  • Hi! I’m Hannah, the maker behind hans.pots. I’ve been working with clay since 2022, creating pieces inspired by color, Southern charm, and little details that make people smile. I love blending function with personality and am always dreaming up new projects and workshops. Whether it’s a one-of-a-kind piece, a fun addition to your home, or something you’ve been dreaming of, each piece is handmade with care and lots of love. I hope it brings a little joy to your everyday moments.

  • Kari of Kind Studio is a St Pete based ceramic artist and began her practice in 2014. She creates functional and decorative wares which are meant to be used in everyday life and ritual. Her work is influenced by her background in architectural design and curiosity and love for the natural world. She explores the use of texture, color and pattern in both her hand built and thrown collections of work through varying build technique, glaze use and surface ornamentation.

She brings traditional art into the craft by creating decorative and functional work with etching and painting. She participates in Craft Art Festivals and markets, and you can find her work around St Pete in local businesses such as Black Crow Coffee, Wild Roots, and Lida’s Jungle. In the Fall of 2022, Kayla founded Atelier St Pete, creating a local pottery studio and gallery in northern St. Pete.

  • Kayla is an incredible ceramic artist and teacher. She is very informative and patient when working with students and makes sure to spend time with each person she teaches to ensure they feel successful. I highly recommend taking a class with Kayla whether you are new to ceramics or looking to hone your skills. You will leave the class with work that is absolutely amazing.

  • Morgan Janssen provided easy to understand instruction as well as helpful and positive feedback. She promoted a stimulating and collaborative studio culture. She was able to work with students of different skill levels in a positive, supportive and direct way. She is a gem of a studio professor. I can’t speak highly enough of her teaching skills, dedication to the ceramic arts and ability to reach students. It was a pleasure to take courses from her.

  • I did the 2-hour wheel throwing class and have nothing but great things to say! The experience was super personalized and my instructor, Kayla was informative and so kind. I got to make two bowls, decorate them to my liking and picked them up shortly after they were fired in the kiln. Would absolutely recommend to any individual wanting to get into pottery or any group looking for a fun, crafty activity!

  • Had an amazing class with Kayla as a part of a group! This was my first time doing wheel pottery and painting pottery and she made it easy and fun. She has stencils for painting which were really helpful!

  • My boyfriend and I came in for a class a few weeks ago and had a great time learning from Kayla. Her demonstration was thorough and she was incredibly helpful as we navigated the whole process having no prior experience. You can tell she loves what she does and enjoys sharing her passion with others. We will definitely be back soon!!
