Isn’t it funny how making pottery inevitably leads to buying more pottery from other potters with different styles?
Just got this bowl from Spiral House Pottery at the #eugenesaturdaymarket

This little succulent pot turned out so cute! Glazed with Mayco Wintergreen Matte and Lavender Mist.
Now if anyone has tips for getting this fake flower off my cactus safely, I’m all ears 😅

You know it’s spring when my toddlers start bringing me mini bouquets (of weeds, mostly) and I get to break out the tiny vases 🥰

Trying out a new style of bee water cups where I’ll attach a rod after the final firing instead of hand forming a base. Lined up and waiting for the bisque

Fun little make, I’ll add some handles to the next batch 🕯️
Great glaze combo, but note for potters: there was some slight crazing where these glazes overlapped on my clay #potterysky #pottersofbluesky

It’s wild violet season! Made some violet syrup today
My pottery studio is currently home to some baby 🐓 so I’m finding other ways to stay busy

Question for my fellow #potters: I’m testing my first travel cup, and it is a bit warm, bordering on uncomfortable. How do you personally combat this? Add a sleeve? Thicker walls? Some other mods I’m not thinking of?

Worry stones have become such a fun thing to make with my handbuilding clay scraps. Also just good for all the worrying we’re doing right now tbh 💙

Before having my premie twins, I ran a wonderful nonprofit that coordinated USFS volunteers. We had to have volunteers because the USFS was SO UNDERFUNDED. This is absolutely ridiculous.
Here’s a lovely pot I received back when I was also a USFS volunteer. #pottery #OURpubliclands

Kinda joking. But also not joking 😅 I was rewatching Mad Men, my stupid phone started recommending pottery chip and dips for sale, and I was like, I want to make one

Yeah I found these awesome underglaze transfers I can put on the mugs in their greenware state I’ve just been waiting ages for them to get back in stock! It’s a design in clay slip that goes in like a temp tattoo and then you fire it

The sun was barely up, but I couldn’t wait another minute. Wish I was a Brit so I could say I’m “chuffed” with this kiln load! #pottersofbluesky

Throwback to one of the first ceramic pieces I ever made, a chunky cat rattle for a class that I modeled after my cat. He did NOT like it. #potterysky #betterlucknexttime

Got myself a handle extruder this year. Easy to clean and oh so satisfying to use. Now my handles look better than my pots 😅 #worthit #potterysky

Just a reminder that your worst pot may be someone’s favorite pot. ☕️ This over-trimmed too small mug that somehow spins 🤷♀️ my toddlers LOVE it #onepotterstrash #potterysky
