Absolutley beautiful! There should be a "prettier" name than mug rug. These are too lovely to be called something that sounds so clunky!!

These are all so very beautiful and such thoughtful gifts. I know you put a lot of love into each of these lovely gifts. Could I get on your friends list? hehe

Thanks so much for the measurements. Just by looking at all the wonderful comments...you've made a TON of friends that could keep you pretty busy looking for cups at antique shops! (Include me in the list!) lol! ;-) ;-) ;-)
