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

Cheers to 2012

 

Where did January go? As you can see we have snow! Not much-but enough to enjoy x-c skiing in my back yard. I have a yummy wood fire going at home all the time and it's very tempting to just sit in the arm chair and watch the flames and feel the warmth, dream of being down under and watch the Australian Open, which is finally over. so I've been in the basement glazing up a storm and cooking up new things....soon to be posted!!!

Winter is here!

 Luckily I got all my carrots out of the ground and it was a glorious harvest!
A beautiful new layer of snow is covering my back yard.  I am feeding my wood stove and enjoying the warmth and beauty surrounding me here at the Greensboro Barn.  If you want to shop locally and are looking for unique, handmade holiday gifts I have lots of different things!!!so stop by, or check my website:www.JenniferRanz.com
