31 DAYS OF COFFEE MUGS: Girlie Coffee Mugs from Rose Art Prints


Girlie Coffee Mugs from Rose Art Prints
Though I am not a girly girl, I cannot help but love the girl-themed coffee mugs that I just discovered on Etsy. They're perfect for anyone who is a girlie girl and even for those of us who just appreciate one or another of the very pretty images.

They were created using the illustrations and watercolor artwork of artist Julia Upcott and sold in her online shop, Art Rose Prints on Etsy.

I challenge you to pick just one. I have to say I love them all but am especially fond of the donut mug though I am not entirely sure what that says about me other than the fact that I love a pretty donut!

I also like the very pretty initial mug which can be, of course, customised for you. There are lots of mugs around that are decorated with an initial but not many that are pretty the way this one is.

I also like the Chanel No. 5 mug though I would not choose it for myself but there is something nostalgic about the image. The eyelash and lipstick mugs are fun, too especially for someone who loves makeup!

Pink Donut Coffee Mug
As a bonus for Canadians, this artwork is created by a Canadian artist, so if you want to shop Canadian and support a local artist, you can do so with any purchase from Julia's shop. Note that her wonderful images are available on a wide variety of formats that include not just coffee mugs but also prints, pillows, calendars and cards. 

Julia's work gives meaning to the words Pretty in Pink!  You can find her work on Etsy by clicking any of the photographs on this page or by following this link.

Eyelashes Coffee mugI am looking forward to Etsy's Made in Canada national pop-up event on September 24 though I have never attended an event before.  If you are interested in checking out the event yourself, you can find the list of locations on Etsy here. You'll see cities listed from coast to coast including Halifax and Vancouver and many cities in between. What a great opportunity to support  Canadian artists!

31 DAYS OF COFFEE MUGS: Don't Borrow Trouble Borrow Money Coffee Mug

I apologize in advance if this humorous vintage coffee mug is no longer available. However, some mugs just beg to be shared and I wanted to add this one to my collection here online before it disappeared forever.

What is it about this mug that appealed to me? Well, the comment on the side made me smile. It reads, "Don't borrow trouble, borrow money then trouble will follow you."

Of course, the bold orange color is also appealing.

Created by Prestige Ceramics and Crown Art Products in Canada, it would surely be a one of a kind gift idea for someone who is in the business of borrowing (or should I say lending) money, LOL.

If you are interested in buying it - maybe you are a banker - visit Swhirling Dervish's store on Etsy by clicking this link. If this one is no longer available, maybe you will find another vintage mug that appeals to you.

The Muppets Most Wanted Coffee Mugs
Woo Hoo! Along with the new Muppets movie The Muppets: Most Wanted came a handsome new new line of coffee mugs from Disney.

On this page, celebrate your love of this very successful movie franchise that started many years ago with a humble man by the name of Jim Henson, which now continues on with the hugely successful movie company, Disney. A Muppet coffee mug is an affordable, practical and personal gift idea for anyone who is obsessed with The Muppets!

2021 UPDATE: These handsome mugs are discontinued. Some of them are still available through Amazon by following the links shown below but if you have no luck there, be sure to look for these Muppets Most Wanted mugs on eBay by clicking here.

The Muppets Most Wanted Kermit Coffee Mug

Kermit the Frog Coffee Mug


There is no question in my mind that Kermit the Frog is Jim Henson’s most popular Muppet character though some would argue that Miss Piggy ranks right up there, too. Kermit the Frog was introduced to the world by Henson in 1955 long before The Muppet Show and Kermit eventually went on to star in many programs including but not limited to The Muppet Show and Sesame Street. More recently Kermit and the whole gang have had a comeback led by the Disney Company that has included two very successful movies, The Muppets and The Muppets: Most Wanted.This Kermit the Frog Most Wanted coffee mug is a simple, affordable way to show you love Kermit the Frog, the little green guy who brought us the Rainbow Connection and so much more. Find Kermit on Amazon by clicking right here.

The Muppets Most Wanted Miss Piggy Coffee Mug

Miss Piggy Coffee Mug


Miss Piggy started out with a small role on The Muppet Show but, as you all know, her role is now as big as her personality. She is one diva of a pig. One who loves the limelight and will stop at nothing in pursuit of what she wants. She is, as Frank Oz who played her in The Muppet Show said, “A truck driver wanting to be a woman.”If you relate to Miss Piggy in any way or simply desire to have every Muppet in your coffee mug collection, you will want to own this mug in which the starlet is, as usual, very pretty in pink. Find Miss Piggy on Amazon here.

The Muppets Most Wanted Animal Coffee Mug

Animal Coffee Mug


Wow! Animal is not to be missed physically or visually and nor is this coffee mug. It's brilliant! Animal is the CRAZY drummer originally from The Muppet band Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem and was created by Michael Frith. Wikipedia says that Animal first appeared in 1976 on The Muppet Show. Whether you think of yourself as an animal or not, this Animal-themed coffee mug is a simple, affordable way to show you love the crazy red Muppet drummer. Find Animal on Amazon here.

The Muppets Most Wanted Gonzo Coffee Mug
Gonzo Coffee Mug


Although I think of him loosely as Gonzo, Gonzo is actually The Great Gonzo. Gonzo appeared first in 1970 in a Christmas program called The Great Santa Claus Switch. Like Miss Piggy, he started as a minor character but has grown to be much more than that.There's something special about Gonzo. That might be because he's a puppet NOT based on a human being or an animal. If you like him because his physical attributes, which include blue fur, purple feathers, bug-eyes and a hooked nose, make him different, this is the mug to add to your collection. Find Gonzo on Amazon here.

The Muppets Most Wanted Fozzie Bear Coffee Mug

Fozzie Coffee Mug


Here’s the comedian of the bunch. Fozzie is a great big fuzzy teddy bear of sorts who, like Miss Piggy and Animal, also made his first appearance on The Muppet Show. He’s a stand-up comedian whose jokes, well, often just don’t work. If you’re inclined to crack jokes whether successfully or unsuccessfully and you like repeating Fozzie’s trademark "Wocka Wocka Wocka," then this is the Most Wanted coffee mug for you. Find Fozzie on Amazon here.

Which of these Muppets Most Wanted coffee mugs do you like the best? Is there a Muppet mug in your future?

A note. When I first wrote this page in 2014, these mugs were readily available and affordable. Of course, once they go out of production, they become harder to find and more expensive.  If the links shown above on this page do not lead you to a successful buying opportunity on Amazon, use this link to check out all of the Muppets Most Wanted coffee mugs on eBay. Good luck to you in your search!
