Who am I?

Hi, I’m Kaila. Thanks for coming to check out my page.

I’ve been making pottery since 2016, and am completely obsessed. I make functional wares because I love the idea that you can have these objects in your life that add just a little bit of magic, or whimsy, or beauty, or human connection to an ordinary activity like making a sandwich or getting a cup of coffee.

More pottery things: I’m a Studio and Gallery Manager at the Clay Lounge in Boston, where I teach classes.

P.S. You might’ve known me at Kaila Braley Pottery - I just got married! Whoo hoo! :) But you can call me either and I’ll still answer.

Happy as a clam in mud.

About my work.

I was a kid who believed in fairies. Like, really truly believed they lived in my backyard, inside the biggest, gnarliest tree. I believed that magic was always hidden just beneath the surface - just behind the ferns in the forest, and just under the surface of the lake.

My work has evolved to include more illustrative critters - they’re finding me and I’m finding my way of describing them still!

I hope if that bit of my imaginative heart finds a home with you, it will remind you of your childlike imagination as well.
