Colorful cappuchino mugs make a great gift for the coffee lover in your life. As an added bonus, if you live in NYC (or any other city where 3 feet of space cost you a trillion dollars, give or take) they take up little space and look good doing it. Also, they make […]

What’s better than a great shot of your gorgeous mug? Four great shots, of course. Add Andy-Warhol like colors and it’s officially a work of art. Throw in a few rolls of film and a photo album for a fun gift and call it a day.
