Announcement
My pottery is handmade one at a time by me either on a potter's wheel or with slabs. Bookish mugs and designs inspired by the plant life around my Kansas home.
I mix most of my own lead-free glazes. Everything in my shop is food safe unless otherwise noted.
My son Kayden has been making throw pillows, masks and hot pads! You will find them in the Kayden's Creations section of my shop.

5 out of 5 starsThis is the third mug I have bought from this seller. Very unique, beautiful, sturdy and very peaceful to drink out of. This one was a gift for my sister and she absolutely was touched by it. Thank you for your work!

5 out of 5 starsTruly one of the best experiences I’ve ever had when ordering a custom item! Daisy made the literary mug I had been dreaming of and kept in contact throughout the entire process. I couldn’t be happier. Thank you!!

Throwing bowls on my potter's wheel.
I love making pottery
I opened my Etsy shop in February of 2010, because I wanted my work to be accessible to people everywhere, not just locally. Etsy seemed like the perfect place to do that. You can find my pottery at The White Peacock in Lindsborg, Kansas, the Dyck Arboretum gift shop in Hesston, Kansas, Twice Told Tales in McPherson, Kansas and in Topeka at the Capital building gift shop and the Kansas History Museum, as well. You will find me at several art fairs through out the year, also.
Growing up I was taught to appreciate the beauty of nature. I am always noticing interesting shaped leaves while out walking with my kids. Much of my work features plant or animal designs incised on them.
I think I've always had an interest in creative activities. In grade school I remember telling people I was going to be an artist when I grew up. I would spend hours drawing or playing in the mud outside.
I took art classes in high school and enjoyed them so much that I decided to major in art in college. I graduated from Bethany College in Lindsborg, Kansas in 2006 with a BA in Art Administration. When I graduated my husband and our parents got me a kiln and a potter's wheel, so I had the tools I needed to set up my pottery studio. My studio is across the driveway from my house on our family farm. My father-in-law had bees years ago, so I now get to use the "honey house" where he once processed the honey.
