Mystery Boxes go live on my site Saturday, March 1, at noon EST! Every time I think I’ve got it figured out, ceramics finds a new way to go wrong. I collect all my not-quite-perfect pieces and offer them to you at a steep discount in Mystery Boxes. More details to come

I’m giving a mug away to a member of my email list every month this year, and this is February’s mug. To be eligible, sign up for my email list on my website (link in bio). As a new subscriber, you’ll also get 15% off your first order. Complete rules/details are on the email list sign up page

In glaze testing I always start with tiny batches of glaze on test tiles so I don’t waste material. Then when I think I’m close to what I want, I make a bigger batch to see what it looks like on a mug or cup. It almost always looks a little different on a mug than it does on the test tile. Thoughts?

On the 21st of every month this year I will select a random member of my newsletter email list and send them a mug for free. This is February’s mug! All you have to do to be eligible is be subscribed to my email list. Sign up on my website. Full rules are on the sign up page.

Last night in my dream I listened to Prince perform a cover of Bridge Over Troubled Water. Once I woke up I had to google it to make sure it wasn’t real 🙂

I love pulling handles. I know some people don’t enjoy it, but I find creating a beautiful arc so satisfying

Hello Bluesky! I just signed up and trying to figure out how this works…
