"Barb, I just
couldn't wait to tell you how excited and ecstatic I was to receive all of
you're e-books and printed books. They were sensational; easy to read and
understand, filled with personal stories and experiences, and full of valuable
information. Most of all the personal support I received everytime I called.
You were always there. Thanks for brightening up my world with you're redesign
and decorating techniques. Judes Ziemba"
"Very positive experience. I appreciated the non-judgmental approach to assessing the problems and the way in which I was involved in
creating a new ambiance. I never, in a hundred years, would have come up with the arrangements. I am so pleased, I can't tell you. I love my new livingroom. - Lisa
Grace-Kellogg"
"Fantastic experience; made an unliving room, a personal place to greet and entertain. - Judge Mike Kellogg"

TESTIMONIAL FROM GOLD/DELUXE TRAINEE
"Decorating has been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember. Years ago
my Father said (like most Father's) find something you love to do and figure
out a way to get paid for it.
"I was in a successful business for years, but, I just didn't enjoy what I was
doing as much as decorating. I was always asked to help friends, family and
neighbors with their décor dilemma's and I really enjoyed that more then
anything I've ever done.
"Fast forward to February 2005 when I ran across Decorate-Redecorate.com online
and had the pleasure of talking with Barbara Jennings. I have to admit I usually
do my homework when I have to make a big decision and starting a new career is
a HUGE decision. However, my first conversation with Barbara Jennings and I
was sold.
"I started immediately and was completely blown away by the massive amount of
information in her course books. I can't tell you how impressed I was. I
couldn't put those books down and I felt so knowledgeable and more
prepared each page I read.
"Well, now we are well into July 2005 and I just received word that I am
officially certified and my certificate is on it's way. I'm still
pinching myself.
"I started working for a very successful real estate company in my area
and I am doing all of their home staging. There is no way I would
have been able to get this job if it wasn't for Barbara Jennings. She gave me
the knowledge and confidence to go for it. Barbara was there EVERY step
of the way. I also just got a job offer from one of the best interior
decorating companies in my area and I start in August. I have never been this
happy and I will always be so grateful to Barbara and Decorate-Redecorate.com.
"(By the way...the reason I received the job offer was because the owner had
heard through the grapevine that I took this course)." (Tina Beene, CRS)

"I just received your Silver Decorating Package (book form) in the mail on
Friday. Boy what a great resource! Thank you for sharing your wealth of
knowledge!" - Michele Losino
"I just finished reading it all (Decor Secrets Revealed). For me, it was very reaffirming.
Now I can better explain why things work that I had been doing by intuition.
I appreciated the step-by-step explanation, enjoyed all the before and after
photos, and was touched by your last chapter. Your patience and helpfulness
. . . God bless you for sharing what you have learned. Thanks again for
everything. - Julie Laffoon-Jackson"
"I was very pleased with the creative approach Barbara used with my living room. She moved things around in a way I hadn't considered before. I also
learned quite a bit about color and placement to go forward with my other rooms. Thank you, Barbara!" - Melissa O., Dana Point, CA
"Once again, thanks for your help. I just think this book is invaluable for
my business I'm trying to get off the ground . . . thanks again, Sharyn"
"Your training is wonderful. I wish I would have known about it when I started my business." - Robin Bond
"Konban-wa, Barbara. Arigato and thank you so much for your
useful, thoughtful advice. I'm sorry for being late to send you
back a thank you e-mail. I was so surprised when I first saw
your e-mail. There was Japanese! Since you have an experience
in living in Japan, you already know about our problems well.
. . . By the way, I'm from Kobe ( near Osaka). What
you advised me was what I had done for my room. That means, I
was doing the right thing, wasn't I? You encouraged me a
lot. Last week, I had my first client.
It was the very first time for me to do this job, so I offered
my dear friend re-design her room for free. The result, I was
right to choose this job for myself. Both my friend and I were
very happy with her new looking rooms. Thank you, again.
Barbara! You're wonderful and I'm proud of being your
trainee. I haven't finished your book yet. I
need to read on and on. I wish you have a beautiful
day. Oyasumi-nasai. your Japanese-trainee, Noriko"
"Hello Barbara! I just wanted to send you the link to my company's
website . . . and say
thank you again-without your wonderful training and guidance, I don't know if I
would've gotten to this point! I officially opened for business yesterday, and
through word of mouth I have 2 appointments booked for this week, and a
presentation booked for next week with a new real estate company! - Shelly Landry"
"Dear Barbara thank you very much, I can't wait to
finish reading your masterpiece! - Veronika Hollmannova"
"I am really enjoying these books. They are an excellent teaching guide. - Teri Morin"
"I can't tell you how many times I wanted to email you this last week and
just didn't have the time. Well, I home staged 2 homes last week and they both
sold already. I did a house on Wednesday and it sold on Thursday after the
"Broker's Open". It didn't even make it to "Open House" day. And by the way, the
agent who hired me said that all of the agents walking through the house on
Thursday kept asking who was the designer and could they get my card. I can't
tell you how great I feel. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS CAREER!!!! - Tina Beene"
"I have received the zip logo file. All the logos look great! I am very
grateful to you for doing so much more than what I expected. I know this
will help me convey a great image for my new business! - Carlina"
"Hello Barbara, I just purchased Advanced Redesign the other
evening, and have only had time to skim it so far (I'm in the throes of startup
for mid-May); and once again, I'm floored at what is in this e-book! Your
wealth of knowledge is positively mind-blowing!!!!! I don't know what I'd do
without you! You're my redesign guru! Keep up the fantastic work! All the best, Shelly Landry"
"Dear Barbara, I just received your 'Where There's a Wall - There's a Way' book and I also have your
'Decor Secrets Revealed' ebook and love them both. They have a lot of great suggestions and will be very helpful. - Millie Schara"
"I received yesterday my Deluxe Program so I also downloaded the ebook.
Wow! I am sooo pleased! I have learned more in one evening, night and this morning
(needless to say I got only 4 hours sleep) than I have in many, many hours of design
classes! I paged through everything very quickly, reading snip here and there.
Despite having worked for 7 1/2 years as a cabinet/closet/storage/kitchen designer
I realize now I have only been touching the tip of the iceburg of what I could and
should be doing to capitalize on my talents. I can't wait to read more! I'll let you know how my appointment goes. With much thanks, Mary Margaret Connolly"
Deluxe Gold Redesign Trainee
"Hi Barbara, I have been passionate about home redesign for 4 years and after completing
your training I was able to become a sought after home stager in addition to
redesign. Miracles Happen! I am now privledged to work with successful real
estate agents in my area. I have an ulterior motive. What is it? To lift my
clients spirits and help them provide a beautiful enviornment that is
pleasing for personal use or a top dollar sale of their property. Thank you
Barbara for helping craft my talent into a profession that offers service to
others in a tangible way. As a side benefit of being trained by the best, I
will have an article appearing in a magazine next month and have been listed
as the home stager referred and selected by some of the most prominent real
estate agents in my area (San Luis Obispo, California). All this is a direct
result of your training. - Maria Skellie"
"Barbara has redone
my family room and living room. Incredible work . . . what a talent . . . Rooms
look more spacious with an artistic taste to fine design. Great personality and
works with home owners in a friendly fashion. I love her and I love her work and
I'll recommend her work to anyone who wants great taste. - Nardine Iskander, Riverside, CA"

"Thank you for your prompt response. I am currently in the planning
stages of setting up my consulting services and your book is playing a
very large role. - Sam" Pro Art Consulting Trainee
"Dear Barbara,
Thank you for sharing your hard-learned lesson from a redesign
appointment that didn't turn out so well. I appreciate your honesty by
letting us see that not every appointment turns outs to be a great one. You
are a true mentor in this business.
God bless you! - Julie Laffoon-Jackson"
"I am extremely happy with the redecoration of my living room. Due to it's odd set-up, it was very difficult to arrange
the furniture to make the room look appealing and put together. Now, not only is it appealing and put together, it is perfect to entertain as well as make the most of the features
of the room. Barbara and her assistant were wonderful to work with and they worked with my style rather than try to make me conform. Thank you. - Desiree Kallaby, Laguna Niguel, CA"
Redesign Client
"I can't tell you how impressed I am and I haven't even finished half of
your materials. I look so forward to having my "Barbara" time everyday. I will
always be so grateful that after researching which route to take in my training,
I found you first. Being in the Wedding industry for so many years and writing a certification
course (approved by the state of California then going nationwide) I THOUGHT I
WAS THOROUGH! You blow me out of the water. I will keep in touch. Thank you for just being you." - Tina Beene
Deluxe/Gold Redesign Trainee
"Thanks so much for your quick work on rearraging our living room. I love
your three ideas. . . . I will be shopping for plants and art work for the walls. It may take a
little time to find just what I'm looking for. I'll send you the
finished product when we get done. I think I'll be totally thrilled with
my new living room. If I run into any problems, I'll let you know. Thanks
so much again. It is much appreciated. - Bonnie Grant" Private Consultation

"Thank you, thank you, thank you. Barbara, I am pleased with the way my first
project turned out. I can see that Decor Secrets Revealed was packed with
info, well I am just trying to stay calm until all the rest of the items
arrive. Currently, my friends are writing reference letters and quotes to
use when I start marketing, on all those pro bono redesigns. Thank you for
your response on the area rug question for occasional chairs.....When the
UPS truck comes I will be running out to it! Maria Skellie" Basic

"Studying your ebook and LOVING it so far. . . . The CD's are a wonderful tool to
help me on my way. - June Rouquette"
Also can I say that this vocation (being an art consultant) is a dream of mine, I am presently a technical sales manager in
construction dealing with architects. I have always loved art and am naturally artistic. We were going to set up a business anyway
but then I saw your book. Thankyou, thankyou... I have always wanted to do something that I would enjoy - this feels like a calling!
You, with this book have given me the mechanics to make it work. To pursue your dream is everyones hope. You have made it all the
more likely that I will make it work. I just couldn't believe my luck when I saw it!!!! So a big thanks, the rest is up to me.
You will never appreciate just how important your book is to my future in both a work and spiritual sense. - Cheers Chris Jones"

"My partner, Deborah, and I have been doing this for years and finally decided to get paid for it. We read your ebook and it has
helped us launch a very successful redesign business. No one else in our area offers these services! It is really like getting paid to have
fun! . . . With newspaper articles and speaking engagements, we have created a "buzz" in our area (previously untapped market) and
are desperately trying to keep up with the calls. Thank you for all your help! - Lisette

"Just had to write to you
at this point.....I've spent a good three hours on line reading my rearrange it
book and studying. I was feeling excited, overwhelmed, confused, spacy etc.
until I came to the part in your material regarding "cancellation of
appointments".....wherein you stated "It always helps to remind me that my
business is in God's hands and that He knew .....And since my business all
belongs to Him anyway, what would He want me to do about the cancellation and my
unexpected free time." Well, I can't tell you...the anxiety just lifted and I
got joyful tears in my eyes. Not only was that a timely reminder that ALL does
belong to the Lord and He has gifted me with this passion and ability to
"decorate" for His glory, but I was extremely delighted to hear you, my teacher,
acknowledge the same dependence and gratitute for His all knowingness. It was a
good question..."what would He want me to do with this unexpected free time?".
He does have a way of getting our attention. It's a good place to be. Thanks
for allowing me to hear from you and know you in this regard. - Anonymous"
"Dear Barbara, Thanks to your help, I
can get back to reading and studying your book, which I find very well written,

"Barb, Your monthly newsletters are amazing! Thank you for all your creative hard
work! I applied one of your tips from a previous newsletter (the one referring
to getting in front of women's organizations) and have recently been invited to
speak at one of our local Christian Women's Club Luncheons! You are truely inspiring." -
Kim Schindler
"Hi Barbara, I read your redesign
book and have enjoyed your newsletters. I have recently
signed with a real estate firm and want to open a second business of staging
homes for resale. Your article was
encouraging and informative. I am in homes all
the time and have had some design classes and really see the need for staging
homes. I feel it will be a
creative outlet for me and also creates follow up business in the real estate
field. Thank you for your
support, Gigi"
"Hi
bj, I am finding your
e-book so incredibly knowledgeable (PRO ART CONSULTING)! Dozens of questions come to mind and I can't
tell you how useful I find your answers. I hope you don't
mind if I pepper you now and then for some advice.. Thank you so
much, Ian Campbell"
"First I would like to tell you how much I have enjoyed
"Decor Secrets". I will need to go back over the
material several more times to feel confident with my
knowledge, which will enable me to have the ability to
develop strong performance skills. - Alyse Kelly"
"I first want to say a very grateful 'Thank-you!' for
such a wealth of information. I have always
redecorated for myself and for my friends, as well as
shopped for them, and considered myself a pretty
accomplished decorator, but I was stunned at the
detail in your materials! I am just in awe of the
quality of the products you've shared with me, and how
helpful they have been. . . . I am so very, very glad to have been able to find you,
and subsequently, as you know, have gotten just about
everything you offer! And I feel it is a great value,
especially with the offer of your personal advice down
the road. The case studies are incredible, as is
everything associated with your sites. I am feeling
much more confident about morphing my business into
that of color consulting, design, and faux. Thank you
so very much." - Nancy Gilbert Bello
"I have enjoyed your book and information tremendously. In fact I just got
a job to decorate a Doctor's living room in a tropical decor. If you have any
suggestions, good places where I can buy some accent furniture pieces I would
appreciate it. Thank you again for all your help. - Anna Mahling, Affordable Decor"
"I recently purchased Rearrange It and DS Revised, and am totally loving
both of them. I have been looking for something like this for quite some time. I
am so far very impressed with all that I have read. Thank you, Tami Jones"
"I'm really enjoying your book! (Pro Art Consulting!) I'm
very interested in art and art consultation. I'm
also interested in art brokering. Isn't
it amazing the heights to which art prices can soar, i.e., the recent Picasso
sale at Sotheby's? - Ian Campbell"
"I bought your book (Rearrange It!) and it is terrific! I've already
landed a big job using some of the marketing ideas you included in the
book. - Peggy Conger"
"I have thoroughly enjoyed your e-book, "Decor Secrets Revealed". It is exactly
what I was looking for. It has given me great confidence, and I am excited to
start the process of re-decorating (and in some instances decorating) each room
of our house. - Kathryn Landes"
"I mentioned before that I got so much
information from your ebook (I purchased the
manuals from the "fluffing" ladies and liked yours by far). Thanks for the great
tips . . . You really have a way of explaining
without beating around the bush. On a personal note, I would like to say thank you
most especially for a wonderful ending message - your analogy of redecorating
to our house and our own "selves" was really touching ... just this last chapter has made quite an impact on
how I view things. You're a great artist and decorator, but I feel you're an
even better person inside and out. - Lala Antonio-Almeida"
"Also, would you please let Barbara know how pleasantly surprised I was
to see Chapter 25, Life's Redecorating Lessons. She beautifully
presents The Gospel, uniquely applying it to re-decorating. Barbara, may God richly bless you as you
use your God given talents to further His kingdom! Blessings, Kathryn Landes"
"Barbara, your input has allowed me to confirm several concerns and put others to rest. Now,
I can enjoy and feel more comfortable with my decorating venture...at least, I know
I'm moving in the right direction.
I'm took particular notice to your warning that "the eye needs a place to rest".
. . . I am ever so grateful to you for your guidance; sharing your personal expertise
and your timely response to my questions...very helpful and deeply appreciated
. Thank you very much.
. . . Dotti Lu"
"Barb, You are a genius! I love these suggestions, and I think Amy will too.
..... I am soooooooooo thankful to have you in my life! I have learned so
much from you and I just feel you are getting the short end of the
stick. I wish I could do something for you in return. Thanks again for all of your help." - Jackie Ellison
"Wow -- I'm impressed with your quick response and great feedback! My husband
found your comments especially interesting, particularly the suggestion to
listen to him. Donald has a background in PR (among other things), and he's
always telling me to "Give them what they want, not what they need!",
and to streamline my business concept, at least initially. I'm sure I'll have more
questions, but I wanted to let you know that I really appreciate your reply. - Diane Tepper"
"I'm grateful that you have the attitude of trying to get us all forward
without being broke doing it. We'll all benefit in the long run. I guess I'm too
old (I'm almost 50) to believe that I have to make a huge profit right away from
everything. Some of the "courses " out there are put together, I think, by
people who couldn't make the business work for themselves so they decided to
charge others a ton of money and make it work that way. The old adage 'those
that can do, those that can't teach' comes to mind. You made it work and now
give direction. I'm grateful for that. - Jennifer Large"
"Just wanted to inform you that I successfully
downloaded your ebook (it only took 5 minutes using DSL connection) and have
started reading it. I can see why you get all those wonderful reviews, its
really informative. I bought some materials from the House Fluffing
ladies and I can see yours is a much better read. I like their materials too but
yours is more complete. Thanks, Warmest regards, Lala Almeida"
"Barbara, I'm on Chapter 9, and I'm most impressed! Your content
is excellent, well organized, and well explained. I especially enjoy your style
-- it's as if you're right there, guiding the reader along. I've already
learned quite a bit, as well as now having explanations for design principles
I'd merely intuited but could not have practiced consistently." - Linda Morrison Durant
"Hi Barbara, Thank you so much for your nice e-mail. I have been reading your e-books
this weekend and I am very excited. You have wonderful information. Sincerely, Mandy Ryan"
"Thank you for your personal reply. What a nice
surprise! Am about halfway through "Secrets" and am
impressed. I really like the short, punchy chapters and the way you clearly
explain how you analyze architecture and the reasons for placing what
where. Best to you, Lauren Schwarz"
"Wow, I am floored that you actually read that and responded! Very impressive." - Maria Hathcock, Hathcock Studio
"I am truly enjoying your e-book on
re-arranging furniture! I’ve already
rearranged my small family room according to your more advanced layout! I plan to take before and after pictures and
send them along to you just as soon as I get a few accessories to “fill in” the
new look! Thanks for your great information! I knew when something
looked wrong or right, but it is only now that I know why! How empowering. I’m catching the
bug! - Carolyn Quevy"
"By the way -- I really did enjoy your other book "Decor Secrets Revealed" which I purchased
a few months ago. I learned more from your book about furniture arrangement than I did through my
formal studies in interior decorating! - Sherry Pevey"
"Barbara, Thank you for your quick response. ... I will enjoy
reading this book, I have just started up my own redecorating business in New
Jersey along with faux painting and window treatments. I was wondering why
everyone was paying $3,000.00 for a week of classes and thought what a very
expensive little club these women have started. I took interior design in
college and didn't feel the urge to pay someone else that price when I already
knew interior design. I wanted to know what else I could possibly be enlightened
on and looked up class criteria on some of the websites. I was hoping that
someone, like yourself, would share the info in a book form.
Thanks again and I will enjoy the book. - Regards, Robin LaMonte"
"Thanks so much. Just a few words from you makes all the difference. It makes me look forward to
finishing the room rather than before getting stalled and just giving up. You have made such a
difference in my life. I get excited just looking at fabric, because now I am beginning to see how it
all fits together. If my husband's billfold just holds out I'll be okay. "ha" "ha" Thanks again
for you help. - Jackie Ellison"

your help and cooperation. - Patti Snyder"
"Thank you for your quick return on my room layouts. I was so pleased to be able to
start working on both rooms right away! I appreciated your additional insights.
You really helped me see the room "within the room." I've been re-hanging all my artwork
and pictures all over the house using the tips you gave me. Our neighbors keep thinking
that we purchased new mirrors and accessories! It's so ironic that nobody could see these
items before, but now they are the first things noticed!" - Kimberlin Harrison Advice by Mail
"Barbara, thank you so much for the quick response. It was great
to be able to connect with someone who has been "down this road." When I went
to the client appointment, I was confident and professional. Then I became a
little insecure when I didn't have the answers to my questions. Thank you
for all your good advice, both in written ebook format and email
response!" - Sandra Holman Rearrange It!
"I know I am saving a great deal of money here. I looked at all those
organizations and they want thousands of dollars for little 3 to 5 day
courses as you spoke of. Seems a great deal of money just to be listed in
their organizations which I guess anyone can start up." - Carolyn Preston Rearrange It!

doesn't notice anything about the house unless it involves "his" chair! . . .
I retained more of the book than I

sitting in the dining area to share our day with each other, we are going to
sit in our 'new' living room. Much more comfortable!!!!!" - Sandy Finch Decor Secrets Revealed

"I just finished reading and taking notes on the Ebook. I loved every
minute of it.!!! It was well worth . . . it. I
went yesterday to help a friend redo her family room. I had helped her redo her
living room last year and armed with my new knowledge on area rugs, I ran to
Walmart of all places to pick up one in the 4X6 size to see how it would look in
front of her sofa. Voila !!! The perfect color, the perfect size, it was made
for the room. I was so excited that I was the one jumping up and down and she
was laughing. I did take before pics of the family room, we rearranged that,
but she wanted me to stop as she didn't want me to make it too cute or her
husband would not let her get new furniture ... so, we will deal with the new
stuff as we get it. Thanks so much for everything and all of your easy to
read and easy to understand concepts." - Follow Up from Sue Mortensen
"Thank you for sticking in there with me and being so kind and helpful. I just
know that your book will be perfect for me. I am always being called on to help
someone rearrange their furniture and help them decorate. I figured that it was
about time that I learned what I was doing. I know when things look right, but
not the rules or ... well, you know. But, I will keep in touch and I know that I
will enjoy every word. Thank you again." - Sue Mortensen
"I really appreciate your good customer service . . . I'm so excited - thank you, thank you, thank you.
. . . Thank you so much Barbara for all of your
help. You really took care of me - you 'served' me instead of just 'selling'
me! You're already a great teacher! Well, you might be hearing from me
again - I really hope to make this business a go. Once again, thank you for
your outstanding "client" service." -- Casandra R.
