Kylie Bodiya always dreamed of being an interior designerβshe even sketched castles on grid paper as a kid. After 14 years in the field, burnout hit hard, especially after Covid, and the final straw came when an angry client called herβwhile she was in line for the Winnie the Pooh ride at Disneyβdemanding the exact height of a wall sconce. That moment made it clear: it was time for something new. Just before that trip, Kylie had wished for a t-shirt featuring the winking hippo from Itβs a Small World, so she designed one herself.
That creative spark led her to explore drawing, painting, and, eventually, designing more shirts. With a little encouragement from her husband and a whole lot of passion, The Quirky Mouse was born. Now, she gets to create joyful, nostalgic designs for people who love Disney magic as much as she doesβsomething sheβs endlessly grateful for, thanks to the incredible support of her family and the amazing customers who bring pixie dust to her journey every day! β¨
