Listography - Mugs

I rarely join in with the Listography Linky at Kate Takes 5. I often think about it but never get around to it. Well this week I am getting round to it because it's about mugs and I love mugs.

Some might find it strange taking photos of their mugs, but not me. No, this is the kind of thing I enjoying doing. Aha, I'm the strange one!

Alas, my mug collection is not very varied as they are all Emma Bridgewater half-pint mugs. There's no dodgy mug-skeletons in my closet.  I thought I'd just share a couple of my favourites with you.

The "Will & Kate" wedding mug (nobody is allowed to use this one).


The Country Living Magazine 25th Birthday mug.


Yes, I am slightly patriotic in my mug choices. 

Pinks, because my nan loved them.



The Sampler mug because I like the pattern. 

The 2011 Christmas mug, still in regular use as it doesn't scream Christmas.


There you have it. Wonder what my mug's say about me? Over-sentimental, patriotic woman who likes to buy over-priced pottery?

Do check out other peoples entries at Kate Takes 5.

  1. What a beautiful collection you have. I'm particularly envious of the union jack one. Very smart.

  5. @Midlife Singlemum - 1/2 pint isn't really as much as you think...plus I love tea!

    @Ali - Ha, yes, I try to keep the price a secret but am not always successful!
