Hello, 2026 🤍

2025 was a wild year — my very first year vending at markets. I’m beyond grateful to be part of such a warm, welcoming creative community that’s generous with knowledge, support, and kindness.

I’m kicking off 2026 with the Valentine’s Market for Makers at POST in Houston, and I couldn’t be more excited. For the first half of the year, I’m planning to vend at at least one market each month, and I’ll be sharing updates on Instagram (@eightpawsdesigns) and here on the blog.

I’m starting this year with pieces inspired by where I grew up — Poland. You’ll see lots of wildflowers and clouds, both deeply sentimental to me and tied to childhood summers spent at my grandparents’ home.

This year, I’m also going back to school — not to pursue a degree, but to deepen my ceramics practice. Between my 9–5, running a small business, and school taking up much of whatever free time I have left, I’ve decided to limit the number of markets I participate in. I truly love this craft and can’t wait to grow through more formal training. I’ll be sharing little snippets from my Spring semester at Glassell on social media.

Thank you for supporting me in 2025. I’m so looking forward to seeing some of your familiar faces — or hearing from you again — in 2026 🤍
