Pros: Good quality mug
Cons: Color and quote don’t appeal to me
The Bottom Line:
Weak quote and pink mug
Make this my least favorite
Sure others will love
Questionable Quote on a Pink Mug
With as popular as the Winnie the Pooh characters are, I
wasn’t at all surprised to see them pop up in the Disney Wisdom
Collection. In fact, I would have been
surprised if they hadn’t. Unfortunately,
I do feel like the April mug is the weakest in the series, but I know it is
probably most about personal taste.
You see, the color of the month is pink – baby girl
pink. That’s never been one of my
favorite colors, and so this mug doesn’t appeal to me as much. Of course, I still got it. I’m a collector, after all, and must get all
of this series. (Seriously, businesses
love people like me.) However, people
who love pink will not have the issue with this mug I do.
Since the main character this month is Piglet, the color
makes perfect sense. In fact, this may
make the most sense of any of the sets in the series. You can see this on the side of the mud that
features Piglet. He is joined by
Tigger. They have a three-tone pink
theme going, and it makes them look great.
Okay, Tigger is usually orange, but pink works on him. These characters look the best of any of the
characters to date.
On the other side of the mug is my other issue with it – the
quote. It comes from the movie The Search for Christopher Robin and
quotes Christopher Robin as saying, “You are braver than you believe, stronger
than you seem, and smarter than you think.”
It sounds good, but I also think there is wisdom in knowing limitations
and when to ask others for help if at all possible. Maybe if I saw this quote in context in the movie,
I’d feel better about it. The quote
itself looks good in dark pink and green with doodles, some of them leaves,
surrounding it.
As with the others in this set, the mug is 14 oz and
completely dishwasher and microwave safe.
Between the color and the quote, this mug is my least
favorite in the series so far, and probably for the entire set. I have a feeling it will be the one I reach
for last on my shelf.
