Announcement
My name is Makayla. I am a Bulgarian who has lived on three continents. Pottery is my greatest passion and I've been fortunate to have been trained in a country with such a rich tradition in ceramics - Japan.
Travel is another passion I have. I love soaking in the beauty and culture of each place I visit and let that touch and inspire me. Then, reflect that in the pottery I make. You will find that some of my pieces are very Japanese in style since this is my country of residence, while others have a more European or American Southwest flavor, with Europe being my birthplace and Santa Fe a place where I lived for 5 years.
I like to make functional pottery. My pieces are meant to enhance your everyday experience of life. One of the things I like to make is luminaries. I like how when we place a candle inside it the piece transforms from a decorative object to a source of light and how it changes the mood of the space it is in. My other favorite pieces to make is owls. Each owl has its own character and each one is crafted with love by its creator.
Welcome to my store! I hope you have as much fun browsing through our items as we had making them!

5 out of 5 starsPackaged securely, shipped lightning fast, Makayla's communication is stellar and her craft is exquisite. Bowl is the perfect size, color, shape, everything. A work of art you can eat dill pickle chips out of, it doesn't get better than that. Thank you so much

5 out of 5 starsMy cherry blossom luminary is amazingly beautiful, and incredibly made plus Makayla's customer service could not be more excellent!!! The luminary was packed so well that it arrived in pristine condition despite the distance it had to travel!!! Love everything about this store and will definitely return to place another order soon!!!
