                  As compensation to Interiors for its management and advisory
                  services to Decor under this Agreement, Decor agrees to pay to
                  Interiors an annual fee (the "Management Fee") equal to the
                  greater of (i) $90,000 or (ii) 1 1/2% of the Excess Cashflow

                  held by it or its affiliates in favor of Matthew Harriton, or
                  his nominee, as a director of Decor, at any and all meetings
                  of stockholders called for the purpose of electing directors,
                  or any written consent of

                  stockholders in lieu thereof, during the period commencing on
                  the date hereof and ending on December 31, 1999.
                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Mr. Harriton
                  notifies Interiors in writing that he declines to stand for
                  election to the Board of Directors, and declines to identify a
                  nominee, Interiors shall not be bound by its obligations under
                  the preceding sentence.

                  So long as Decor fails to have Excess Cashflow of not less
                  than four million dollars ($4,000,000) as of December 31
                  during any given fiscal year prior to December 31, 1999,
                  Interiors will not cause Decor to make, nor shall Decor make,
                  any payments, of any kind, to Interiors, its subsidiaries or
                  affiliates, or to any third party on behalf of or for the
                  account of Interiors, without first receiving the approval of
                  the Board of Directors of Decor.

         3.       Paragraphs (B) and (C) of this Amendment shall survive the
termination of the Existing Agreement.

         4.       This Amendment shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to principles
of conflicts of law.

         5.       Except as otherwise specifically set forth herein, all of the
terms and provisions of the Existing Agreement shall remain in full force and
effect.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have executed this Amendment as of
the day first above written.
