This Giveaway is Closed – Thank You!
Whether you’re a book lover, a music lover, or both, chances are you like to indulge in your appreciation of either with a hot cup of your favorite coffee or tea by your side. I prefer having a favorite mug to fill; something that’s mine and mine alone. For years now I’ve used the same old tired yellow mug that sports a faded cartoon of the Chicago skyline. I overpaid for it in the Hancock Tower gift shop, and although it represents a very pleasant day, it was time to replace it with something not so worn. Mug Heaven has such a large selection of handmade ceramic mugs that choosing one to replace my old standby was an enjoyably difficult task. Animal mugs, personalized mugs, beautifully glazed pottery pieces that looked more like art – and that’s where I stopped.
See the photo above? It’s the mug I chose, my new sidekick while I blog, read, listen to music. It’s sitting next to me right now, filled with my favorite cappuccino. A beautiful piece which came wrapped with extreme care, so it looked simply brilliant when I received it. There’s something about a good mug that makes drinking coffee and tea seem more satisfying, like a little indulgence in the midst of my usually busy day. If you’ve ever used a good pottery mug, you probably noticed its tendency to hold onto the heat a little more than the average mass-produced, thin walled piece. That and, darn, cappuccino just looks better surrounded by a mug called “Golden Toffee and Raspberry“.
This is where it gets fun: Mug Heaven is giving away a mug to one carp(e) libris reviews reader. The winner gets to select the perfect mug to fit their personality; up to a $20 selection!

I love the Smiling Cat Face Mug. Let’s see, my coat has cats on it, I usually have embroidered cats on my t-shirts, I volunteer at a thrift shop that benefits animals and a Cat Shelter – I guess maybe I like everything to do with cats
I love the look of these mugs remind me of mugs my mom used to have!
It was a close one, but in the end I think the Red Licious Pottery Chowder Mug Bowl suits me best..hot steaming mugs of tea (I like that I can reheat it in the microwave) or chowder in the same mug!

I love the Black Mocha Creme Unique Small Mug. It’s perfect for my personality because it reminds me of how I like my coffee – dark and strong with cream only, AND I love a good mocha! I also tend to gravitate toward classic black, and this mug would look great in my kitchen with it’s black and stainless accents. Since black is slimming, I’m hoping that holding this mug would help me look a few pounds lighter – you can’t beat that!
Thanks for the chance to enter.

I would love to have the Palm Tree and Half moon mug. I dream of moving to some place warm all year round with palm trees and an ocean view and sitting on my back deck with my laptop and this coffee mug in hand writing my book that I am attempting to write. I just feel so peaceful when I think of that.

I am glad to have found Mug Heaven because of this contest. I really enjoyed looking at all the mugs. I still love the Mohanghy mug.

How could I miss entering for this. I love pottery mugs. At the very least Thank you! for giving me a wonderful sight to explore. The mug that best fits my personality is the Ocean Moon Glaze large mug. Why? My name is Indigo, the different shades of blue remind me of the dark blue in the sky before sunrise and after sunset. My husband calls it the time of day for the shades of Indigo to enter the sky. With the rich russet immersed throughout it reminds me of my Native Cherokee history. It’s a perfect blend of perfection. Thank you for this opportunity! Indigo

I like the Monet Pattern Spoon Mug. The colors are earthy and the fact that spoon is right there is perfect — I can never find the spoon I just used and end up using half a dozen in a couple of days.
The Mossy Creek mug because it’s colors fit my personality.
