Mother's Day Buying Guide part II

 Most people have a special mug that is close to their heart.

Moms, too.

Which brings us to some muggage amma show you.

The neat things about mugs is that while they're good for tea and coffee and that, they're also good for putting candy in, as well as sparkly little bijoux and other small treasures.

Let's get started, shall we?

Something family-oriented, from an circa 1910 song sheet

My shop has hundreds of items graced with old sheet music art

====================================================================

Something else family-oriented, depicting Mom, Dad, and their two little cherubs

My shop has hundreds of items graced with baroque prints.

========================================================================

Roses again!
My shop has over 1,000 items graced with floral prints.
=======================================================================


Meet the Vegetables !!

  Something very fun for the kitchen and/or if Mom is vegetarian or vegan.

=====================================================================

Let's go to Tuscany !!

And/or experience the Italian Renaissance!
======================================================================

Everybody wants Mom to be happy, sooo why not give her...

The bluebird of happiness !!!

======================================================================

That's it for mugs today.  To see all 800+ mugs in my shop, go here:
