About This Video

I’ve been running my little home pottery studio for just over six months now, so in this video I finally give you a full tour—while I throw a matcha set. I walk you through how my space actually functions day-to-day: my workbench setup, my wheel area, shelving, and all the little “where do I put this messy thing” decisions that matter way more than you think when you’re working in a small studio. I also show my reclaim system, sink situation, and then we get into the tiny kiln—what it’s like to live with, what I use it for, and the practical stuff you need to consider if you’re thinking about firing at home. Toward the end, I add up the costs so you can see what it really takes to get a workable setup going (not just the big purchases, but the sneaky extras). If you’re planning your first home studio, my biggest takeaway is: prioritize workflow and cleanup, and build your setup around the kind of pots you actually want to make.
