Michele Hastings

I grew up in New Hampshire and fell in love with clay during a high school art class. Fast forward 23 years, and after raising a daughter, I enrolled in the NH Institute of Art and took my love of clay to the next level. It was during this time that I met Jeff Brown, a pottery instructor at the Institute. Eventually we shared a studio in Northwood, NH. In 2010 we made the decision to return to Jeff’s home state of North Carolina, establishing our new home and studio in  the pottery community of Seagrove.

Most of my work is functional, wheel thrown forms. I enjoy carving flowers and leaves through slip covered clay, a process called sgraffito. I fire in a gas kiln, here at our Seagrove studio and participate in wood firings whenever the opportunity arises.

I am a blog writer and that is where I share our daily life experiences as working potters in Seagrove, NC.

These tiny salt pigs are a smaller version of our regular size salt pig. They are just as cute, but take up less space on your counter! We have them available in our gallery in Seagrove, NC as well as in Michèle's Etsy shop.

Beautiful color, the stamping looks exceptional. I always enjoy you and Jeff’s work.

Fabulous 🤩👍

And here is the full view of the porcelain sink with Celadon glaze. The greenness doesn't always work this well. We're very happy with this one.
