Good morning and happy Tuesday! I hope everyone is remembering to limit the amount of bad news they’re consuming and taking care of their mental health! It gets harder and harder, but it’s so important not to give up hope. 🧡 (this is a pep talk for myself as much as for anyone else) #pottery #mug

Yesterday on Instagram I asked people “what’s the biggest lie you regularly tell yourself?” I have two- “I won’t forget” and “I’m only going to watch 15min of reels”. How about you all? • • • • #fuckmug #pottery #ceramics #potterymug #ceramicmug #handmadepottery #handmadeceramics #funnmug #mugs

With all of the horrible shit going on right now, we need joy and laughter more than ever. I’m trying to lean into that idea these days, instead of feeling helpless or guilty that I’m not doing anything about things I have no control over. #potteryofbluesky #pottersofbluesky #pottery #ceramics

This is our third and final cat, Laszlo. He showed up as a stray last year, and after a few weeks of feeding him, he stopped hissing and running away and instead wanted nothing but to be pet. Long story short, he moved in and has become the happiest, most playful and affectionate little guy! #cat

I hope everyone’s having a great (or at least ok) Tuesday! I woke up with a cold, but at least it doesn’t feel like it’s going to be a “knock me on my ass and make me wish for death” kind of a cold. Anyway, here’s a planter I made a while back. :) #pottery #pottersofbluesky #ceramics #plants

I love snakes and have been wanting to do a snake design for ages. I was going for red tailed/Hog island boa vibes, and I don’t hate it, but it kind of looks like an infographic of how many hot dogs might fit inside of a snake. 😂 #handmademug #potterymug #ceramicmug #pottery #ceramics #potters #mug

I had the vague idea for a snail mug rolling around in my head for a couple of years, but just couldn’t visualise what I actually wanted it to look like. This summer the idea finally solidified and I was able to get it onto a mug! It’s very gratifying finally seeing it finished. #potterymug #mug
