Garden Collection
I am a keen gardener and love spending time outside. My garden is both pretty and productive and I grow a lot of my food myself. I just love when things work and double up being pretty. In winter, I often found that my garden looks everything but pretty and I started designing items to change this. I now have a catalogue of garden ceramics that includes Hanging baskets, butterfly feeders, gnomies and much more. I will show you a few of them here. All of them have a story to tell and I dare you to ask ...

Butterfly feederGive bees & butterflies a helping hand. I came up with the idea for these flowers in winter when my garden was bleak and grey. Over the years, I have re-designed them to be pretty and useful too. | Herb LabelsThese little beauties will last. | Canetopper DaisyPretty eye protectors in the veg garden. |
Hanging basketFleur-de-lis design - memories of my grandpa. My hanging baskets come in various sizes and designs. This design is from a door furniture that was at my grandpa's garden shed. I made it into a mould and now I get reminded of very happy times every time I look at it. | GomiesMeet the gnomies. Designed to be fun. | Garden flowerWho says gardens are bleak in winter? |
Gingko Collection
Inspired by the lovely ginkgo tree that is growing in my front garden, I started designing a series of work that reflect this beautiful texture. All my work is hand-build, oven proof, dishwasher and food safe.

Play Collection
3 years ago, I acquired a potters wheel. I played and I learned, I made mistakes and I tried again. An this is how this collection came about. All the pieces are made on the wheel and I decided to use a range of colourful glazes to make them stand out.

Nerikomi Collection
Nerikomi is a Japanese technique for creating pottery in multiple colors of clay. The technique is also called neriage or agateware.
This collection is my take on it, and I am using black and white porcelain. All other colours are mixed in with pigments. I love how unpredictable this process is and can spend hours loosing myself experimenting.
