FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


LOCAL DECORATOR SELECTED TO
TEST INTERIOR DESIGN SOFTWARE

Denton, Texas – April 3, 2009 – Carol Collins, the owner of Carol’s Custom Draperies & Interiors in Denton, has been selected as one of 58 national interior designers and decorators to test a new version of Minutes Matter Studio software. There are about 4,000 users of this software in the U.S. Collins is the only designer in Texas participating in the beta test.

Minutes Matter Studio is a computer software program that allows designers to digitally create custom designs that can be individualized by importing actual fabrics, wallpapers, paint colors, and pictures of furniture into the program. Decorators can design directly on a photograph of the client’s room or import specific elements from the room into a custom drawing. The software also has a space planning program for designing room layouts.

Carol has been using the software in her business for the past 5 years. “It’s an incredible program that enables me to show my clients how a new window treatment will look on their windows, what a specific color might look like on their walls, or even how different furniture would look in their rooms - before any fabrication or work begins. It is really exciting to actually have a voice in the development of this software!” For more information on the software, visit www.minutesmatterstudio.com.

Carol’s Custom Draperies & Interiors offers a full array of interior decorating services including Custom Window Treatments and Bedding, Custom Decorative Pillows, Design Services, Room Layouts, Designer Wallpaper, Upholstery, Shutters, Blinds and Shades.
