Nicole Howard – Handmade Illustrations & Upcycled Gifts | Nebo Child

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. Every item in this shop — original art prints, enamel pins, hand-bound journals, magnets, and upcycled treasures — is brought to life with thoughtful, sustainable craftsmanship.


🌿 My Story

For as long as I can remember, I've found comfort in creating. Sketching, writing, crafting, transforming something old into something new — art has always been the place where I feel most myself.

What began as doodles on scrap paper and hand-bound journals made just for fun gradually grew into something more. With the encouragement of friends and family, that little spark turned into the dream you see here today.


💛 What Makes My Work Special

  • Made by one set of hands — mine. No factory, no team. When I do 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. Every illustration is drawn, painted, or created by me.
  • Created with care. Each piece is made 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 and for supporting a small-town Canadian artist with big dreams. 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
