Interiors by Decorating Den Franchise

Mobile interior decorating service

In 1969 Steve Bursten started Interiors by Decorating Den to offer interior decorating services to working couples and individuals who didn't have the time to shop for home d'r themselves. Today franchisees work out of custom-designed vans, bringing drapery, furniture, carpet and wall covering samples to the customer's home or office. There the franchisee helps the customer select everything from window treatments to furniture to artwork.

All franchisees go through 80 hours of initial training at Decorating Den Lifestyle University. That is followed up by six months of classroom work, home study, meetings, seminars and on-the-job training that may include working with an experienced decorator.
