Known for her delightfully refined hand-thrown ceramics and stunning floral arrangements, Frances Palmer is a true source of aesthetic inspiration. From her home studio in Weston, CT, Frances crafts porcelain and earthenware pieces that are both functional and artful; she also expresses her creativity in her gorgeous home gardens.

Here she gives us a peek into her artful life, full of morning knitting, bud vase adorned dinner parties, and "embracing the random."
