We haven’t figured out how to snag her hair (or her wardrobe, or a prince), but at least now we can drink our tea likePrincess Kate.
On Wednesday, the royal visited theEmma Bridgewater pottery factoryin Staffordshire, England, which crafts hand-painted mugs to benefit the Nook appeal initiative for children’s hospices.
Naturally, thepregnant princessmade painting a mug — she opted for a ladybug motif — look as easy as pulling off non-maternity clothes in her third trimester. (We’ve yet to figure out that one, either.)
Kate’s ladybug design isn’t for sale, but Emma Bridgewater’s charming, whimsical line of pottery isavailable in the United States—and best of all, the are prices fit for a commoner.
There are tons of eye-catching patterns, but we’re big fans of the “Mum Is Queen” mug ($36.99), which would make a dreamy Mother’s Day gift (are you listening, William?), especially paired with the perfect cup of tea.
And should you have aPrince Georgein your life, the “Men At Work” set ($52.50) is adorable for mummy-and-me tea parties. (Though we can’t help but note that a tube of glue might be necessary when combining toddlers and china.)
Of course, all of Bridgewater’s items are an Anglophile’s cup of tea, but the “Wonderful London” 1/2 pint mug ($36.99) really takes the crumpet.
