I had a great friend take photos of my pottery today! I have been trying to work on my online presence lately! Taking good photos and posting all the time is a lot of work! I can handle Instagram, but doing Facebook, Pinterest and tumblr too while updating my Etsy page... man.. it's a full time job! Here are a few mugs from the last kiln load. I hope to upload more pictures on here soon!

Fun with pottery and plants! I love tiny planters :)

I had a friend come try out the pottery wheel and i asked him to take some pictures of my pottery mug routine!

A typical day for me goes like this:

Early baking shift at the local coffee shop JitteryJoes where I make the breads, cakes, cookies, scones and all other goodies for the shop!

Lunch break at my apartment then off to the pottery studio!

I manage the studio tasks and instruct the daily assistants with the cleaning and organizing jobs. I load the kilns, make the glazes for our cone 6 firings and reclaim clay to keep the studio running smoothly and efficiently.

But the days where I set aside time to make my own pottery are the most enjoyable! I create every mug on the pottery wheel and carve each one by hand. I don’t use any stamps or stencils!
