These mugs are so whimsical and magically we literally want them ALL. 

Who is the brilliant mind behind such a fun and lovely idea? Meet the talented Brooke! Brooke is a lover of all living things, born on the Front Range of Colorado, and currently living alongside the Atlantic ocean, spending her days with her "hands in the mud and her feet in the sand."

Written on Brooke's website, she shares the inspiration behind such whimsical ceramic pieces, "The process always begins with inspiration. The coast of Maine and the mountains of Colorado are my muses. 

Ceramics are thrown, hand-built, pinched, coiled, or slip cast. Depending on the resources they are fired in electric, gas, salt, or wood kilns. Functional pieces are always lead-free and food safe."

Brooke's animal-inspired mugs are so lovely, you can have a closer look at all her ceramics on AP Curiosities.

Meet the 'Gentleman Felter,' an artist who creates stunning works of art on old wooden brushes. 

"I am a needle felt artist from a small village on the Northumbrian coast in the UK surrounded by castles, cats and copious amounts of tea. I find old, beaten up, heavily used brushes that nobody would look twice at and bring them back to life with tiny animals stabbed to life with wool, creating whimsical pieces filled with life, curiosity, and danger."
