Meet Sara Ghalayini — founder and the creative force behind our home décor designs

Don’t settle for ordinary when your home can feel extraordinary.

I’m Sara, Founder and Head Designer.

I believe your home should reflect who you are, what you value, and how you want to feel every day.

It’s not just about furniture. It’s about how your space supports your life, your rituals, and your dreams.

We all go back home.
I ask you—what kind of home do you want to go back to?

Wherever you are, when your home reflects your soul, you feel truly at home.

That’s what we’re here to create.
That’s our promise to you.

Clients Reviews

  • When we moved to our new home near the beach I had a vision on what we wanted for our open concept living room but wanted a professional eye to help us. Sara turned out to be the perfect person to provide the help and support we needed. She was very professional and created a perfect design with recommended furnishings and decor. We highly recommend Sara if you are looking for an awesome interior designer!

  • I recently used A Thing For Styling to help decorate both my children's room, dining room and the guest bedroom, and I couldn't be happier with the results! The designs were incredibly attentive to my needs, offering creative ideas that perfectly suited each space. The attention to detail and ability to balance style with functionality was outstanding. I highly recommend A Thing For Styling for anyone looking to elevate their home with beautiful, thoughtful design!

  • Sarah was amazing to work with on my kitchen design. She did an awesome job staying within budget and finding “looks for less” pieces that are great quality. She was very responsive and continued to tweak things to make sure everything was just right for me and my family. I can’t wait to see everything come together now that I have my selection links. I highly recommend working with her. It’s been a great experience and I’m looking forward to our next project together.

  • I was hesitant about working with a designer virtually. Sara FAR exceeded my expectations. She listened to what was important to me and brought together my vision. She is responsive, detailed and offered multiple options in a variety of price ranges. I would HIGHLY recommend her and will be using her services again for other parts of my home!

  • It has been an absolute pleasure working with “a thing for styling” . It’s been a smooth and speedy process and all my follow up questions were answered same day or next day, which was amazing! I will definitely be using them for another room of mine!

  • I love working with Sara. She is easy to work with and very friendly. I am extremely happy with the way everything turned out. I would highly recommend.

    — R.P.

  • Sara was awesome to work with on my project. Made everything so easy, followed all my requirements perfectly and listened to what my style was. I previously worked with other interior designers in the past who would not listen, were beyond expensive and never used furniture I had. Sara was not only a pleasure to work with, she was easy to talk to/go over designs with, understood what I needed and made suggestions based on exactly what I asked for while making it look stylish! I can’t recommend her enough if you are looking for a reliable, talented and stylish designer!

    — S.C.

  • I have so enjoyed working with Sara on my redesign. She perfectly understood what I was looking for and has designed a space that will make my home beautiful and so much more functional. She's very responsive and goes above and beyond. Highly recommend!

  • I love Sara’s style and attention to detail!! She is very responsive and will continue to work until you are completely happy with your design! She has designed several rooms for me and I loved every design!!
