So what if it’s nippy outside. Pull on your cosiest jumper, light the fire and put the kettle on. It’s time for a little self-hibernation with tea in your Gingerbread Sampler 1/2 Pint Mug.

The folksy-looking Christmas pattern on this tea mug has been applied by hand, and may well inspire you to an afternoon of crafting yourself.

Alternatively, snuggle down with a cuppa, a slice of gingerbread cake and your childhood copy of Hansel and Gretel.
