Hey hey…. Welcome to my website.

It’s been a fabulous journey for me into the world of pottery.  My NANA was a teaching potter who owned The (original) Pottery Nook in western Massachusetts back in the 1950’s.  I own many pieces of her original work that I cherish. When I decided to get into making / creating / designing pottery, it was just natural for me to use the same name :) <3 

My journey started while looking for a fulfilling hobby. The kids moved out and it was just Margot (Woof!) and me. I remembered how much I loved doing pottery and how grounded and relaxed it made me feel.  I took some local classes back in 2016 and boom, it was just like riding a bike… off I went.  In 2019, I opened a wonderful home studio where my pup, Margot, and I spend many, many hours in my peaceful place :). I enjoy making functional pottery as well as decorative pottery using natural elements. Mugs, bowls, dishes as well as wind chimes, bird baths and I’m playing around with garden totems. 

I have a small studio that can accommodate 2 students at a time. It’s a nice relaxed atmosphere so students get personal attention. 

In addition to my home studio, I’m also featured at local craft shows during the year. My son, who happens to be a local glass blower, often joins me. Feel free to check out his work here @ArtOfBrianBigelow

It’s been a pleasure meeting you.  Please reach out to me with any questions or comments.
