Autumn Pottery & Slow Living | Creating by Hand & Reflecting on Simplicity

Welcome back to my little corner of the world.
This is where I share my slow, handmade life — one rooted in rhythm, creativity, and connection to the natural world.

As autumn settles in here in Canada, my days are filled with pottery-making, warming fires, and quiet moments of reflection. The air is crisp, the leaves are brilliant, and the studio feels extra cozy as I shape new mugs for the season ahead.

There’s something deeply grounding about working with clay — the feel of the earth in your hands, the way it demands patience and presence. Pottery has taught me to move slowly, to accept imperfection, and to see beauty in simplicity.

In this video, I’m sharing glimpses of my autumn pottery process — throwing mugs, trimming, and preparing pieces for firing — alongside snippets of home life as the temperatures drop and the wood stove warms our straw bale house.

This time of year always inspires reflection and renewal. After a busy summer, I find comfort in slowing down, creating with intention, and embracing the quieter pace of fall.

☕ In this video, you’ll find:
– Autumn pottery studio moments
– Throwing and trimming handmade mugs
– Cozy fall reflections by the fire
– Thoughts on slow making and simple living
– Handmade clothing and the rhythm of daily creativity

💬 I’d love to know — what creative projects are you drawn to in the fall?
