To all the lovers and haters.
For every asshole that felt the need to leave mean comments this week saying:
1. I’m a selfish bad mother.
2. My art sucks.
3. I’m rich, spoiled and pretentious.
4. I dont know how to dress.
5. THEY HATE ME.
WELL, aside from wishing them a big giant EF YOU – not for not liking me, or not agreeing with me, but for being piggy assholes about it, I just want to say, that it’s the nice comments and posts that make up for it all.
Like this one, by this blogger.
Read it HERE. Lola-Thank you, your post made my day!
Ya see, sometimes I, like every other blogger wonder, why am I doing this. Who even gives a shit. I’ll do a post and get like 4 comments. I know its summer and all… but how am I supposed to know if you guys like what I’m doing if no one even facebook likes the damned post and then I get some A-hole telling me I suck?
Right.
Then I think, why do I expose myself like this? Talk about my life, post my house, post my art, give you all my ideas, tell you all my shopping and DIY secrets? WHY? Why dont I just post pretty pictures and call it a day? So many bloggers don’t show anything about themselves or their work. Now I know why. Hate mail. I wish there was a way to ban people who HATE me from reading my blog.
Anyway, I got a great mention in this online magazine!
As MFAMB said, its really cute! Its very blogger centric and I liked it because it had a distinct point of view, a lot of take away information and it wasnt pretending to be somethings its not, ie its very clearly an online magazine written by bloggers.
It was very enjoyable, check it out! And hop over to page 72 to see my page! HERE.

Aw, and I thought I was having a rough day…I came to read about your day and I’m sorry it wasn’t so great, but on a plus note…I never knew about your Blog until I read about it on Lola Inspired yesterday, and when I checked it out I totally learned how to fish tail braid my hair- nope, not from the you tube video of the girl actually braiding her hair, or from another blog that I read, but from your bracelet making skills!! So YEAH YOU for being so awesome and having great skills to blog about and for teaching me something new! And yeah me for finding your Blog and finally learning how to style my hair in this hot humid weather! Hope you are having a better night! Ps- I read several blogs, and love adding yours to it, but I’ve never commented until now…hope all these comments make you smile and that you feel that it is worth it to put yourself out there! Pss- How cool is it that you had your art displayed at Intermix?! Cheers!
Awesome. So glad! Fishtail braids are awesome, and so easy once u see it done. And yes, Im smiling at the screen right now!
Nicole,
You’re amazing and you know it. Love your style, love your attitude, loving you.
Keep doing it -
I did not have time to read all of the comments so I might be beating a dead horse and repeating what everyone else has already said, butttttttt does anyone realize the amazing this about blogs is…if you don’t like it, you don’t have to read it. I think the haters are super jelly. I have 2 of your prints and am obsessed. It takes a lot of GUTS to put everything out there. Keep it coming!
What separates those who are successful and the mere dreamers are the ones who plug away regardless of the criticism they face or the free time they compromise in pursuit of their vision. People become jealous of those who are achieving their goals because they only see the “endgame”, not the blood-sweat-and-tears part; or they wish they did the same sooner.
So keep on “keeping on”; when I see your posts, it inspires me to keep my own work moving along
And some day we WILL do those studio visits 
Nicole Cohen your blog is at the TOP of my list! Always. Don’t you dare think nobody’s there. I read it every day and enjoy every single post. So there.
I’m a recent follower and I love your blog! I can’t imagine why anyone would want to leave a mean comment on a blog. If you don’t like it, don’t read it!
Your blog is absolutely one of my most favorites and I subscribe to about 50 others. You have the BEST style, in your home and in fashion. I LOVE YOUR APARTMENT, ART AND FASHION ACCESSORIES. Seriously, love. It’s funny because in my home decor and with my own art I have received both praise and criticism. But when someone with style complements my designs it makes me so happy. And when I receive critique or an underwhelmed reaction to a new piece I always consider that person’s own style, if they have no style I am happy to receive the criticism! Unfortunately in blogging you can’t see how tacky the haters probably are! Please know that for every hater there are tons of lovers who just don’t comment, keep the inspiration coming!
i havent been checking/commenting on your blog all summer bc i had a baby but i usually read your blog every single day, sometimes i even checked it twice to see if you posted more! i just caught up on so many of your posts and screw the haters!! i got so many ideas from you for my house! your DIY’s inspired me to sew my own pillows, copies of kelly wreastler and they came out amazing, ill email you a pic!! i even tried making my own abstract paintings ala sketch inspired, which came out terrible bc im too organized in my mind to even defer from a straight line! i bought funky string and started making friendship bracelets with my 7 year old sister and we even did tie die tanks!! your blog is amazing, you give me new ideas every single day and you are really talanted!! you inspire me all the time!! i even think i saw you in deal two weeks ago but i was too chicken to say hi im obsessed with you !! haha
I need pictures of all your projects! Thats so awesome. NEXT TIME SAY HI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love your site – It’s one of the few I always check!
Just keep on rockin! It’s easy to be cruel when no one can see your face. Love your style and your spirit and the fact that you’re unlike all the sappy blogs out there!!
