Thank you for visiting!
Welcome!!!
This poor little website is about to get purged! It's been a long minute since I gave it some proper attention. So instead of spring shows, I will toss some new ready to ship pieces on here soon. Stay tuned!
If you are looking for a special pot or a very specific number of what is already shown here, check out mugs, vases, and the m.t.o. made to order sections.
You can also reach out via email at wareforlife@gmail.com to chat about any projects you might have in mind or pots you want to see in the world.
Stay well!!

I share studio space with several other artists, all amazing, including the always stunning @photosynthesisflorals. Rhea, fearless leader of the floral team and long time friend is one of the most generous people I know...hence the gorgeous butterfly renunculus for my silly little photo shoot.

pieces for you

Oh Hi!
My name is Carla Pillsbury, studio potter/teacher/artist. Welcome to my shop! All of the pieces are wheel thrown, hand built, glazed and fired by me.
I teach beginning and intermediate wheel throwing at Hand/Thrown, a cozy studio in the bustling Brookland Park neighborhood. Check out their website for their varied class offerings, ranging from a single day to and 8 week course!
Collaboration inspires me so if you have an idea for a piece and don’t see it here get in touch and we will build it together!
Meanwhile! For more pots, process insight and pics, follow along on instagram @wareforlife or reach out via email at wareforlife@gmail.com.
