Been There Christmas Texas mug joins the party of Starbucks Been There Christmas Collection. Similar to regular mug it kept all state symbols, while having that festive look with gold linings on the white background. Btw, if you decide to use it on the daily basis, please remember, you can’t place it in microwave, because of the gold paint used. While I am sure Starbucks didn’t use real gold (you wish!), paint probably has metal particles in it. … Read more
It is only October, but Christmas has already come to Sin City with Starbucks Been There Christmas Las Vegas mug. This is the third mug from Been There Christmas Collection and surely not the last one. … Read more
Here’s the another Christmas mug – Starbucks Been There Christmas Seattle. Again, it pretty much looks like the regular one, except being black and white. The first Starbucks store, a.k.a. the Pike Place Starbucks store, a.k.a. the Original Starbucks, which opened it’s doors in 1971, is presented on the front of the mug. The design of the store hasn’t change since and serves as touristic attraction nowadays, while being fully operational. While the Original Starbucks is always overcrowded, it is really hard to resist the temptation of coming inside and ordering a cup of coffee or buying a mug.… Read more
The first mug from Christmas collection for Been There Series is already here! As you can see, it is actually company’s home state – Starbucks Been There Christmas Washington. The design pretty much replicates the regular BT mug, keeping all state symbols. All colors have been removed though, except one very interesting detail. I made a collage of the regular BT Washington and Christmas Edition below. As you can see the standard cup (the one Starbucks “hides” in every Been There design) was replaced with the holiday one, painted in red making it the only colored element on the mug.… Read more
Starbucks You Are Here Christmas Switzerland has been revealed right after its smaller brother. It has exactly the same design, but is bigger in size. The box is supposed to be black (or dark grey) as well. We can only speculate now about all European (and maybe Asian) countries getting Christmas editions for YAH mugs. As usual, as soon as I get any news, will post them here.… Read more
Like it was expected, Christmas ornaments popping up here and there. This time it’s You Are Here Christmas Ornament Switzerland, following yesterday’s France. Photo credits to a Facebook user. Full sized mug will be revealed tomorrow. Stay tuned!… Read more
I know, I told this so many times before, but again, Starbucks took me by surprise. Could you imagine there will be new You Are Here Christmas Ornaments? And let me remind you, this is the first time Starbucks releases anything like that since 2014!
This particular mug is for France, and there is no regular Ornament we can compare it with. In fact, it is the copy of it’s bigger, recently released sibling, which in it’s turn resembles regular YAH France.… Read more
Breaking news!!! Even though it has been revealed that BT series gets Christmas mugs, Starbucks decided to come up with the fourth Christmas edition for You Are Here series. This time mugs are going to look really special, see the picture of this You Are Here Christmas France mug. I believe this is thanks to the red handle and I really think it was the right move from Starbucks. Do you guys agree?
The word on the street is that there will be more countries getting Christmas mugs.… Read more
After so many Christmas YAH mugs from the last holiday season it was somewhat obvious that Starbucks will try the same approach for the new Been There series at some point. Yet, I was pleasantly surprised that Been There Christmas edition mugs are now set to be released as soon as this November.
Here is a little bit bigger picture, it shows 23 mugs so far. Don’t get upset if you don’t see your favorite location, I am sure there will be more to come.… Read more
Even though it’s not Christmas yet, Starbucks decided to come up with one of the most beautiful mugs from soon to be discontinued series – You Are Here Christmas China. Again, considering the release date, we probably better call it You Are Here China Gold? Regardless, I have to repeat, this mug looks amazing. My understanding this is due to big dragon, which is not just outlined, but fully painted with Gold. This is probably one of those “must have” mugs every collector should get.… Read more
