Dazey LA for Anthropologie Coffee Mug

I love this retired coffee mug that Dazey LA designed exclusively for Anthropologie. I love the simple message, Love More, and the vintage-style or retro theme. 

The company Dazey LA is owned by a woman named Dani who aims, according to Anthropologie, to "empower today's woman by encouraging conversations on self-care, women's rights, and inclusivity through energetic art, apparel, and lifestyle collections." 

Dani, who you may or may not have heard of, is an artist, graphic designer, textile designer, interior designer and fashion designer who has created pieces for companies like Anthropologie, Hot Topic, Torrid, Urban Outfitters and Macy's. Forbes magazine calls her designs "cheeky and feminist-leaning" and I agree. Though I am older than I expect is her target market, I do enjoy her designs. 

Her mugs are dishwasher and microwave safe and this Love More cup will hold 14.5 ounces of your favorite steamy, hot beverage. It measures 3 1/4 inches tall by 3 3/4 inches in diameter excluding the handle. It features a white speckled finish on the exterior and a warm, yellow or amber speckled finish on the interior. 

The simple message, "Love More" encourages happiness and positivity. The design evokes feelings of peace, love and harmony from the 1960s and 1970s. Though now discontinued, Dazey LA mugs like this one are available on eBay by clicking right here.

31 DAYS OF COFFEE MUGS (2020): Anthropologie Buoyant Letters Mug

It turned out that Anthropologie's Buoyant Letters coffee mugs were very popular. They are handsome pieces featuring an off-white background with blue water and horizon themed images and letters. 

I love the idea that with mugs that have an initial letter you can have a personalized mug for all of the members of your family in your cupboard. No more mixing up mugs. Of course, you can just have one for you.

These mugs are stoneware and Anthropologie says they are dishwasher and microwave safe. They measure 5 1/4 inches tall by 4 inches wide with a slight variations in size.  They will hold approximately 20 ounces of your favorite hot and steamy beverage.

Since these initial letter mugs are retired, the best place to search for them is eBay where you will find them available for the time being both new and used. You can click here to find the buoyant letters mugs that you need.

Are you building a collection of mugs? Letter themed ones?

31 DAYS OF COFFEE MUGS (2020): Molly Hatch Animal and Mythical Creatures Mugs

For the eleventh day of Christmas...no, it's actually the eleventh day of my 31 Days of Coffee Mugs series, I bring you another enduring favorite by Molly Hatch whose Christmas mugs I wrote about yesterday on this post. Like the ones on yesterday's post, these mugs are also fun and whimsical though these ones include animals and mythical creatures. They're done in an attractive off-white color with a blue stripe near the top and a blue pen-and-ink illustration.  

Molly Hatch's artwork can be found on everything from furniture to jewelry to ceramic pieces like that scene on these handsome mugs, which feature mythical critters that include unicorns, jackalopes, narwhals, sloths as well as real creatures like grasshoppers, llamas and dogs. The dog breeds have included the ever popular Dachshund, French Bulldog and Corgi.

Originally these drawings were produced by Molly Hatch in collaboration with Anthropologie but it seems that your best source for these retired mugs now is eBay. 

These mugs are warm and cozy or at least they are when you fill them with your favorite hot and steamy beverage.  See for yourself which ones are available right now on eBay by clicking right here.

Do you own any of Molly Hatch's mugs? Do you have a favorite piece?

31 DAYS OF COFFEE MUGS (2020): Molly Hatch Christmas Mugs

I originally discovered Molly Hatch's Christmas mugs through Anthropologie. I loved their simple charm and the creamy white and red colors. However, I have since found them at other locations including on eBay, which often serves as the best resource when something is out of production.

I have found ten different images including a pair of ice skates, a pair of Christmas stockings, a swag of mistletoe, an elf-like creature declaring happy holidays, a bounding reindeer, a decorated Christmas tree, a bow of holly, a gingerbread boy, a snowflake, a vintage-style Santa and a candy cane. I am not sure if that is all of them and I would hazard a guess that there are more to come.

Whether you collect a theme or you want a collection of Christmas-themed coffee mugs, I think that these present great options. They are done in a few different sizes, which makes them in my mind at least more pleasing to gather and display as a collection.

The artist, Molly Hatch, lives in Massachusetts where she began her work in a pottery studio. The images that decorate her pieces are drawn from her life as the daughter of a painter and a dairy farmer. She created her first line of products in 2010 and her whimsical approach appeals to many.

My favorite piece from her Christmas collection is the adorable elf because he is just plain cute. I also like the holly mug a lot because we have holly bushes outside of our front door. See for yourself which Molly Hatch Christmas mugs are available on eBay by clicking right here.

Which mug would you choose and would you choose just one or would you like to build a complete set?

Linda Fahey's Pacifica Mug from Anthropologie

This will no doubt NOT be my only post about Anthropologie mugs though it does represent my recent introduction to the fantastic, FABULOUS and fun coffee mugs that the trendy chain carries.

The design shown here is an artisan-made by Linda Fahey, a Northern California ceramicist who is inspired by the waves and the light of the Pacific Ocean and therefore adds a maritime element to her work. Anthropologie carried Pacifica, this line of dishes that feature Fahey's art in 2016.

I first discovered the rounded mug shown here, which features a beige background with a textured design on the outside and a cobalt blue sailing boat on the bottom of the interior. It measures 2 7/8 inches (7.4 cms) tall and 4 inches (10 cms) wide across the opening excluding the handle and it is both dishwasher and microwave safe. I later discovered that there was a whole line of very handsome dishes available in this pattern.

Unfortunately, Anthropologie no longer carries this pattern, which means you will have to turn to alternative sources to find this mug and the line of dishes.  Right now, you can find a few pieces from Linda Fahey's Pacifica pattern on eBay by clicking here.

See you at the coffee bar
though it will be
tea in my mug!
