Lovebug is a three-generation ceramic studio creating handmade, hand-painted, one-of-a-kind pieces. Each form is crafted by Deb Gritter - Grandma and founder of Heather Lane Pottery, a lifelong ceramic artist whose work reflects years of practice, intuition, and a deep love for ceramic arts - and thoughtfully finished by her daughter Amelea and her daughter, Elida.

Amelea, formerly Managing Director of ArtPrize, brings a background in design, community, and creative direction, with a strong eye for composition and a love of pattern and storytelling through objects. Elida, a high school freshman, brings a fresh and expressive perspective - her one of a kind pieces keep the work feeling joyful and alive.

Together, each piece becomes a collaboration across generations - layered with care, creativity, and a shared language of bright, joyful pattern. United by distinct styles and a deep love of making, we create pieces that bring warmth, beauty, and a sense of delight into everyday life.

We launched Lovebug in 2026 and are just getting started. We’ll be sharing more soon about where to find our work. Check back for details on Elida’s one-of-a-kind pieces, our Candy Stripe line, and our newest designs as they are released.
