Before Christmas, our mustache pint glasses appeared in Alaska Airlines Magazine, as part of their holiday gift guide. The photo may have been small, but this big feature introduced us to a lot of holiday travelers.

Glassware with a flair is a sure way to make someone smile. [...] Bread and Badger’s playful Mustache Pint Glasses have designs that give the user the appearance of a handlebar mustache while drinking ($15 each, www.breadandbadger.com).

I finally caught a glimpse of our famous Mustache Pint Glass in the Real Simple Holiday Gift Guide 2010 on their website! I knew it was out in the magazine, but I haven’t been able to get my hands on a copy yet. I don’t think it’s reached newsstands on the west coast. They even did a nice job photographing it!

Mustache Glass

Tip it to take a sip, and voila! it looks as if you’re sporting a handlebar mustache. Great for anyone with a sense of humor or a lack of facial hair.

To buy: Mustache pint glass, $15, breadandbadger.com.

I love this quote I found from Studio Slant about their new shop:

“The Premise of Studio Slant is to provide our town and the people who live in it an outlet from the Big Box. Wearing or owning something unique makes the wearer feel unique. We hate to look like everyone else, and so we plan to do our part in combating the oatmealization of the world.”

Dancing Sock Monkeys

I designed these happy dancing sock monkeys for a customer over a month ago, and I’ve been meaning to share them! I forgot to take photos of the finished glasses because I was so eager to ship them out (they were wedding gifts), but I’m thinking about adding them to our regular inventory for next year. What do you think?

Wedding + Beer = Happiness

Here are two more custom projects we recently finished for fall weddings.

This was a special request for a beard design (which I love!), to be given as groomsmen gifts. Of course, the bride and groom wanted a set for themselves as well. ;) I’d love to make more of these if people want them, but we probably won’t add them to our regular inventory unless there are a lot of requests.

This pair of pint glasses was a wedding present for the happy couple. I created the stencil based on the colorful cut-paper wedding invitation the groom created. It was tough to turn such a fantastically textured and detailed design into something small just made up of positive and negative space, but I think it turned out really nicely. It was hard to photograph since the back had a date on it and kept showing through the front of the glass. Here’s a link to the original artwork image if yo want to see what I was working with:

Offbeat Bride featured our mustache pint glasses as a suggestion for unexpected groomsmen gift ideas:

I’ve gotten a few questions lately from brides seeking the perfect offbeat groomsmen’s gifts. I’ve resisted weighing in because no two dudes are the same

We were featured in the winter issue of VenusZine magazine in 2006. The golden revolver bowl was hand-engraved, and one of a kind.
