Where does the XoXo come from?

The short story is, I couldn’t say my name as a child so I called myself Xo - bet you didn’t see that one coming did you? to be said phonetically XO (kksss oh)
The long story is it’s a term of endearment used by those closest to me.
My name is Alexia and I was born into a Greek family. Growing up I couldn’t quite say Aleee-X-iiiia so I named myself Xo, I could pronounce it so I went with it.
Little did I know 43 years later I’d still be referred to as Xo, or Xopies.

I know my parents gave me a beautiful Greek name however I don’t completely identify with it.
It was in high school that the A’s on either end of my name got chopped off and from there on I’ve been Lexi.

When I started attending ceramic classes in 2013 I had to write my name on the pieces I created.
I started stamping my clay with a XO.
The ā€˜unofficial’ me, the me that my nearest & dearest know me as.
The me that was still toying with the idea of ceramics as a full time life path, the me who didn’t totally believe in myself yet, the me who had been walking around feeling like half a person, the me who still allowed a very critical and judgmental voice to cause havoc in my soul, the me who felt scared to accept my gifts, the me who struggled to acknowledge my own light, the me who just couldn’t see me!

It wasn’t until one evening in 2017 while sitting next to a friend of mine who suggested I double XO.
Unbeknownst to me, she - a brand developer went home that night & started creating, designing & developing my brand.
I LOVED the idea of doubling the X & 0, so I started stamping all my clay with XoXo.
A representation of me.

It’s amazing how the universe sends us the exact people at the right time. She saw the me I had been denying, the me who was very ready to take a leap of faith & follow my heart, the me who was in fact very ready to take this step into my light.

Xoxopottery Designs was born.

Some people automatically assume XoXo stands for hugs & kisses.
Ultimately, it stands for love,a term of endearment, an innocences of a child, the acknowledgment of light & stepping into my creative power.
With much love always XoXo ###

I’m assuming this follower of mines husband might be regretting saying ā€œis there anything you want from Cape Town?ā€ 🤣
This baby of mine is on its way āœˆļø as hand luggage…

This piece has just been collected and is heading straight to the airport. On an over night flight to Heathrow then on a connecting flight to Barcelona ā¤ļø
My heart has officially skipped a beat.

Go live your best life my baby… I loved creating you and I’m beyond excited you’ll get to live in one of my favourite cities.

Thought I’d say quick hello and a short intro about my brand to all the new ā€˜faces’ on this platform.
Welcome and thank you for all your support.
To all the originals and ā€˜from the beginning faces’ I can’t express my gratitude. Every like, save, share, comment, purchase… repeat purchase and recommendation makes such a big difference to my business - so thank you.

My various XoXoPottery ranges are about creating pieces of functional art that can be used everyday. Alternatively purchased for ornamental use which facilitates a happier and prettier daily home life.Ā 
The beauty about Art it that it has the ability to transcend over many different objects.Ā 
My particular medium of choice at the moment is working with clay and glazes.
It’s a constant voyage of artistic discovery.Ā 
I create multifunctionalĀ  bespoke art pieces, plates, platters and bowls.Ā 
All pieces are one of a kind.Ā 
I sculpt and mix my own glazes.Ā 
I believe each bag of clay holds endless possibilities - it’s an ongoing adventure.Ā 
Doing what inspires me on a daily basis motivates me & drives my brand to greater heights.Ā 
I have a love affair with every bag of clay I open, with every piece I sculpt and with every bottle of glaze I mix.Ā 
Each imprint matters.Ā 
Each brush stroke matters.
Each piece contains part of my soul.
Each piece made with my hands from start to finish.
When I say it’s handmade - It actually means handmade by me.
