You might know San­dra Apper­loo as the woman behind the blog (and Insta­gram) Artis­tic Moods. But did you also know that she’s a ceram­i­cist? Since 2017, she has oper­at­ed The Pot­tery Parade and sold planters, plates, and more that are adorned with tiny faces and a whole lot of pat­terns. I’ve watched over the years how San­dra has cre­at­ed increas­ing­ly com­plex and refined pieces that now include cud­dling pots and totem-like planters. With all their charm, it’s no won­der they sell out short­ly after she releas­es a new batch.

As of writ­ing, San­dra is busy work­ing on her next set of face pots and oth­er ceram­ics that’ll be for sale in her Etsy shop. Look for her shop announce­ments on Insta­gram!
