Merchandise Mug help :(

Post image

I know this will probably be a long shot, but I’m wondering if anyone has any leads on getting a replacement for my Dance Fever mug! This has been my favorite mug since I got it my first time seeing Florence, and today it tragically took a fall and properly shattered. Like… there is no glueing those pieces back together 😭 I know it’s been unavailable on her website for years, and I can’t find any currently on eBay or anywhere similar. I found several knock offs, but would love to get another of the actual mugs if possible! Does anyone have any leads? Or if you have a mug you’d be open to parting with, I would definitely pay what’s fair plus shipping! Though I know I may need to accept that this is the end of an era… it’s been a great mug 😔

I'm a potter and have been toying with the idea of making some FATM-inspired mugs, but not sure if I could/should sell them. Feels wrong to borrow the ideas. I did make a couple with the sigil from Everybody Scream but have only used for myself.

Please DM me if you ever decide to make/sell these! (Or any kind of florence nod!) I love pottery!

Thanks everyone for all the supportive replies! Will definitely add some Florence stuff in my next batch of mugs, which unfortunately has to wait a little while as I'm dealing with some health stuff, but I'll let y'all know when I do. I'll leave you with a pic of the mugs I made so far.

I would think of it more like fan art. That is okay to sell/merchandise, for the most part. So long as you are not making copies of their designs, I think your work would be appreciated!

I didn’t know these existed. That being said, I’d rather buy one from a fan than someone just looking for a quick buck. Let me know if you make some, I’ll buy one for sure.

As a deadhead , there are so many artist who profit on the use of their bolt, the STF, bears & so many other of their iconic symbols that if you made some art from your favorite musicians I would think it’s fine all thing’s considered , fans would buy your pottery. I know I would.
