A few years ago, I was strictly decorating my home in the farmhouse decorating style. Today, I would say my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.qcdesignschool.com\/2018\/06\/from-country-to-contemporary-the-wide-variety-of-interior-decorating-styles\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">interior decorating style<\/a> falls somewhere in-between Scandinavian and modern with an eclectic, farmhouse twist. If I could build my own home from scratch, I would definitely categorize it as a \u201cModern Scandinavian Farmhouse\u201d.\n<h3>You\u2019re also enrolled in QC\u2019s Home Staging and Color Consultant courses. How do you keep yourself motivated to in your studies?<\/h3>\nI had to take a break from my home staging and color consultant courses when I <a href=\"https:\/\/www.qcdesignschool.com\/2017\/08\/start-interior-decorating-business\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">started my interior decorating business<\/a>. There is a lot of work that comes into starting your own business. Now that I\u2019ve registered my business, O.H.D Interiors, and have gotten it off the ground, I am ready to finish my courses! I only have one unit left to complete for the Home Staging course. I am aiming to complete it by the end of the month.[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=&#8221;No Line&#8221; custom_height=&#8221;40&#8243;][image_with_animation image_url=&#8221;16138&#8243; alignment=&#8221;&#8221; animation=&#8221;None&#8221; border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; box_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; max_width=&#8221;100%&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;in_container&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; shape_divider_position=&#8221;bottom&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221;][vc_column column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; tablet_width_inherit=&#8221;default&#8221; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221;][vc_column_text]\n<h3>What\u2019s one thing you wish you knew before starting your interior decorating certificate course?<\/h3>\nOne thing I wish I knew before starting the interior decorating certificate course would be that it is not easy! Juggling full-time work and online courses is tough. Since it is an online program, that is a go-at-your-own-pace style, you really must have the drive to complete the course. If you don\u2019t want it bad enough, you won\u2019t do it.\n\nOne thing I would tell someone who\u2019s considering taking interior decorating classes online would be to set goals for yourself. Make sure you have a timeline of when you want to complete the course by and make it happen.\n<h3>Are there any career highlights you\u2019d like to share?<\/h3>\nThe super rewarding moment I had was when I completed the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oneroomchallenge.com\/orc-blog\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">One Room Challenge<\/a> this past spring. For those who don\u2019t know, it\u2019s a six week \u201cchallenge\u201d where you start and complete a one room re-design project.\n\nFor this challenge, <a href=\"https:\/\/organizedhomedecor.com\/2019\/05\/08\/office-sewing-room-makeover-one-room-challenge-week-6\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">I re-decorated my grandmother\u2019s office\/sewing room<\/a>.

I was 27 at the time and working a full-time job. I <a href=\"https:\/\/www.qcdesignschool.com\/2018\/02\/interior-decorating-schools-online-vs-class\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">didn\u2019t have time to go to school and sit in a classroom<\/a>.\n\nI chose QC Design School over others because I really liked that their courses are self-paced. I knew that if something came up and I couldn\u2019t complete certain assignments by a specific time, it wasn\u2019t a big deal\u2014as long as I did them eventually.\n<h3>How do you think QC\u2019s interior decorating course has prepared you to work in the field?<\/h3>\nQC\u2019s Interior Decorating course prepared me to the work field in the best way because it has actual <a href=\"https:\/\/www.qcdesignschool.com\/online-courses\/interior-decorating\/#course-outline\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">business modules<\/a> tied into the course. The business part of the program wasn\u2019t mandatory; however, I decided to take them because I knew how beneficial they would be. Without the business part, I don\u2019t think I would have been confident enough to dive right into starting my own decorating business.\n\nI highly recommend anyone taking these courses to complete the business modules as well![\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=&#8221;No Line&#8221; custom_height=&#8221;40&#8243;][image_with_animation image_url=&#8221;16147&#8243; alignment=&#8221;&#8221; animation=&#8221;None&#8221; border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; box_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; max_width=&#8221;100%&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;in_container&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; shape_divider_position=&#8221;bottom&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221;][vc_column column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; tablet_width_inherit=&#8221;default&#8221; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221;][vc_column_text]\n<h3>What\u2019s on the horizon for your interior decorating business in 2019 and beyond?<\/h3>\nI love this question because I have so many dreams for 2019 and beyond. By the end of 2019, I would love for O.H.D Interiors to be a known company within my community.
