You Are Here Ornament – Scotland

Posted on by

It was just yesterday that I wondered if there were any new releases on Friday, as it usually happens, and voila, someone reveals a picture of You Are Here Ornament – Scotland today. Here’s the link to the bigger mug for comparison.
“Nessie”, Loch Ness Monster, is still there as an essential part of the local folklore.
I would also like to mention the Great Highland bagpipe on the other side of the mug. Interesting enough, while when we think of bagpipe, we remember Scotland, it came from Spain in the 15th century.… Read more

You Are Here Ornament – France

Posted on by

Starbucks made us wait quite a while for this cutie. There is no definitive answer whether You Are Here Ornament – France hit the stores or not. The picture you’re seeing is coming from eBay and some people report being able to buy it in Paris. This uncertainty should not stop real collectors from hunting this mini mug down. Am I right, guys? If you happen to get it, please share your findings in comments.

You Are Here – Ireland

Posted on by

What a pleasant Friday release from Starbucks! As per increasing collectors’ demand, You Are Here – Ireland mug is finally here. Obviously featuring:
– Shamrock – the national flower of Ireland. St Patrick used the shamrock’s three leaves to explain the Holy Trinity to the pagans during his mission of Christianizing Ireland. Shamrock is also a symbol of luck, mainly if it has four leaves. It was also an important symbol to the ancient Irish druids who believed that everything important in the world comes in threes, like the three dominions of earth, sky, and sea, as an example.… Read more

You Are Here Ornament – Italy

There are only two stores in Italy, nonetheless, Starbucks introduced the mini version of the previously released mug. Here’s the photo of You Are Here Ornament Italy, which has been spotted today in Milan. As far as I remember, they only sell mugs in the store, other than Reserve (correct me if I am wrong in the comments). Keep that in mind, when visiting Milan. On a similar note, it is always a good idea to call the store in advance to check the availability of mugs and ornaments.… Read more

This mini mug has a green string and apart from being a copy of a bigger Belgium YAH, resembles Brussels. It features a row of historic houses of different colors on the front and the Museum of the City of Brussels (located in the Maison du Roi (King’s House) or Broodhuis (Breadhouse)) on the side.… Read more
