In middle school, Kylie collected monkey memorabilia and decorated her bedroom with it. She turned her room into a jungle by painting the ceiling bright green and the walls dark brown to mimic a tree house. Strands of plastic ivy draped the walls. The matching monkey bedding took it over the top. Then, she moved onto her friends' houses. During their playdates, she cleaned and rearranged their bedrooms. She loved making spaces beautiful even from a young age.
Later, she watched her carpenter grandfather build homes and even add an addition onto their house. Her grandparents put her in charge of choosing furniture and window treatments. (She had obviously outgrown themed decor by then!) and added to her skills, setting the foundation for interior design. She was hooked!
