Custom Blend Parisian influence and vintage style mix in designer Sarah Parsley’s Conway kitchen and bath
Sarah Parsley seems to have a natural knack for design and homebuilding. “My dad was a builder for most of my life, so I think it’s innately in my blood,” she laughs. After studying apparel design at the University of Arkansas, Sarah worked for local lighting manufacturer Mastercraft Lamps for a number of years. Here, while designing vignettes for marketing purposes, her passion for interiors grew, as did her confidence in her abilities. This prompted her to launch Sarah M. Parsley Design five years ago. “I love color, and I like to mix pattern; I think that’s something that makes me different in our industry,” she says. “I’m also drawn to a number of design styles.” In 2018, she had the opportunity to put her talent to work for her own family when she and her husband, Aaron, decided to build a home for themselves and their two young children, Monroe and AidenGrace, in Sarah’s native Conway.
