My favorite stage of the process. When the clay is in its drying stages, it’s in a state of unknown and still in the beginning, just like January. You’re not sure what’s a head for the year, but you’ve planned your best and hope for the best. For clay, you don’t know if it will make it through the first firing, there is no glaze yet, so the choices are endless. It may turn out to be your favorite thing you’ve made, or not turn out to be what you planned in the process and be a learning lesson.

January has been a time for me to take a break from teaching public classes and make as much as I can. New items, new colors, all in prep for markets and to have items in more physical locations this year, while still teaching classes! Fingers crossed this year and these items pictured go as planned🤪

Anyone who knows me, knows I’m an advocate of self care and prioritizing relaxing for yourself! Pottery is one way for me to quiet my mind and relax, but some of my favorite treats for myself are massages and facials, another space where my mind can quiet and peace sets in, so it feels very fitting to have my items in a tranquil and relaxing space (also who else has been dying to try IV therapy after the holidays!!?)

One of my 2024 goals was to have my items in a physical place!! I was so excited when Erica was at one of my classes for her kiddos and offered me a shelf. On the last day of 2024 I brought my things in, so sometimes it really does take the whole entire year to meet a goal🤪🥰

I’m excited to see what 2025 will have to offer and to share all the new exciting classes and events coming!! Public classes will resume Feb 1st so keep your eyes peeled🥂👀
