Can You Design Primitive Country Themed Rooms?

There are many pros and cons to being an interior designer - especially if you take a major, such as primitive country decor.

To best understand whether or not you might be interested in being a country interior designer you may want to explore the items listed below as a starting point.
 
PROS vs CONS

  • There is a great potential to make a lot of money, BUT the decorator industry goes through dry spells. The economy plays a big part in this.
  • You are uninhibited in your potential to advance, BUT the work can be quite stressful.
  • You can make your own hours BUT deadlines can be aggressive and difficult.
  • You are your own boss BUT your client's ideas may be unrealistic.
  • There is always a demand for primitive country designers BUT you will often work under pressure to perform.
  • You are free to be creative and express yourself BUT you are also responsible for your employees' creative spurts.
  • You can work as much or as little as you want BUT you may encounter difficult people as clients.
  • You have the option of turning down projects BUT you may also lose prime projects to lower bids from other decorators.

This should have given you a pretty good idea of what you may generally expect from your career as a designer. You may be wondering how the economy plays a role in this particular career choice.

The answer is simple. If the local or national economy is going through a recession, or depression, the potential to encounter any new clients is rather small if at all.

Current clientele cannot afford to hire an interior designer if the economy is suffering, no one can. In times like this, people are a lot more careful about how they spend their money, and hiring an interior designer seems more frivolous than it might seem under normal circumstances. Of course, during most economic conditions, an interior designer can always locate someone that is willing and eager to hire them.
