Winter Reptiles

We have a thin layer of snow -enough to keep the reptiles under ground..so I'm making things out of clay, like these 2 platters, that might remind you of snakes...or sea shells...
What do they remind you of?

Have a Heart

 Did you notice that the word HEART has the word "hear" in it....suggesting perhaps there is             something worth listening too! The word HEART also contains the word "art" in it....imagine unlimited creativity...Anything is possible.

A cold day-perfect for hot tea!

The wind was whistling through the branches, snow blowing everywhere and according to my daughter, Naomi, I just can't make the cups too big!! 
So I'm making BIG cups to enjoy warm drinks in. Keep warm.www.JenniferRanz.com

New Art & Old Lace

 I was recently gifted (Thank you Nadya) a trash bag full of lace.  Sweet gems and treasures for the likes of me!!! I like to press the patterns into wet clay and make precious things with the beautiful textures.  With Valentine's Day just around the corner- I've been making clay hearts into plates, bowls, earrings and pendants (like the one below). You can find my clay hearts at Frog Hollow in Burlington, Artisans Hand in Montpelier, The Northeast Kingdom Art Guild in St. J,  Haymaker Press in Morrisville and at my Greensboro Barn.
Call 802-533-9281 to see if I'm home or stop by.

Hearts, hearts and more hearts!

I've been busy lately making hearts, heart earrings, heart pendants, heart rattles, heart plates and heart bowls.... If you're looking for a special gift for a sweet heart- consider one of these clay hearts.  Contact me via email: ranzbarn@yahoo.com if you're interested in one because they are hot out of the kiln and I haven't had time to put many of them on the website yet: www.jenniferranz.com
