"Decor&You made it their priority to meet my design needs. From incorporating furniture that I wanted to keep, to ensuring the house design met both my design tastes and my family needs. They also were invaluable when it came to window coverings. They helped me with window treatments for two very different window styles, in two different rooms, both visible from a common area in my home. They designed, made, and installed two beautiful window treatments, meeting all my expectations while tying in the design style of my home."

"I found Decor&You by "chance" on the internet. From the first contact, to pick out blinds, I have been treated to the highest level of customer service. I've been working with Decor&You over the past year and their decorating expertise has transformed our home into one that is truly amazing. Decor&You has helped us find rugs, blinds, valances, paint colors, mirrors, and lights. We are currently remodeling our Master Bathroom with hands-on assistance from Decor&You. I would highly recommend Decor&You for any decorating needs. They are a joy to work with on projects!"

For many years, Linnore Gonzales has enjoyed decorating her own home as well as helping family and friends with decorating solutions for their homes. Always a business-minded person, Linnore recognized a great opportunity to partner with Decor&You. A strong believer in the benefits of a franchise, it was an easy decision for her to join the Decor&You company in 2002. "Being part of a franchise organization allows me to be in business for myself but not by myself."
"Decor&You's extensive training program, including a study of advance design concepts with internationally acclaimed author and designer, Mary Gilliatt, access to hundreds of reputable vendors in the industry and a national marketing program, are just some of the many benefits of being a franchisee", explains Linnore. Linnore believes in listening to her client's needs to be able to offer design solutions that reflect their individual tastes, functional needs, time constraints and budget requirements. "A personalized DecorPlan™", notes Linnore, "that is tailored to the client's style, budget and time frame, is very important to help them achieve the results they desire and avoid costly decorating mistakes."
In 2006, Linnore expanded her Decor&You business by launching Exciting Windows!™, the nation’s authoritative, one-stop resource for window fashion experts and the most extensive collection of custom window treatments in the world. Exciting Windows by Decor&You features unbeatable four-way service guarantees: on-time appointments, best quality workmanship, 10-year product performance, and guaranteed best pricing for equivalent products, brands and service. In 2007, Linnore expanded her territory in Colorado by becoming a Territory Director for the Southeast Metro Denver region that includes areas in Highlands Ranch, Castle Rock, Castle Pines, Littleton, Lone Tree and Aurora.
