Hello New Hobby Potters Pals!
I’m Tammy Jo Schoppet, a fellow clay adventurer and YouTube’s “Hobby Potter” since 2011.
Living a clay lifestyle with the hobby potter mindset gives you the freedom to explore pottery and ceramics at your own pace, in your own space, or wherever you find yourself being supported for growth and education!  
With unlimited ways to work with clay, there will always be something new to learn. That’s why we embrace multiple learning styles, teachers and clay-moving concepts…so try a variety and be adventurous!
My hope is that you immerse yourself in the “journey of learning” about clay.  Enjoy the day and enjoy your clay!   ~ Tammy Jo Schoppet
