If you can’t grab your hands on any Rae Dunn pottery then how about making it yourself? Well, at least a Rae Dunn inspired piece. You can use a digital cutting machine to create your own decals for the lettering or purchase Rae Dunn labels on amazon.
Did you know that Rae Dunn is not only an actual person but she started out like most of us small-time crafters with a store on Etsy, selling her simple handmade pottery? But this artist is qualified, Rae has a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Industrial Design and worked in graphics and fashion design for several years before discovering clay, which has now been her passion since 1994. Rae currently has a line of wares that is sold nationwide.
So what is the closest Rae Dunn font for Cricut? I really love “Artisan Bread” which can be found in the Cricut Design studio This is my other favorite Rae Dunn Font which you can download and use for creating your own DIY crafts.
Her merchandise has core ceramic basics like coffee mugs, bowls, and jars for tea, flour and sugar, but has it’s spin off in home design items too. Whilst her designs are easily recongisable, their simplicity makes them easy to dupe too.

Still loving the simple designs? DId you know Rae Dunn was accused of Plagiarism? Clayton Grudj accused Rae of plagerising their designs. Whilst Rae was creating perfect pieces, Clayton was instead making objects that were so rustic and out of shape, they had to be labelled with their use. Eg. Bowl, Cup, Mug. Though originally marked with a sharpie. Hence the original design. You can read more about it here.

So why Does Rae Dunn have a cult following? and what makes it Rae Dunn Pottery valuable and which pieces are worth more?
What makes it valuable is the fact that supply is low and demand is high and you have cult fans or collectors who are willing to pay much higher prices to acquire it. Especially limited edition holiday season designs featuring the Long Letters or LL as it is reffered to in the Rae Dunn Cult pages, I mean fan pages.
So what Rae Dunn designs are more popular or worth more money? Basically anything “vintage” is going to set you back a few hundred dollars, lots of these pieces were created before the cult following occurred. Vintage pieces are far more unique and sort after. So with all the Rae Dunn “inspired” crafts and DIY”s make sure you are getting the real thing. Do you know how to tell if your item is a real Rae Dunn item? Firstly there are handmade by Rae designs and Rae Designs by agents, the magenta ones are mass-produced and are not her early handmade or thrown works.
Rae Dunn’s work is just regular simple pottery that’s not that different from other items available. So what makes it so highly coveted? For one, her work is influenced by the Japanese aesthetic called wabi-sabi, which embraces the beauty of imperfections. You know kind of like the “Joy of tidying up” by Marie Kondo
Fans or Rae Dunn collectors have gone viral with swarming stores and waiting outside for hours to get the latest designs released. So what are these fans called? Rae Dunn Women. If you want to see them in action you can check out this viral tiktok showing just how crazy it can be.
