“Part of why I created this space is for my own mental health — a place to slow down, create, and reflect. But it’s also here for anyone who might feel alone. Mental health struggles are everywhere, and I truly believe the world would be a better place if we simply listened to each other with kindness instead of rushing, judging, or fighting. If you ever need someone to talk to, know that I’m always willing to listen. Sometimes even a stranger’s ear can make all the difference.”

About Me

Hi, I’m Nicci! ✨ I wear a lot of hats in life — artist, gardener, cook, healthcare student, and most importantly, mom. I’m blessed with two beautiful girls who I love dearly, and they inspire me every single day. Being their mom is the greatest joy in my life, and so much of what I do — whether it’s creating art, tending the garden, or cooking something warm and homemade — is rooted in love for them.

Family is at the heart of everything for me. Along with raising my daughters, I also help take care of my mom, who has a rare bone disease. Supporting her has taught me patience, strength, and compassion, and it deepens my passion for pursuing phlebotomy and healthcare. I know firsthand how important care and kindness are, and I hope to bring that into the work I do for others.

When I’m not focused on family or studies, I pour myself into creativity. I love painting in different styles — from whimsical, cozy illustrations to bright, expressive pieces. Gardening gives me a similar kind of peace: planting, nurturing, and watching things grow. And lately, my newest obsession has been houseplants 🌿. I’m still learning, and I joke that I can kill a plant and then bring it back — but I’m enjoying every step of figuring them out.

Cooking is another passion of mine — there’s something special about turning simple ingredients into comfort and connection.

This little space is a reflection of all the pieces that make me who I am — a mix of creativity, caregiving, and curiosity. It’s where I share my projects, my favorite things, and the inspirations that light up my days. 💜
