Description
This stoneware mug takes the shape of a little watering can, with a yellow spout on one side, a curved yellow handle on the other and a cream body covered in a cheerful floral print. At the centre, inside a scalloped blue frame, a little blue bird perches on a leafy branch beneath the words wonderful MUM in bold red lettering. Around it, tulips, blue blossoms, sprigs of berries, tiny hearts and bright red ladybirds are scattered across the cream. The spout finishes in a pierced rose, just like a real watering can. It stands 9cm tall and measures 16.5cm wide, a cosy everyday size for a hot drink.
We think it makes a thoughtful gift for a mum who loves flowers, and the printed words say exactly what you want her to hear every time she reaches for it. It is a happy companion for a morning cup of tea or coffee at the kitchen table, a mid-afternoon brew at her desk or a slow weekend breakfast. The watering can shape is a lovely nod to the garden, so it suits a sunny kitchen, a conservatory shelf or a cottage-style dresser between uses, where the bright print adds a little colour. It is the kind of everyday piece that raises a smile long after the wrapping is gone.
The mug is made from stoneware, a type of ceramic, and has a smooth glossy finish that shows off the colours. The loop handle is generous enough to hold comfortably, and the flat base sits steadily on a table or shelf. To keep the print looking its best, we suggest washing it gently by hand in warm soapy water and drying it with a soft cloth. For a finishing touch, fill it with a few teabags or her favourite chocolates before you wrap it, and it becomes a ready-made present for her.
