Decorators choose colors, furniture, and other items to make homes reflect the style of their owners. They may decorate new homes or redecorate rooms in existing houses, either for personal enjoyment or to sell them. Some home builders and developers hire interior designers to complete their model homes before they are ready for the public to view them, as this helps prospective homeowners visualize how they might use each room in a new home.
To find model home decorating jobs, look for positions in companies that design and build new homes, real estate firms, or retail stores. You can also find opportunities at home staging companies, which help homeowners sell their homes by preparing them for the market with new furnishings and decorations.
