Their Story

FiMakes is the heart and vision of Fiona, a talented ceramic artist based in Mid Ulster. Her love for pottery began over twenty years ago when she joined a night class and discovered the joy of shaping clay on the wheel. What started as a hobby soon became a lifelong passion.

After many years working in catering, Fiona brought her creativity full circle by founding FiMakes: a studio where she designs, creates, and teaches others to find the same joy she did. Her home studio is a peaceful space filled with texture, warmth, and stories told through clay. Each piece she makes carries her distinctive style: simple, functional, and deeply human.

 

 

Why We Love FiMakes

Fiona’s work beautifully captures the spirit of local craftsmanship. Every bowl, mug, or vase is handmade, each one slightly different, reminding us that imperfection can be beautiful. She doesn’t just make ceramics, she welcomes people into the creative process, offering small pottery sessions where anyone can experience the satisfaction of making something with their own hands.

Her dedication to quality, patience, and community shines through in every detail. FiMakes is more than a studio:  it’s a place where creativity and connection come together naturally.
