Ask a mother how her tea is, and she will tell you it went cold an hour ago. It was made and then forgotten because someone needed a shoe, a snack or a lift, and the day moved on. A mother deserves a mug that makes her feel looked after when she does manage to sit down with it. This pastel rainbow design was made with her in mind.
The soft rainbow colours make it a gentle sort of present. You can have it say Mummy, Mum or a name, whichever she is called in your house, so it is clear who it belongs to and nobody else need borrow it. The design is printed on both sides, which suits drinkers who hold their mug in either hand.
It is an 11oz ceramic mug, safe for the dishwasher and the microwave, so a reheated cup of tea, which is a mother’s usual kind, will not be a problem. We make every mug to order by hand in our Suffolk studio, and each one is set up with the wording you have chosen.
Before it leaves us, the mug is wrapped in tissue paper and bubble wrap and packed in a sturdy cardboard box. If you would like it to go straight to her, we can post it directly, and you are welcome to add a message to put in the package.
It is a thoughtful Mother’s Day present, though it works on any day of the year, for a mum, a mum-to-be or a stepmother who has earned a quiet moment and a warm drink.
