The Office Mug

Picture this...you are sitting at work typing away at your computer when you get this great idea! You ask yourself, "Why don't they make coffee mugs from The Office?!" Well you are a bit too late too late on this idea because they already make such a thing. You go back to typing away at your computer.

[MugFinds! resumes] 

This next mug comes from Megan N. This is the actual coffee mug she uses at work.

I know you are dying to see it because 1. It has to be funny, I mean I already built it up to be a big thing AND 2. I know you can't stand when I draw out things to build up anticipation. 

Alright already, geesh! Here it is:

Beautiful isn't it? Was it everything you hoped for? Well I hope it was, because this is the only Dunder Mifflin coffee mug that I have received an image of.

Take care for now fellow coffee mug lovers!

Fiesta Fiesta!

Hello once again!

Sorry for not posting for a while. We just got settle into our condo and other parts of life. :) Anywho, enough about my boring life and more onto exciting things like coffee mugs!

Our next mug finds itself to this blog from Jaime R. This coffee mug happens to be the same type of almost all the dishes in our home....FIESTAWARE!!!! I love it and not just because it comes in bright colors. Oh no, I love it more because of that fact andddd because it runs in my family. The next coffee mug you are about to find was once owned by my Grandma who gave it to her daughter whose husband sent me the picture. Did you get all of that? ;)

Okay on to the fantastic coffee mug!

Tadaa! So cute isn't she?! You may be thinking to yourself at this point, "How does she know that this coffee mug is a she?" Well I don't, but the following is the story I made up: 
Once upon a time there was a yellow coffee mug named Daisy who loved to sit on cutting boards. One day Daisy was sitting on the cutting board when all of a sudden there was a loud thump! 

THUMP!

And there stood before Daisy's eyes the most handsome cup she had ever seen. Daisy approach the cup. The male cup introduce himself as Johnathan. They instantly fell in love. 

It was love at first stack.

The end!

If nature could make a coffee mug

Does nature ever speak to you?
Do you ever feel like it is calling your name?
Do you wake up in the middle of night and ask yourself "What would nature's coffee cup look like if it made one?"

Well, if you said YES to the last question then you're in luck!

I have found the coffee mug that nature made!

SHHHAAAZAM!

Now don't be fooled. This coffee mug is one from nature. And no I'm not just saying that because there is a leaf on it. (okay yes I am)

You caught me, I'm a fraud. But who cares, this is just a blog about mugs. Anywho! Let's get another picture of the mug up here.

Oh how nature can speak to you from this mug. Nature says, "Thanks for using this mug instead of a billion paper coffee cups a year!"

Thanks to Jaime R. for sending this mug in! Keep 'em coming people!


Does this coffee mug have one leaf or two on it? You decide!

Animal Mug

Hello hello!

I'm here with another mug just for your liking. This next mug is probably the first mug I received in college. In fact, now that I think about... It was my first mug in college. Not to be confused with my first mug I purchased in college. Here's the story with this mug:

Growing up, a question adults and peers always asked me is, "What's your favorite animal?" Now my favorite animal has changed over the years but at first it was a frog and later on, in an attempt to be different,a flamingo. This life changing decision of course occurred in middle school. BIG MISTAKE! Well, not a big mistake to like flamingos, but a big mistake to tell your family that you like flamingos. Every Christmas, birthday, and "just for the heck of it," I received a flamingo item. The items I now have consist of flamingo socks, stuff animals and yes...even a coffee mug!

My grandma gave me a matching set of plates, bowls, and mugs when I went off to college. By this time I was so sick of flamingos but could not refuse the kind gesture as these were things I needed. I don't hate flamingos...don't get me wrong, I just hate having a bunch of flamingo stuff that I don't know what to do with!

So here is the infamous flamingo mug!

Just look at that wonderful brown trim...It's so interesting....isn't it?

And now for the close up.

Makes you want to be a flamingo doesn't it?

Needless to say I still have this one mug (I gave the rest of the set away to a roommate who is continuing on to her masters). I love this mug! You can't tell by the picture but it is one big coffee mug and it fits nicely in my hands.

Oh...and now I've moved on to giraffes. So far I have received one metal and one stuffed animal giraffe. Not sick of them yet...but there is still time for that.


So what's you favorite animal? Do you receive a junk load of animal paraphernalia for gifts?

Oops!

Life sure has been changing for me. Work has become more stressful due to my boss quitting three weeks ago and we are in the process of buying a condo! Time sure has been controlled by these two things lately. Sorry about the lack of posts!

All that to say another mug submission has been submitted! This one comes from Shelley C. In Shelley's own words, she calls this mug weird. I don't disagree with her. Ready for it?

BAM! I feel like this mug would be the punchline to a very bad joke like....What does a mug say when a mug falls and hits the ground? OOPS! (show picture of mug to the person you are telling the joke to).

Short but sweet, hope you enjoyed it!

Failure!

I know, I know...you don't have to tell me. I already feel like a failure because I can't keep up with this blog everyday. I think I came to the conclusion that I would rather have posts when I feel inspired rather than make this feel like a chore. Sooo, with that said I am still going to update as much as possible but only when I feel like it. :) Whooo! Sure glad I got that off my chest.

Now on to the coffee mugs!

This next mug reminds me of the next art project I have taken up, making paper look old. So far I have only tried the tea bag trick by making some tea and then smearing the tea bag across the paper. Not too pretty as I just now tried it, oh well!

This coffee mug looks a lot better than the paper I am trying to age.

This coffee mug seriously wants me..wait!!! I didn't mean to type that! I mean, this coffee mug seriously makes me want some tea. And thats the story I'm sticking to.

Another angle shall we?

I love the shape of the handle. No one's hand is shaped like that, but we'll go with it anyways, won't we? 

If you could give this coffee mug's color an artsy color name what would you give it? Let's get a conversation going in the comments!

Ex. Frothy chocolate mocha brown.

Icing

This next coffee mug makes me hungry. It reminds me of some kind of baked good with icing on top. Yum... my mouth is salivating just thinking of it. I love the uniqueness of this mug and of the mugs I have been receiving.

This coffee mug definitely looks about the right size for some hot chocolate. I could really go for some now. Is it cold in anyone else's place right now?

Ahhhh, the baked good with icing and right size for hot chocolate coffee mug! What a treat!

Thanks to Jaime R. for sending this one in!
