Hello! I’m Jessica
Our Story
Hello and welcome! Nooks In Bloom is a little dream that began in 2019 out of a passion for home decorating and gardening. I had a tight budget with BIG ideas for our dream home.
In 2018 my husband Ronny and I embarked on designing and self-building our home in Florida. We had never built a house before, nor had I ever designed an entire home from start to finish. There were many hurdles and moments of despair. But it was also one of the most rewarding experiences of our lives. Ronny was the engineer behind the scenes and my partner in crime. He grew up in Germany and I in Costa Rica—both in cultures where you learned to mend things rather than dispose them when they broke. DIY’ing our way through the process was an extension of our upbringing.
In 2023 we moved to Atlanta and have settled into a vibrant community that we love. After one year in our first home, we moved again, finding a home that was better suited for us and which we are slowly renovating. Although my design style has several constants, I’m leaning into new looks in our current home we’ve named Hummingbird. I find that each home will guide you with as to what design will feel right.
I’m a mom of 4 which has dealt with some health challenges that I’ve been gratefully able to overcome after discovering Medical Medium and changing our lifestyle. I thank God every day for always carrying me forward.
Helping others learn ways to enhance their homes and lives through decor is something that fuels me everyday. I thank each of you for supporting this blog. Your comments, your emails and simply taking time out of your day to read a post means the world to me! I look forward to sharing this creative journey with you.
Join Jessica on a new adventure renovating her Atlanta home. There will be facelifts and demo’s and inspiration from cottage, old world, and European styles.

So happy I found your blog and videos! I’m renovating an old house that I’m turning into an airbnb in South Tampa. I look forward to learning new techniques from you. I found you by typing in ideas for a cinderblock wall and so glad I did! Now I’m not going to drywall over my wall but do your technique to it instead!! I’ll let ya know how it turns out.
Where in Florida are you btw?
Sincerely,
Kimberley
Hi Kimberly! Yay, so glad you reached out. I am just North of Wesley Chapel, so not too far. That is exciting to hear about your future Airbnb. What a fun adventure. The cinderblock wall project was fun and I am still loving that wall. Keep me posted on your progress!
