Lorrie and Michael Wardell

“This marks our 21^st year living in Saugerties, and we know we have found a community that we want to grow old in. The lifestyle is ideal, and the local residents and business community have always been very supportive of our efforts. We make pots for local shops like Bluestone Coffee Roasters, Krause’s Chocolates and Lox of Bagels. Miss Lucy’s features our butter chips, olive dishes, and small handled bowls. Our ceramics journey started in 1988, and our eclectic backgrounds include science, education, biology, tech writing, and a variety of wonderful ceramic and jewelry workshops. We love making spirit houses and fetish bowls to aid in creating meditation spaces and to reflect our own spiritual journeys. Current passions include creating enameled, textured, and silkscreened jewelry in copper and sterling silver.  We also took the plunge and opened a retail store at 158 Partition Street, next to Stella’s Station. Our jewelry studio is in the shop, and we continue to make pots at our home studio. Please visit our shop during the Saugerties Artist Studio Tour.”
