About Us

Magpie and Molly is a husband and wife team creating ceramics and accessories that are handmade, unique, and often one-of-a-kind.

Jen Trautz

Jen started Magpie and Molly as a side hustle in 2009, designing and creating handmade jewelry whenever she had the chance. In 2023 she caught the weaving bug and hasn’t looked back! Her YouTube channel Magpie and Molly is all about weaving, featuring different yarns and how they look on the loom.

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 teaching Art and Ceramics all around the Cincinnati Tri-State.
