Spring is nearly here and we're celebrating with a personalized mug for plenty of happy moments with a hot drink on the patio. Ahhh!

Oh my – have you seen Terrain’s new Flower of the Month Stoneware Mugs? Each is adorned with a different bloom that’s associated with a particular month. Because they’re handcrafted in stoneware ceramic, every one is ever-so-slightly different, so your mug really is your mug. We love the idea of having a mug that’s personalised with your birth month flower, and don’t forget that Mother’s Day is coming up in May, and this would make a perfect, personal present.

Holding 16 ounces, the mugs are ideal for a cup of tea or coffee on the patio, perhaps while you're watching out for your birth month bird! They're dishwasher and microwave safe – and all us gardeners are guilty of getting waylaid by a spot of weeding then needing to reheat our drink. As pretty as they are practical, the raised designs of Terrain's collection are beautifully detailed, and we love how a leaf or two cleverly wraps around the mug handle.

One of these adorable mugs would look fabulous planted up with some grocery-store-bought spring bulbs, too. To plant without drilling a drainage hole, simply put a layer of grit or gravel into the cup base to create a space for excess water to settle away from the bulb roots. Buy small potted ready-to-flower bulbs such as dwarf daffodils, grape hyacinths or Iris reticulata, and you can transfer them straight into the cup. Water sparingly but evenly so as not to swamp the bulbs – and you’re done!
