I have always loved the decoration, art, I painting, I the furniture, fabrics and how. The 'faux the fact the VE finishes in my house, however I' conventional classes never taken the VE and have decorated some of friends.   I the arts odd, unusual and creative. Metal, glass, wood plants. I 'heard the VE there' difference of SA between a home designer and a decorator. As a start off? I'm taking classes here and there, but it 's not the image complete. What kind of companies lavorereste or internereste for? I 'd to be on the wire blade of things unique and unusual. This would be my second career in life, so I 'd gradice it soon rather than later. ;) So, I love the planning of the party. It 's gradice decorate me, but you get to be more dramatic and change them often. I 'the VE made some showers and some wedding parties, but on a small scale.   You can make a living it, or is more than a hobby? And you have to be in a big city? I am in a city of average size but growing. Thank you

Starting your own business is hard work and long hours but worth the time and energy put into it. I know, I did it.

Design and print business cards from your puter. Office Max, etc. have a nice variety of card stock, in fact, they even had magnetic business cards you can print right from you puter. Design your flyers the same way.

Organization is key. But once you’ve let the public know you are in business, you should start getting jobs.

What busy Mom now days would love someone to plan their kid’s B-day party.

Also heard about a woman that will plan “Dates” for busy business men. Add that to your party planning business. You know, order the flowers, make the reservations, etc.

As busy as people are today, you should have enough business that after a while you may need to hire help!

Good Luck!

p.s. Word of mouth is the best advertising. Encourage the people who’s parties you’ve done to tell others. Offer a discount if they refer friends and relatives.
