    I am making mug rugs and as I give them away, many people have never heard of them. I'm trying to come up with a little poem or saying that explains what they are that I can include. Have any of you found one, writen one or are creative and can think of something?

    I am a little rug
    not for your floor,
    not for your head
    I will hold your mug

    Tea or coffee you chug?
    Then you need a mug rug!

    I'm a little mug rug,
    to hold your cup of joe.
    And if I get a spot or two,
    In the washer I can go.


    A place for everything,
    and each thing in its place:
    A rug for your mug
    gives you style and grace.

    Set your mug upon me
    and when you are through,
    I'll still look adorable
    and your table will look new.

    I'm a lonely mug rug
    and wish I had a brother.
    Be nice to ncsewer,
    and she might make another.
