Here are a couple Moomin Valley mugs I received as gifts a couple years ago.
I can't describe the deep calm, reverence, these mugs, and this show in general, invoke.
I love your mugs. Makes me sad though. I had mine at work and it just disappeared into thin air one day...
: ( that sucks so bad. I'm so sorry that happened
Mugs growing legs at work is the main reason I only bring mugs I don't care about. If they take my Microsoft mug, o well. But if they take my Moomim mug, I'd be heartbroken.
It's weird too because I'm pretty sure nobody would take it, since no one knows Moomin here. I think I walked away with it somewhere and forgot it/set it down. There was construction at that time so it probably got tossed by a crew thinking it was left by the previous tenants.
Maybe they took it thinking it was left over by a previous tenant (instead of tossing it), and started using it. Liking the artwork, they researched it, and are now fans of the show and content. Maybe, [hopefully]...
