Hi, This is Summer - The part-time potter behind Part Time Potter.

I’m a “Work-Life WORK Balance” mud player, also known as the part-time potter based in Whitehorse, Yukon, Canada

I started Part-Time Potter as a way to combine my love for making with the rhythm of real life. Inspired by people, nature, and quirky little things, I create playful, functional pottery that adds joy to the everyday.

Here at Part-Time Potter, you’ll find three main collections:

  • Handmade by Summer - Small-batch pottery made in Whitehorse studio. From cozy comfortable ergonomic mugs to joyful plates, every piece is shaped by hand and built to bring a little warmth to your daily rituals.

  • Total Mud Head 🛠️- Studio tools and accessories I’ve designed (and tested!) myself. Whether it’s the apron I wear daily, glazing clamps, or glazing brushes, these tools are made by a potter, for potters.

  • 🏔️Yukon Scenes - A line of illustrated souvenirs inspired by the wild and creative spirit of the North. Designed in Yukon and produced in small batches.

    Perfect for gifting or keeping a piece of the Yukon with you.

Whether you're here to find a special handmade piece, searching for tools to kickstart your own pottery journey, or just browsing for something that makes you smile — I’m so glad you’ve stopped by.

Welcome in. Let’s see what catches your eye today.
