Grunge Wood

Hi, I'm Kelly,

I was born and raised in Kalamazoo, Michigan, and was surrounded in the arts at home and in school. I remember at the youngest age, always wanting to create art, paint and build with wood. Wood projects were built with my dad in his pole barn and helping him to build and refurbish furniture building projects. My uncle owned an antique shop and furniture refinishing business. He and my dad, stripped and refinished furniture. I was always hanging with them, at the shop, during the summer months. 

 

I am truly inspired by art and anything that is part of it. I desire to take trash to treasure in all I do. As an Interior Designer, it is my way  of "Bringing Art to Everyday". Helping clients to build their space to reflect who they are, what they love, is a joy and comfort of home, for them and for me.
