Trade Sample Books (Fabric/Wallpaper/Paint)

11 years ago

Hi all,
I am interested in setting up my own business in Interior Design. I'm just wondering what is the best way to get trade sample books of fabric/wallpaper/paint. I realise they probably cost. Just looking for some healthy advice on getting started. I studied Interior Design a few years ago and wasn't ready at the time for various reasons and now feel it's my time to do something I feel passionate about.
