About Me

About Nebo Child Illustrates & Upcycles

Hi, I’m Nicole Howard — and welcome to Nebo Child Illustrates & Upcycles.

I’m a one-woman small business owner from a quiet little town in Canada, and every item you find here — every illustration, handmade piece, and upcycled treasure — is brought to life with thoughtful, sustainable craftsmanship.

🌿 My Story

For as long as I can remember, I’ve found comfort in creating. Whether it was sketching, writing, crafting, or transforming something old into something new, art has always been the place where I feel most myself.

What began as simple moments of creativity — doodles on scrap paper, hand-bound journals, upcycled ornaments, and small pieces made just for fun — gradually grew into something more. With the encouragement of friends and family, the little spark I carried turned into the dream you see here today.

Nebo Child Illustrates & Upcycles is now my way of bringing light, imagination, and heart into the world.

💛 What This Shop Means to Me

This shop is more than a business — it’s a piece of my story.
It’s the quiet nights, the inspired mornings, and the simple joy of watching an idea come to life.

Every order is handmade or designed by me.
Every illustration reflects a part of who I am.
Every upcycled item carries its own second chance.

✨ What Makes My Work Special

  • Made by one set of hands — mine. No factory, no team — just me doing what I love. When I choose to outsource items like greeting cards or art prints, I intentionally support other small businesses in my local community.

  • Handmade and upcycled with purpose. I love giving forgotten materials new beauty and meaning.

  • Original art from the heart. Everything you see is drawn, painted, or created by me.

  • Created with care. I want each piece to feel as though it was made just for you.

🌟 My Hope

I hope something in this shop speaks to you — whether it makes you smile, inspires you, or simply reminds you that creativity can be found in the quiet, everyday moments.

My wish is that my art brings warmth to your home, joy to your day, or meaning to someone you love.

🤍 Thank You

Thank you for being here.
Thank you for supporting a small-town Canadian artist with big dreams.
And thank you for believing in the magic of handmade things.

Your support allows me to continue doing what I love, and I’m endlessly grateful for every kind message, every order, and every person who takes the time to explore my work.

With all my heart,
Nicole Howard
