Now that Poseidon has gotten his way, and I'm substituting one Diet Coke everyday with a cup of tea (don't be silly, I'm not giving up my diet sodas completely--just yet, but I am trying to cut down), I find I'm severely lacking in the "cool mug" department. I can't earnestly continue drinking tea from a boring cup everyday. If it is to become a new habit, I have to embrace it with every fiber of my being, and I simply cannot see myself doing so without being outfitted with a hot looking teacup, pronto.
I live on the edge, which means I drink my Diet Coke straight from the can, so I've never bothered myself with finding a hip beverage vessel. It was a good run while it lasted.
Taking the bull by the proverbial horns, last week I began my mission: To find myself a tea mug that makes me want to run, not walk, to the hot water dispenser. Now the tricky part of my objective...choosing.
Bunny Blossom via Click for Art - I'm sad because this teacup and saucer makes me smile, but it is currently sold out : (
This Tokidoki tea set is also sold out, and it was my 2nd fave...boo, hiss:
guzzini from redcandy.com - now this is a bit funky!
Now for something really different...the skase teacup, based on the idea of symbiosis:
This jumbo teacup and saucer from T2 looks a bit like something my grandmother had around when I was a kid:
Electric Flowers...this may be my favorite teacup, but it comes in a set of four cups. I am accident prone, so 3 backup mugs may be a good idea?
Miam.miam Fall Retro Mug - I like the funky shape of this tea mug...this one goes on the strongly considering list:
Paperproducts Design Geodome tea mugs. I heart the retro pattern and colors:
Awww, Cat Yixing Tea Mug:
Ugggghhhh. Too many choices and I hate making such important decisions.
