The Fall 2009 Mount Sinai Adult Education Program booklet is out and my class for this session is Furniture Placement {see description below}. You do not have to be a resident of Mount Sinai to participate in this program. This class is 1- 1/2 hours, not 2 hours as listed in the booklet.
Furniture Placement
Ms. Kathy Passarette HS 107
Not sure how to place your furniture in a room? Purchasing
new furniture and not sure what pieces to get?
Making interior design choices in your home can be
overwhelming and stressful. This class will look at
these questions and more. Learn how to place your
furniture to its best advantage in your home. Bring
photographs of your rooms and furniture for some
helpful ideas and tips from a professional decorator.

Kathy, It sounds like you're giving an interesting class....I'll bet you have a wonderful turnout! Have fun with it.
Thanks Carole! The Fall classes usually do and this is a new topic based on previous class participant requests. Should be a good one!
Sounds like a fun class Kathy! I am guessing they will love bringing in photos for you to help them with too.
Michele ~ Thanks! They always do ~ since the first one I always make the last half hour of the class time for questions and answers. It's nice.
Sounds like this class will be fantastic, Kathy. I wish you great success with it. Let us know how it goes.
Hope you have a good turn out!
Thank you, Mary! I need to get myself in gear and start putting things together - October will be here before I know it!
Thanks, Allegra! They usually turn out to be just the right amount of people.
This is a great idea Kathy! Sounds like you've done similar classes before? Did you get referrals for actual jobs from the classes? Thanks for sharing.
Thanks, Debra! I have been doing them for about 3 years now {or 3 Spring & Fall classes}. Every once in a while one of the class attendees will call for a consultation, but it's not a business maker.
That is so smart!!! Do you get any resulting business from the class attendees? Great way to offer a service to your community and promote yourself.
Not so far, Tori Lynn, but you never know! We have a few 55+ developments here, with people down-sizing and I get a few of those homeowners, but most of the people who come love decorating anyway, so they probably try things on their own.
I need to find the essay order service for my blog and site! It is very much important
