Entrepreneur Mom Starts Interior Design Craze

A mom in Detroit, Michigan has solved a problem that many do-it-yourselfers face when they complete a basement remodeling project. While looking at the unsightly basement support pole in the middle of the room, Laurie Coleman, Pole-Wrap inventor and president, wanted to cover it with an attractive material. After an unsuccessful trip to an interior design store, she came up with an idea. She created a pole wrap that imitates a beautiful wood covering.

Interior Design: The Pole Wrap

• How It's Made. The Pole Wrap is made of strips of redwood that are glued to a flexible wooden back.
• Reasonable Price. Pole-Wraps come in a selection of materials that range in price from $39.95 to $149.99.
• Major Carriers. The Pole-Wrap interior design piece is carried at Home Depot, Lowes, and several online outlets.
