A Little Pottery Care 💚

A few notes about caring for your Laurel Tree Pottery pieces:

☕ Dishwasher & Microwave Safe
My functional pottery is fired to a high temperature and is safe for both the dishwasher and microwave.

That said, I recommend hand washing whenever possible. It’s gentler on the glaze and surface of your piece and will help keep your pottery looking beautiful for years to come.

🌡️ Avoid Extreme Temperature Changes
Like any ceramic, handmade pottery can be sensitive to sudden changes in temperature. Please avoid taking a very hot piece and immediately exposing it to something very cold—or vice versa. Extreme temperature changes can cause thermal shock and, in rare cases, cracking or breakage.

A few simple habits—hand washing when you can and avoiding sudden temperature changes—will help your Laurel Tree Pottery remain a favorite for a long, long time. 🌿

Thank you for choosing handmade!

Doodled my idea but I am just not sure. Thoughts on putting this on a mug?

I am NOT taking orders or special requests for the Kleather's Pumpkin Patch mugs. The small batch I made for the Pumpkin Patch is the complete batch. Once they’re gone, they’re gone!

I know many of you have your favorites, and I truly appreciate how much you love these mugs. ❤️ But keeping the quantity limited is intentional and allows me to continue making pottery in a way that is manageable and enjoyable for me. (I'm old, I have 7 grandchildren and I am supposed to be retired, lol.)

I may make some fall mugs for a Laurel Tree Pottery drop in September or October or November, but that is not guaranteed. If I do, I’ll announce them here!

Thank you so much for understanding—and for continuing to support my little pottery adventure. 🍂🤎☕️

Well… I may have changed my mind. 🎃🍂

I had told you I wasn’t going to make mugs for Kleather’s Pumpkin Patch this year, but apparently the pumpkins had other plans! 😂

I’m happy to say that I did make a small batch of mugs for Kleather’s Pumpkin Patch this year! There won’t be nearly as many as in years past, so if you have a favorite, you’ll want to keep an eye out when they arrive at the patch.

I’m sharing Kleather’s post below so you can see what’s coming! 🎃☕️

And don’t worry—I’m still working behind the scenes on some fun pieces for Laurel Tree Pottery drops over the next couple of months. I have some new ideas I’m excited to share with you! 🤎

Sometimes the best plans are the ones that get changed. 😉

Tomorrow is opening day!!!

Laurel Tree Pottery stopped by the barn today with a gorgeous surprise!! One dozen stackable themed mugs!! I am so sorry I cannot hold, but every year I have so many requests! It just gets crazy!
I will put these out first thing tomorrow morning! We will have random mug releases on the weekends when I am blessed with a new batch! Huge thanks to our wonderful vendor who blesses us with the beauties!! 🩷

I finally got a 3d printer that I have been wanting for a long time. I've already made over a dozen stamps and I am loving being able to draw my own designs and turn them into stamps for my pottery. (Cue the music to "A Whole New World"!)
