Sarah worked with us over the phone and sent pictures and suggestions based on our style, needs and pictures we sent her of the living room we wanted to furnish. > > My husband and I went in and met with her and were able to find furniture we both agreed on with Sarah's help. We placed an order and the furniture just arrived. We are so happy with it and it looks amazing! People coming over have commented on how great it looks.

We are delighted with the design choices that she presents and her follow-through is superb. She is not hesitant about sitting down and starting from scratch or adding detail. A trusted go-to for any project. **★★★★★ — Patricia Cauthen, April 2019** > My husband and I worked with Bonnie Sly at Cantoni Furniture. She was ever so patient and helpful, allowing us to even take swatches from California to Utah so that we could make decisions on colors/textures etc. Not all companies allow such a thing and we found it extremely helpful. She is quick to answer emails and went the extra mile to research something when the answer was not readily available. Best of all Bonnie was not pushy and THAT quality, for us definitely helps with the sale. Thank you Bonnie! We will be back again! **★★★★★ — chaissonit, April 2019** > Richard Bustos was the most talented and responsive designer I have ever used . He did two homes for me and both won designer awards . Highly recommend him ! ## Selected projects - [Newport Beach Bayside Abode](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/newport-beach-bayside-abode-pj-vj~5675612) - Location: Newport Beach, CA - Photos: 11 - Description: Designed By: Richard Bustos Photos By: Chad Mellon ---- It is practically unheard of in interior design—that, in a matter of four hours, the majority of furnishings, accessories, lighting and artwork could be selected for an entire 5,000-square-foot home.
