MEET THE MAKER:

I’m Nichole, creator and founder of The Other Cat blog and shop. I was born and raised in Los Angeles, but call Washington, D.C., my home. My mother, a woman who bedazzled pretty much everything, encouraged creative expression through arts and crafts. She was the DIY Queen. She taught me how to sew, embroider, and crotchet; and supported all of my creative curiosities. She refused to buy me a Barbie Dream House, but agreed to buy all of the supplies needed to design and build my own from scratch (and I did, complete with an elevator).

At any moment when I’m building, painting, embroidering, crafting, or drawing — I’m at peace. It’s my opportunity for meditation, my stress relief, my happy place — and I’m excited to share it all with you!
