Kim Myles is a Pro on the Today Show
It is hard to believe that it was less than two years ago when Kim Myles was named the winner of Design Star. She is a testament to how quickly and how completely the title can change a life — not to mention influence millions of TV viewers. Kim has become one of HGTV’s most loved designers.
This was Kim then.
This was Kim recently when she served as a guest judge on HGTV’s $250,000 Challenge. The host of Myles of Style was on hand to challenge and encourage the contestants vying for the quarter-million-dollar prize. She knows a little something about designing a room on a deadline when there are big stakes at hand.
Kim Myles is flanked by HGTV stars Kristan Cunningham and John Gidding.
And this was Kim just last week on the Today Show when she was asked to tackle a timely topic: how to decorate a bedroom on a budget.
Kim's bedroom design got a thumbs up from the Today show's late morning hosts.
Kim’s ideas included: repurposing an old lace tablecloth as a headboard, framing tin ceiling tiles for simple art that shines and making lighting fixtures with twine, glue and a balloon. She described the look as country with clean lines and contemporary with rustic touches. Good stuff.
Alongside Kathie Lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb, Kim was a delight to watch, as confident and charming as ever, rolling with the punches of live TV — a true professional on camera and I’m told, off camera as well. Check out the entire segment here or to see more of Kim’s ideas on video, visit the Myles of Style show page.
Congrats, Kim! How fun to watch your Design Star rise higher and higher. Will the next design star hopefuls be as bright? We’ll soon see! T-minus 26 days and counting!
Kim has shown the doubters that she knows how to design and do it well. She is so talented and creative. Can’t wait to see more of her shows and the ideas she comes up with. Makes me work harder to create unusual items for my own home’s interior.
Kim ,
My husband and I are stationed here in Fort Drum, NY and we bought a home 2007. We have done a lot of home improvements, however , we are having hard time to sell it. Any tips that you can share with us?, or if your time permits, how can we schedule an apointment so that you can come and design our home that way we can be able to sell it.
Where is the winner of Season 3 – her name is Jennifer
She's busy being a mommy!
Jennifer has her own show now: Paint Over.
I was wondering where Jennifer is, too. I thought Kim won in 2007 and Jennifer in 2008. Can you clarify?
I wonder where Jennifer is too. Never heard of her after she won.
Ann
the one and only show I saw showed her pregnant. Haven't seen her since
We are just now seeing her show here in Kansas. She had a baby so hasn't had that much time to take care of baby and do the show.
see above
Hi Sheryl, you are correct. Kim did indeed win in 2007 and Jennifer in 2008. Thanks for pointing this out.
To answer your question re: Jennifer, she has been a busy bee as well.

I feel the same way….WE WANT KIM!!!! She is the best of the Design Star winners.
I agree with Sandra!!! Did I miss something? Where is Myles of Style??????
I love Myles of Style. Kim has such a bubbly personality that makes the show fun to watch and gets you, the viewer, excited about the possibilities when decorating your own space.
Kim Myles is one of my Favorite designers. Her amazing sense of color and creativity is a HUGE inspiration for me. Her show used to be the only thing i watched. My dream is to win Design Star just like her when i get older. I plan on re-doing my room with all her tips in mind, including making original accents by hand. I agree with Sandra I wish Myles of Styles would start up again. Kim has no idea how much talent she has and how much impact she has on all of America’s HGTV viewers. Kim Myles we (and I) love your sense of STYLE!
