Bringing the beauty and purpose of the ocean into everyday life

Welcome to NMinnick Designs! This little corner of the internet is where my love for the ocean, marine biology, and art all come together in the most fun way.

I’ve always dreamed of living by the coast—and I know I’m not the only one—so I’ve made it my mission to bring those calm, salty, sun-soaked vibes to you, wherever you are. Think of each piece as a tiny escape to the shore.

My love for the ocean started young while growing up spending countless hours by the waters along the Inner and Outer Banks of North Carolina. I initially pursued a degree and career in Marine Biology, but life charted a slightly different course. I found myself on a different career path while raising my family, but my love for the ocean and marine biology remains. Now immersed in the world of resin art, I have found a way to unite my adoration for marine life with my innate love for creating art. I specialize in home decor and gifts with coastal flair. All products are customized by me in my studio in North Carolina.


Creating allows me to share my passion for the ocean with you, so whether you’re decorating your home, looking for a meaningful gift, or simply want to keep a piece of the shore or treasured family beach memories close, I hope my work brings a little seaside serenity to your world.

Keep Our Seas Plastic Free!

I am also always striving to be eco-conscious in every step of my process, from creation to shipping. As part of that commitment, all my products are mindfully packaged in eco-friendly materials that are plastic-free and recyclable.

I’m so glad you’re here—thanks for supporting handmade art, small business, and a love for the sea.
