I’m honored to have been nominated for Best of Itasca in the Arts Experiences category! 🎉

Thank you to everyone who has visited The Glaze Garden, taken a class, glazed a piece of pottery, or simply supported this little dream of mine. Your encouragement has helped make this studio what it is today.

If you’ve enjoyed your time creating with me, I’d be incredibly grateful for your vote. While you’re there, take some time to vote for your other Itasca favorites too—there are so many wonderful local businesses, artists, restaurants, and organizations that make this region such a special place to call home.

One of the things I love most about Itasca County is our strong and supportive arts community. It’s an honor to be included among so many talented people and businesses.

Thank you so much for your support—it truly means the world. 💚

☀️🎨 July Classes Are Here! 🎨☀️

Summer is in full swing, and so is a brand-new lineup of pottery classes at The Glaze Garden! Whether you're looking to learn a new technique, spend a creative evening with friends, or simply slow down and make something with your hands, there's a class waiting for you.

This month's schedule features a variety of glazing experiences, each designed to help you create something beautiful while learning a new pottery skill.

Take a look through the July calendar, find a class that speaks to you, and reserve your seat early—many of these classes have limited space and fill quickly.

I can't wait to create with you this month! 💚🌿

🌧️☕ Rainy days and pottery just seem to go together. ☕🌧️

If you're looking for a cozy way to spend this rainy Juneteenth, The Glaze Garden and the Old Central School is open today from 10 AM–6 PM! 🎨💚

Come glaze a piece, browse the shelves, or simply enjoy a creative break from the weather.

And if you've been thinking about trying something new, there's still room in tonight's Sgraffito Mugs: Carve Through Color class! Join us as we carve through layers of color to create beautiful designs on handmade mugs. It's a relaxing, beginner-friendly technique that's equal parts drawing, carving, and pottery.

🕔 Tonight from 5–6 PM
🌿 A few seats are still available

Sometimes the best way to spend a rainy day is making something beautiful. I'll be handling these mugs for our class so feel free to stop by to say hello! ✨

In this reel, I'm creating a simple leaf pattern, but that's the beauty of sgraffito: a few simple lines can turn into something truly beautiful. 🌿

No experience needed—just bring your creativity. 💚
