Wrapping up a few wholesale orders before diving into market and holiday prep! I have a notebook full of ideas that I am bursting to try and will share hopefully the successes (and probably failures) with you all!

Some fun info for you all…

My next market is on October 23rd at the Wonder Wild Festival hosted by @wildheartyoga 🎉
Tickets are donation based and are benefiting the Down Syndrome Association of Central Texas!

Holiday Preorders- they are coming! My hope is to have a few items available- match strikers, mugs, incense holders… with a limited amount available for preorder. I’ll have it up for a few days and then will shut it down to start working on your new babies. My hope will be to have those to you before thanksgiving! Still working on some quirks and supply stuff to determine the date but will hopefully let you all know by this weekend!

Can I get a whoop whoop for finally being in the season where you can enjoy a nice glass of red wine outside without bursting into flames? And these cuties are here to help you with all your picnic/festival/concert drinking needs.

Come and snag one tomorrow @deepeddyvodkatastingroom where I will be with lots of ceramic beauties (as well as so many other fantastic vendors) at @texasartisanmarkets artisan market from noon to 5pm! Hope to see you!

Time for an introduction!

My name is Renee and I’m the hands and heart behind Fig Tree Pots! Everything is made start to finish by me in my small home studio just outside Austin, TX. My relationship with clay started over 20 years ago when I took my first throwing class in high school and has continued to journey with me till about 6 years ago when I switched from teaching to pursuing ceramics full time. My work with clay has stretched me in ways that I would have never imagined and connected me with the loveliest people. Thank you for joining me on this adventure and welcoming pieces into your homes!

There is a always an exhale that happens whenever

There is a always an exhale that happens whenever I sit behind the wheel with a fresh ball of clay. A fresh start of a new journey. Any potter will tell you that ceramics is all about patience and it is almost impossible to rush the process. I’ve learned that each stage takes time- (whether throwing, trimming, bisque fire, glaze, and then the final firing) and each step has a specific and unique beauty all it’s own. The piece goes through multiple transitions before becoming its final, usable, form.
Reflecting on that today as I find myself in another season of transition. (Nothing crazy, just a new season of life.) Finding joy in being still and waiting as this new stage takes form. ❤️

Starting to come down after having a LOVELY time this past weekend at @thefront.market!
