I'm not just creative for a job. Creativity literally follows me everywhere.
Abstract Handle Mugs: I got the idea for these guys while falling asleep one night. I thought it would really itch my brain to make a mug with weirdly coiled handles.
Gingerbread House: This was my favorite piece I made for my first craft fair in 2024. I used this insane texture of dark clay and sculpted the house structure. Then, I snuck some white clay scraps from the reclaim bucket and made slip to resemble icing. I took a pipette to the exterior of the house and the rest is history. Oddly enough, none of these sold but I got tons of complements...?
Dot Mug: I got the idea for this while falling asleep one night. I thought that having a bubbly exterior of a mug would really itch my brain.

Lavender Vase: As a senior in high school I spent the majority of my days in the pubs room (I was of course taking three pubs classes). Because of this, I basically got to claim my own desk and decided to do a bit of decorating! I brought in my favorite vase I had made and when I came back the following weekend, I found that my teacher had gotten dried lavender to put in the vase.
Midnight Blue Vase: This clay and glaze combo became my absolute favorite at the studio. P.S. this vase is still for sale...
Crochet Blanket: This blanket took me 1.5 years to make with a year long break in between. The break originally ceased because I decided to finish up the blanket for my boyfriend to decorate his dorm with. However once I started to reach the end I had to tell him "I'm not sure if I'm willing to give this to you". When my dad saw it, he told me he would be furious if I gave it to my boyfriend because of how beautiful it was.
First Craft Fair: I made these vases for my first ever craft fair! Fun Fact: I had four more vases to accompany these guys but on my way home from the studio I was driving behind an idiot who waited until the last second to brake, causing me to slam on my brakes. My precious vases flew out of the backseat and crashed onto the floor, breaking my four favorites :( This is why we drive safely folks.
Cactus: I got the idea for this guy while falling asleep and spent three days working on it. The thing about clay sculptures is you have to create holes in your structure so the clay can dry out. Otherwise, moisture gets trapped inside and creates a mini bomb that will go off in the kiln. I did not put enough holes. It shattered. And took out several other pots. I waited about a week before I finally did the walk of shame with my pieces to the trash can (which was all the way across the other side of the room).

Mug Set: This was the last thing I made before leaving the studio to go off to college. I made these mugs on commission. The spotted black holes were a fan favorite for a lot of my pottery followers, but I vowed to never do them again because of how long they take. Unfortunately I won that fight, but it wasn't so bad this time around!
Craft Fair 2024: I made several ornaments for my first craft fair and they ended up being my best sellers!
My first creation: This was the first pottery piece I ever made when I took my first class in high school.
