Grounding Beads
Feel the weight of the Earth in these hand-rolled beads in your daily meditation and mindfulness practice. Created with love from natural clay and organic hemp.
Connection to Earth
Rooted in the cycles of nature—designed to hold, honor, and return what we love to the earth. Whether cradling ashes, nurturing a living plant, or carrying the scraps of a meal back into the soil, each piece reflects the balance of holding on and letting go. These objects are reminders that regeneration and remembrance walk hand in hand.
Connection to Community
To hold a handmade vessel is to touch a story. Every piece carries the quiet imprint of my hands—subtle traces of individuality within a shared human experience. These pieces are created to be part of our homes and ceremonies, bridging the space between memory, celebration, and connection with others.
Connection to Self
Ritual can be simple: lighting a candle, tending a plant, placing a cherished vessel in your home. My work invites you to create space for reflection and release, to honor what has been and embrace what is. These pieces are not only memorials but companions for daily life—objects to center you in your own story.
About Annie
Clay allows me to explore how we honor life, memory and renewal. Through the creation of cremation urns, memorial pieces, planters & compost containers, I’ve found a place to celebrate life, to hold what we cannot keep, and to remind us of the beauty in letting go.
Clay is endlessly humbling - sometimes generous, sometimes unyielding, and this dialogue fuels my need to keep learning and creating. I see visions of my next work in the layers of moss and decaying leaves that blanket the forest floor and where the sand ripples beneath the endless push and pull of the moon. I taste it in the fresh tomatoes grown in my backyard, fed by the fertile compost collected one scrap at time in my kitchen. I feel my work when I breathe in deep, and recognize the things I am grateful for.
I am a graduate of Massachusetts College of Art and Design, a teacher at Maine Clay Collaborative, and I make my work in Midcoast Maine. CV available upon request.
“To live in this world you must be able
to do three things: to love what is mortal; to hold it against your bones knowing
your own life depends on it; and, when the time comes to let it go, to let it go.”
