If you’re anything like me, you love creating — but sometimes the hardest part is simply deciding what to make.
You sit down at your craft table with good intentions…and suddenly your mind goes blank.
That’s exactly why I created Nicolio Mini Makes.
Nicolio Mini Makes is a monthly creative challenge designed to gently guide your creativity, spark ideas, and help you build a consistent creative habit — without pressure, perfection, or overwhelm.
What Are Nicolio Mini Makes?
Nicolio Mini Makes is all about small projects with big heart.
Each month, I share simple prompts — usually based on:
🎨 Colors
❄️ Seasonal themes
✂️ Everyday objects
💛 Creative inspiration
You can interpret the prompts however you’d like. There are no rules and no expectations.
Your “mini make” might be:
A handmade card
A journal page
A bookmark
A planner clip
A tiny paper project
Or something completely your own
If it’s small, creative, and made with intention — it counts.
Why Mini?
Because small feels doable.
Mini projects:
Lower the pressure to be “perfect”
Fit into busy schedules
Help you actually finish something
Build creative confidence over time
Creativity doesn’t have to be big to be meaningful.
How the Challenge Works
Each month is broken into simple prompts. For January, we’re leaning into cozy, winter-inspired ideas — like colors that feel calm and seasonal objects that spark creativity.
You don’t have to participate every day. You don’t have to post every project. You d
on’t have to keep up perfectly. This is about showing up when you can and enjoying the process.
How to Join the Nicolio Mini Makes Community
This challenge is better together 💛
To play along:
Create something inspired by the prompt
Share it on social media
Tag @NicolioWithLove
Tag other makers and cheer each other on
The goal is to build a supportive, encouraging creative space where we share ideas, celebrate progress, and remind each other that creativity doesn’t have to be complicated.
You’re Always Welcome
Whether you’re a seasoned maker or just getting started…Whether your project feels “finished” or a little messy…Whether you join once or all month long…
You belong here.
Nicolio Mini Makes is an invitation to create, connect, and find joy in making — one small project at a time.
I can’t wait to see what you create 💛Happy Mini Making!
