Meet Jes

Potter & Clay came out of my own struggle to add personal touches to my home in the midst of overpriced, uninspired hardware at brick-and-mortar and online stores. With a new baby girl in our lives, my husband and I were eager to spend less time deliberating, and more time enjoying our home with friends and family. After hearing that people around us were experiencing the same struggle, I was inspired to start a hardware store that would fuel our home renovation journey and sincerely, yours.

Try us out!

We’re starting out with a small collection of kitchen and bathroom hardware to stay focused, nimble, and to grow this hardware store around your home renovation needs.
