Alice's Cottage Feathered Friends Spiced Mug Mat

A cheerful snowman, a bright red cardinal, and a few feathered visitors stopping by to say hello. The Alice's Cottage Feathered Friends Spiced Mug Mat captures a charming winter gathering, with a rosy-cheeked snowman dressed in a cozy red knit hat and green striped scarf. A brilliant cardinal perches among holly leaves and red berries, while a tiny blue-gray bird rests on a nearby branch and another curious little bird peeks down from the evergreen boughs above. Sprigs of mistletoe, pinecones, and winter berries complete the scene, beautifully framed by a rich cranberry-red border.

And there's a cozy surprise waiting beneath your cup. Filled with real spices, the mat releases a warm, comforting fragrance whenever you place a hot mug on top. The gentle heat awakens the spices inside, adding a little extra warmth to your morning coffee, afternoon tea, or evening hot chocolate.

Measuring 5" x 5", it's perfectly sized for your favorite mug while helping protect your tabletop. Machine washable and beautifully made in the USA, it's a lovely addition to your holiday kitchen, a cheerful accent for your office desk, or a thoughtful little gift for someone who loves snowmen, winter birds, and a cozy cup of tea.

The Story Behind the Brand

Alice's Cottage began over 40 years ago at a kitchen table in the Blue Ridge Mountains of western Maryland. What started as one woman's lifelong love of sewing, art, and nature has grown into a collection of handcrafted home and gift products enjoyed around the world.

Inspired by the birds, flowers, and changing seasons surrounding her home, the founder creates original watercolor artwork that is carefully silk-screened onto fabric. From designing and printing to cutting and sewing, every step of production takes place in western Maryland, with the help of talented local seamstresses.

Today, Alice's Cottage continues to bring together original artistry, American craftsmanship, and thoughtful details, creating charming, practical pieces that bring a little beauty and warmth into everyday life.
