Each piece — pottery shaped by hand, jewelry made to be worn with meaning, and the Deck of Discernment — is created slowly and with intention, meant to bring a little more groundedness into everyday life.

This is a space built on presence over polish: work that asks you to slow down, notice, and trust what you already know.

Alongside the shop, that same intention carries into coaching — [link to coaching site], where the work turns from objects to people, helping them find clarity and move forward with more trust in themselves. (Rebrand in progress — new look coming soon.)

More reflections and stories from the studio will find a home on the blog as it grows.]]></description><link>https://www.sunflowersundry.com/blog</link><generator>RSS for Node</generator><lastBuildDate>Mon, 14 Sep 2026 14:05:59 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link href="https://www.sunflowersundry.com/blog-feed.xml" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml"/><item><title><![CDATA[Bucket-Sized Mugs &#38; the Ghosts of October]]></title><description><![CDATA[Saint Louis in fall is still hot. Just a little less hot. And that small mercy feels like enough right now. The studio is full of statement pieces right now, the same three I keep coming back to. Big mugs, gnomes, and sunflower charcuterie boards, wearing their October colors this month and something else come spring. The mugs are bucket-big, because a coffee mug should hold all of your coffee, not just a polite sip of it. These are for people who want one cup and one cup only, who want to...]]></description><link>https://www.sunflowersundry.com/post/bucket-sized-mugs-the-ghosts-of-october</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6aa4c33b571318e8c9e5e27f</guid><pubDate>Sat, 12 Sep 2026 03:55:44 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/6b59d3_0582162262e74ed38e3b70db3342d451~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Carrie Reed</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Life Behind the Clay]]></title><description><![CDATA[There's a moment, every single time, right after I center the clay, when the studio goes quiet in a way that has nothing to do with actual sound. I still have music in my ears. I still hear other wheels turning around me, other hands working on their own pieces somewhere across the room. But something in my head goes still the second the clay stops wobbling and starts spinning true under my hands. That's the moment I come here for. Not the finished piece, not the glaze, not even the moment I...]]></description><link>https://www.sunflowersundry.com/post/life-behind-the-clay</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a82664fa7a7d1a936d8a4de</guid><pubDate>Tue, 04 Aug 2026 01:48:07 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/6b59d3_35b66fd280c64a1387692b34f4389700~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Carrie Reed</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why I Created Sunflower Sundry]]></title><description><![CDATA[For a long time, I thought I had to pick one thing. Pick the thing you're good at. Pick the thing that pays the bills. Pick the thing that fits neatly on a business card. I tried to do that for years, and every time I picked, I left something behind that mattered to me just as much as the thing I kept. I make pottery and jewelry by hand, wheel-thrown and slab-built, shaped a piece at a time in my own space. I'm also a certified professional life coach, and I work with people on consulting...]]></description><link>https://www.sunflowersundry.com/post/why-i-created-sunflower-sundry</link><guid isPermaLink="false">6a82570a40f3daf10ba65f7b</guid><pubDate>Sun, 02 Aug 2026 01:32:59 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/6b59d3_36401913f215453b8de849d66f252652~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_300,h_300,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Carrie Reed</dc:creator></item></channel></rss>
