My favourite mug is one I got straight from the maker. She was selling her work in my campus lobby. I bought a mug and a tiny handleless teacup. I use it as a teaball/bag dish sometimes, if I’m drinking from the mug and not using my finim strainer.

That is also a good book you have there under the mug! Though I must admit, it doesn’t look read … have you read it?

I have. It just made it out of the experience uncreased.

It’s one of the few books I think I’ll reread quite a few times in my lifetime.

I love this topic, beautiful tea gear here!

This is my favorite for 32oz of iced tea, this isn’t my picture, but I love these! I got mine at a thrift store for a dime each.

Shit! I own that exact same moose mug! What are the odds? My mom brought it as a gift for me while she was on vacation in Maine cause I love moose.

The glaze of the moose mug is so beautiful!

The mason jars with handles I have only found in thrift stores! I always see 16oz, but it’s harder to find the 32oz. I am drinking for it now! Hope you find one, I always scan for them.

Yay teacups! I would buy dozens of teacups if I had the room to store them. This one’s my favorite:

Bought it at my neighborhood Japanese market. =)

Knowing my increasing love of tea, my boyfriend bought me this for our anniversary: http://www.davidstea.com/accessories/the-perfect-tea-mug

I have a light blue one not listed on the website, and I use it nearly every day.

Hey, I got a Kati to review awhile ago, too! I thought I didn’t love it too much, but then I realised I’ve used it almost every day for weeks now.

LiberTEAS said 2010-12-08 19:43:21 -0500

I love it! I didn’t think I’d like it much either… but especially during these cold weather months, it’s so nice to hold it! I use it every day!

I like multiple steepings…3 at most.

When I was just a youngun at one of my first jobs, I had an inspiring, supportive boss who cheered me on. The mug that I use most everyday is the one I got from her as a Christmas present: http://yfrog.com/gzuw0uj

It’s the perfect mug for a big cup of steaming hot tea in the morning.

To this day whenever I look at it, it makes me think of her and smile!

This is my favorite to use at the moment. I like it because the glass doesn’t get hot to the touch, and you can watch the tea steep!

Mine is my Bird in a Tree cup from Fishs Eddy. It’s just so pretty. I used to save it for my Sunday afternoon tea, but lately I’ve been using it more. Here it is:
