My sister loves sea turtles. So, spotted this pretty medallion and am going to use it as the base of a pine needle basket. Very nice design!

The ShellsPotteryShop AKA Firefly Design Studio Story

Michelle McCarthy has been creative her whole life. She has experimented with many mediums...until she discovered clay! After taking classes at her local art center, Michelle began a part time career selling her functional and decorative pieces at local art shows. It wasn't until she made a few beads that she found her true love and full time dream career! Art beads are fun, beautiful, inspirational and most of all, addictive!
My business is going through a rebranding process from Firefly Design Studio, to Shells Pottery. My parents called me Shell, and creating beach themed work is my favorite, so it's a perfect name to continue under.
My hope is you enjoy creating with the ceramic beads and pendants I create, as well as wearing my unique jewelry designs. I also create decorative and functional pottery, both with hand building and wheel throwing techniques.
