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!

    — T.H.

  • 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.

    — A.W.

  • 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!

    — R.M.

  • Working with Sara was great. She was/is very responsive and attentive. Currently working on a second project with her and I am sure I will work with her again in the future. Definitely 5 stars

  • Exceptional interior design services! I had the pleasure of working with Sara for my recent home interior designing project, and I couldn’t be more happier! She is very talented and always professional, responsive, and attentive to my needs throughout the project. She made the process seamless and enjoyable. Already working with her again for another room project! I would highly recommend Sara to anyone in need of interior design services.

    — M.H.

  • 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!

    — D.D.

  • 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!

    — L.M.

  • 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!!

    — S.L.

  • Sara was so incredibly patient and helpful. As someone who has a vision but can’t quite put it together, Sara really helped me to do just that. And it really came together. I would use her again for every space I have. No matter how big or small.

    — B.W.

  • I live in Calgary, Canada, and recently had the pleasure of working with Sara on a redesign of my home. From the beginning, she brought a perfect mix of creativity and care. What really stood out was how she managed to introduce fresh, inspiring design ideas while still respecting the feeling and familiarity of my space. Even with the beautiful touches, I never felt like I was losing my sense of belonging. Sarah listened to what I wanted and delivered a space that reflects both function and personality. Living in Calgary comes with its own design considerations—from seasonal light to practical materials—and she handled all of it with thoughtful expertise.

    I highly recommend Sara for her creative vision and professionalism.

    —R.D.

  • I was honestly surprised by how smooth the whole virtual interior design process was with A Thing for Styling. I didn’t expect to be able to redesign my living room without anyone actually coming over, but they completely got my style. The level of detail and creativity they brought to the project was really impressive!

  • I had a vision for my playroom but needed help bringing it to life…to say she nailed it would be an understatement. The renderings she produced were even better than what I had in mind, and working with her was a pleasure.

  • Sara has been amazing! We ordered a lot of her interior design services and we have been very happy our house is almost done and we cannot wait to implement her ideas! Thank you Sara.

    —Gary

  • Sara is wonderful to work with and responds quickly to emails. I needed some drawings done for a custom cabinetry piece sourced from an inspiration photo. I wanted to ensure it would work within my small space. She went above and beyond with mimicking the inspiration photo. I could not be more pleased. Although I knew exactly what I wanted, I appreciated the initial questionnaire to understand a person’s style or vibe for a space. I would definitely use her again!

    —Hilary

  • We were really hesitant to work with a designer online with this being our first time. Sara was awesome to work with. She understood our goal and created the master bedroom of our dreams! She was very responsive and made the process simple for us: We plan on working with her on our other rooms too!

    —k. Adams

  • Sara was wonderful to work with. She created a beautiful design that reflects our style and needs. She is a great communicator and had fabulous ideas and suggestions. I will definably be using her again in the future and won't hesitate to recommend her to my family and friends. I am an extremely happy customer.
