We're Shannon & Ashley — two Jersey girls who fell in love with the magic of making things by hand, and decided the DMV deserved a little more of it.
We're happy you're here. Mud & Meadows is a women-owned small business pop-up shop rooted in a love of handmade craft, good company, and the kind of evenings you don't want to end.
Born in New Jersey and now bringing our passion to the DMV, we create pop-up pottery and craft experiences at local breweries, wineries, and garden centers across the region — because we believe the best art happens when you're relaxed, surrounded by beautiful things, and maybe holding a glass of wine.
Every Mud & Meadows event is a little world of its own. Whether you're shaping clay on a wheel, painting a ceramic tumbler, or arranging a seasonal floral arrangement — we guide you every step of the way with warmth, patience, and zero pressure.
No experience needed. No judgment. Just your hands, some good materials, and the satisfaction of making something beautiful that's entirely yours to take home.
Two friends, one dream, a whole lot of clay.

Shannon is the creative heart of the duo — she studied fine arts at Rowan University and has been making things with her hands ever since. She'll be the one at the event who makes everything look effortlessly gorgeous. Outside of Mud & Meadows you'll find her on a ski slope or somewhere deep in the woods on a hike, probably with a great playlist going.

Ashley is the one who makes sure everything actually comes together — and somehow makes it look easy. She's got a background in events and a seriously contagious love for bringing people together over something beautiful. When she's not planning the next pop-up, she's nose-deep in a book or off exploring somewhere new.
