We enjoy custom projects and work closely with home-owners and designers to create something beautiful that suits both style and budget. Contact us at romyandclare@gmail.com
Romy and Clare Creative Clay began in 1995, but a lifelong friendship led us to this creative union. Our parents grew up together as friends and were in each others weddings. So, we've been friends from the beginning.
After college (Romy graduated from Herron School of Art and Clare graduated from DePauw University with a BA in Studio Art), we played, we traveled, and we both eventually made it back to our hometown of Jasper, IN.
That's when we started putting bright paint to clay and gave the pieces to family and friends as gifts. The rest, so they say, is history. We sold at local shops and art fairs, but mainly...friends told friends and Romy and Clare Creative Clay was born.
And now more than ten years later, here we are, a little older, with new responsibilities, like children, trying to juggle the challenges of modern day life as working mothers. Amidst the juggle we brought in Carolyn to help us with photography and keeping our shop up-to-date. Carolyn and Clare go way back to the days of Clare’s sister’s grade school sleepovers. You may bump into her as she helps keep our etsy shop humming along.
Outside of a little frame-building and woodworking done by a local retired banker, we design, paint, bead, and/or sew all of our pieces in our studio...a hundred year old grainery deep in the corn and soybean fields of southern Indiana.
With the spirit of fun and friendship, we hope that you enjoy our work as much as we enjoy creating each piece.
