About Us

We are proud to be collaborating with:

   


Magpie and Molly is a husband and wife team creating small batch ceramics, jewelry and knitwear that are handmade, unique, and often one of a kind.

 

JEN ACKERSON TRAUTZ

Jen started Magpie and Molly as a side hustle in 2009, designing and creating handmade jewelry whenever she had the chance. When she isn’t making jewelry or hanging out with her family, you can usually find her making something out of yarn, fabric, or fiber!

 

JASON TRAUTZ

As the "other half" of Magpie and Molly, Jason can usually be found with his hands in the mud. His ceramics are wheel thrown, glazed, and fired right here in our home studio. The rest of the time you'll find him hanging out with his family or teaching at Queen City Clay in Cincinnati, Ohio.
