[scissor sis]

hi i'm thinking of going on an interior design course or doing one at home.the course is going to cost around about 300-500. has anyone been on one? i really enjoy designing rooms and want to learn more about materials and decoration but don't want to do it as a living! do you think i'm wasting my money!?

its hard to say if you will be wasting your money or not i did a herbalist course that cost me �350 and to be quite honest i could have learned it from a book..if i had applied myself at the time..the certificate i got is of no use to me as you have to train to doctors standards to prescribe herbal medicine,,i did enjoy doing it but i have since learned more myself from hands on research..doing a home study course is lonely and you have no one to ask questions of,,also their are a lot of people advertising such courses that are only interested in the money,,i would have a seriouse think and see if you purchased books and tried to redecorate one room at a time if you could learn more yourself..i also did 3 tarot courses at home but i was working in that area at the time so i found them interesting..i was also recently thinking of doing another herbalist course this time more on the gardening side but i have thought a lot about it and i know that its pointless as i have lots of books and probably allready know most things..i think at the time i just wanted the motivation what a course can give you...but i can put the money to different uses..hope you do what is right for you...gypsy

Can you not do a course at a local college part time for a fraction of the cost?

Interior design is not a time wasting thing. It's a great way for earning the extra money. If you enjoy designing rooms, you can go through the various designing material including the lighting fixture.

I used to do the interior decorations by placing decorative artworks in my home. You can use the African wall art to decorate your home. The African masks, wall arts and wall decor are popularly used by people to decorate their home. It is used by people as a antique artworks and they place them in the center place of their living room or in the wall as a showcase. These decorative pieces often use the colorful artistic designs. If you are going to use them to decorate your home, you should buy them in the colors which match the theme of your home. Using contradictory design most often will not work. You can also buy a collection of artworks and paint your home with color that matches the artworks.
