Kelly B. Rightsell Designs to be Part of Very Special Extreme Makeover Home Edition Season Finale Airing May 18, 2008

Whimsical Artwork and Decor Bring Joy and Inspiration to Bedrooms of Katrina Children

Greensboro, NC May 13, 2008 -- Kelly B. Rightsell Designs (www.kellyrightsell.com) will be part of a very special two-hour season finale that will complete the show's two year 50 state tour which began with Alaska in September 2006.

Kelly B. Rightsell products made there way down to Louisiana to a very deserving family of seven who had recently faced back to back tragedies. The entire family was living in a small house after first Katrina destroyed their homes and shortly after that, a tornado destroyed their temporary housing.

The Greensboro-company's rugs, stuffed animals and dish sets were all used to create beautiful dream rooms for the family's two little girls. Kelly Rightsell also provided custom painted art work for the two children that became key designs elements in each of their bedrooms. The show will air on the ABC television network on May 18th.

"We were honored to be part of such a special project," said Kelly Rightsell, founder and owner of Kelly B. Rightsell Designs. "In creating my product line I'm inspired daily by the fact that I can bring a little joy into the lives of children. It's truly amazing to have what inspires me and my creations come to fruition in front of millions of viewers. It's incredibly rewarding to be able to touch the lives of this family and put smiles on the faces of these two deserving little girls."

*High-resolution images of the children's room and additional details regarding the show and the featured family will be made available to media after the show airs on May 18.
