Organic & Unique Pottery

The pottery Melodie creates is a reflection of nature’s raw beauty—organic, unique, and deeply personal. Each piece is shaped by hand, embracing natural imperfections that make it one of a kind. Whether it’s the earthy textures, curvy forms, or neutral colors chosen to emphasize light and shadow, her work carries an authenticity that mass-produced ceramics simply can’t replicate. Inspired by the elements and details of the world around her, her distinct perspective and skill with clay results in vessels that feel both ancient and modern.

Her work isn’t just about utility; it’s about storytelling—capturing the essence of the earth and transforming it into something lovely and timeless.

Hi there, I’m Melodie.

I currently work full time teaching and making pottery in my Nashville home studio. I continue to exhibit and sell my ceramic work in shows, galleries, and boutiques, and am grateful to God for every opportunity I am given to share the joy of clay with others.

In my work, I’m most interested in honoring quiet moments, images or textures that evoke a memory or connection. I want each and every piece of pottery I make to be its own small celebration. I come from a long line of makers, so beautiful, meaningful handmade objects are important to me. I want the objects I surround myself with to be about connection, to have a story and meaning, to celebrate the tiny details of life. That’s what I strive to create.
