The Shop
Limited, small batch releases.
Each piece is carefully and lovingly made by hand. This process is an intuitive, yet meditative and inherently slow practice. Since both intention and artistic flow are important to me and my practice, only a limited number of works are available during shop restocks. Stay in the know by subscribing to my newsletter!

Private Lessons and Tutoring
Bought a wheel and don’t know where to start? Struggling to make consistent work or need help translating ideas from pad to pot? I offer support for current and/or aspiring potters who need guidance in mastering the wheel. Potters must have access to a wheel at their home and/or studio where they have received permission to work. Contact me for more details!
Who am i
Hi, I’m Danielle
I create functional ceramics and teach people how to heal their heart through creating in clay. My practice lives at the intersection of making and teaching where the quiet focus of the wheel and the joy of helping someone find their footing in a new material, heals and renews my spirit with every experience.
Real thoughts. Real experiences. Real people.
“Danielle was very knowledgeable and patient, [She] helped me get my base back and guided us to make some wonderful bowls. It’s great because now we have these bowls that we can use to eat our cereal 😋…”

“Danielle was so kind and patient and very skilled. She helped guide us through the whole process and the ‘what not to dos’. She encouraged mistakes and created a comfortable, creative environment for us. At the end of it all we had two beautiful and functioning bowls! She even helped me add details to the rim for it to be a functioning ramen bowl. It was an amazing time and we can’t wait to retrieve our pottery 💗…”

FAQ’s
When do shop releases happen?
Restocks are small batched and happen a few times a year. Since every piece is made by hand, inventory is often limited. Newsletter subscribers always hear first, so be in the know and join my newsletter! (I promise not to bombard you with spam-mail just pretty pots and fun updates!) .
Do you travel for workshops?
Yes! Mobile workshops come to you — offices, community spaces, schools, birthday parties and other social events. Wherever you are, I can be! Get in touch to schedule your workshop today! For areas outside of Charlotte, NC, travel rates may apply.
Who are private lessons for?
This service is perfect for a current or aspiring potter who is looking to sharpen their skills at the wheel. Whether you have your own home setup or are working out of a community studio, I bring the lessons to you and assist you in learning new and advanced skills. It is recommended that if you are working out of a shared studio that you receive permission from your studio prior to the day of the lesson.
