“Sabrina Phillips of Designing Women is simply sensational. She is smart, always has super great ideas, and really knows how to blend colors; always economical and makes the process easy as she handles all the details and contracting. She is a terrific stager, a true window covering expert and overall is simply a joy to work with. Contracting with her has been one of my best decisions ever. She suggested I spend $15,000 to update my home before selling it. We listed it for $60,000 more than we would’ve and actually sold it for $55,000 OVER asking price within 7 days!! I’m making an additional $115,000 on my home! I wish I knew her years ago.”

“I hired Sabrina to remodel my home in Corona Del Mar, CA and am so glad to have FINALLY found an Interior Designer who knows what she’s doing AND listens to her client’s needs and wants. She designed, contracted, and managed our entire project (over 3,000sf) which left us free to do what we needed and wanted! She was on-time, detail oriented, honest, and very friendly–VERY easy to work with! I’d had other experiences that did not go well at all so I was very leery about hiring another designer. I’m so glad she was referred to me by 3 different realtors! Thank you for turning our outdated home into a modern piece of art!


–Janice B., Corona Del Mar, CA 

“We worked with Sabrina and Wow, what a great decision we made! She is an incredibly talented, amazing designer! Her taste and expertise helped us design our newly acquired home and we couldn’t be happier! She helped us pick everything out and made it a stress-free experience for us. Every presentation she showed us was impeccable and thoroughly thought out. She made sure to take the time to find out what we liked and then helped our vision become reality. She kept all lines of communication open from emailing to phone calls to text messages. Best decision we have ever made was hiring her. From the blinds, the shutters, the art on the walls, the rugs on the floor, the accessories, you name it–she helped our house become a home. Book her already! You will have no regrets!”


–Jamie P., Capistrano Beach, CA

“I put my house up for sale and literally got zero bites for 4 months! Resistant to the idea of staging and painting my red walls, but in desperation, I hired Sabrina to stage it. It was AMAZING! She used all my own things but somehow the results she produced made the house look inviting, homey and like a designer showplace! (We thought about staying!) And…it sold in 2 weeks! Brilliant and fun to work with. I’d do it again in a heartbeat.”


–Karen S., Irvine, CA

“Sabrina is a very talented stager! Best money ever spent on this service! She had my client’s home in shape in no time and it sold in UNDER 2 weeks! I’ve since used her on other homes and she’s done it time and after time. Her skills and knowledge of the real estate industry coupled with her results-driven system, Works!!”


–Stephanie V. Realtor

“Sabrina rocks! She is very knowledgeable about windows, blinds, shutters and any other type of window covering you want. She also, does an awesome job of designing your space to go along with your new window coverings. She is easy to get along with and she makes her clients her top priority.”

“Sabrina at The Blind Guys & Designing Women was very helpful and creative in designing my new home. Everything was completed professionally and in a timely manner for me to move in. Thank you again!”


–Tom Kadar, Realtor/Sotheby’s, Laguna Beach, CA

“Fun & Knowledgeable! A job Well Done! I did not get the “decorator gene” and have been living in my place for several months with no window coverings, having anxiety just thinking about having to choose drapes, curtain rods, sashes, etc. for my windows. Not to mention measuring and actually installing them myself. Sabrina came over and made short order of my dilemma and I had beautiful window coverings in no time that really finished off my living room and bedroom! She made it fun, painless and took all the guesswork out if the process for me. Thank you so much!”


–Kelly Chaplin, Realtor/Realty One Group, Laguna Niguel, CA

“Sabrina Phillips helped me find the current products from Hunter Douglas and offers other manufacturers that saved me money.  I found out she’s had her own firm doing this since 1991 and she really knows her window coverings. She’s excellent with fabrics and custom draperies and bedspreads as well and really is awesome.

As an ASID Interior Designer, she’s excellent with remodeling. .. one room or a whole house, she designs your perfect space and manages your entire project saving you time, stress, and money!  I have really enjoyed working with her. She truly is a professional in all areas of home design.”


–Michael B., Laguna Niguel

“Our home remodel was designed and managed by Sabrina Phillips-Garrison. She has an incredible eye and came up with terrific ideas that really enhanced our living experience such as adding larger doors and windows to allow more light into our home. She was always punctual and detail oriented AND kept in constant communication with us as to the progress of our project! We could go to work and go on vacation, feeling safe to leave her our house keys while she and the contractor worked on what became a piece of art! We are truly delighted with the finished product!”


–Melody M., Newport Coast, CA

“I’ve hired many so-called stagers in the past 15 years but no one has an eye for home staging like Sabrina Phillips! She’s done 6 homes for me thus far. She’s fast, concise, pays attention to details and gets my clients’ FAST results…which means faster turn around and, on several homes, a higher asking price due to the change in perceived value! I’m impressed and I WILL be calling you again Sabrina for my next home!”


–Brad B., Developer/Realtor, Lake Mission Viejo, CA

“Just love working with Sabrina for all my design needs. They know interior design so well as they listen to what I like and implement in what is new and stylish. The Blind Guys & Designing Women by far the best design for getting the getting the right shutter and we love them as it’s the only window coverings that increase the value of the home. I never knew the difference between custom drapes over the store bought off the shelf till the ones that were designed just for my home arrived and where installed and wow that just made the room. Thank you guys again for all the help.”


–James T, Huntington Beach, CA

I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a professional interior designer.”

–Diana Atkins, Realtor at Star Estates, Mission Viejo, CA

–Amanda E., Aliso Viejo, CA

“My wife and I hired Sabrina to help us re-decorate and re-arrange our home. She was very quick to understand our needs. She almost immediately identified the little changes we could make in the flow of the furniture, the color scheme of the house, and the little things we could add to improve things, which ultimately made a huge impact in the look and feel of our home (and we LOVE it now). Sabrina can make your home look like a model home at a very reasonable cost, I would highly recommend her. Thank you Sabrina!”

–Karen B., Realtor, Rancho Santa Margarita, CA

“I had Sabrina out to measure for a new shade in my office . She was prompt, informative, and had an excellent selection of products to choose from. Her customer service is excellent. I was so happy with the shade that when I needed shutters for a bedroom, I called her ! She knows her stuff, is competitively priced and has great follow up! 5 stars for Sabrina and The Blind Guys!”


–Susan P., Rancho Santa Margarita, CA

“I had Sabrina provide window coverings for essentially my entire upstairs. She was knowledgeable, friendly and patient with all the questions I had. She offered me many options, and I ultimate elected to go with shutters. They look great! I couldn’t be happier with the product and attention I received. Thank you Sabrina and Designing Women!”


–Diane P., Mission Viejo, CA

“If you’re looking for a great designer than I would highly recommend Sabrina. She is very down to earth, easy to talk to and she really listens to what your likes and dislikes are when it comes to decorating. Unlike some designers who simply listen to what you tell them you like but then proceed pushing their own agenda in decorating. Sabrina helped me with blinds and drapes as well as redoing and updating many rooms in my home. I like that Sabrina is cost conscious and doesn’t always push the most expensive designer ideas and she helps me to stay within budget but ensures I will end up with a beautiful room.”


–Nancy L., Coto de Caza, CA

“I had Sabrina at my home to help me with staging, including paint color. She picked a great color in 5 minutes. I followed all her recommendations and my home sold in a matter of hours! She really has a talent!”


–Tracy E., Irvine, CA
