Rae Dunn Collections

Okay, fellow Rae Dunn enthusiasts, let's talk about the thrill of the hunt – especially when it comes to snagging those coveted pieces at Marshalls and HomeGoods! I know many of you, like me, are constantly on the lookout for new additions, whether it's a specific holiday mug or something to complete a themed collection. It's truly an addiction, and there's nothing quite like the rush of finding that perfect item. My best advice for navigating Marshalls and HomeGoods is to be patient and visit frequently. I've found that the best times to go are usually first thing in the morning, right after they've received a new shipment. Sometimes, you'll even spot employees still unboxing, which is prime time to see what's new. Don't just check the main Rae Dunn display; I've often discovered hidden gems tucked away on end caps, or even mixed in with other kitchenware or seasonal decor. Remember, stock varies wildly between stores, so what you don't find at one, might be waiting for you at another. I've had incredible luck finding seasonal delights like my 'HOCUS POCUS' mug for Halloween, or 'PUMPKIN LATTE' and 'SNUGGLE SEASON' mugs in the fall section. It’s all about persistence! Now, for those of you, like me, who adore the charming, cozy aesthetic of Gilmore Girls and want to infuse that Stars Hollow vibe into your home with Rae Dunn – it's totally doable, even if there aren't official "Gilmore Girls" mugs (yet!). Think about what epitomizes that world: warm drinks, comfort, small-town charm, and a touch of quirky fun. You can easily achieve this by looking for pieces that evoke a similar feeling. Consider collecting mugs with phrases like 'COZY,' 'SWEATER WEATHER,' 'FALL Y'ALL,' or 'OH MY GOURD' to capture that autumn in Stars Hollow essence. My 'HOT COCOA' and 'PEPPERMINT MOCHA' mugs are perfect for creating a warm, inviting coffee nook, just like Luke's Diner. And for that sweet, quirky charm, designs like 'LOVE BUG' or 'PUPPY LOVE' fit right in. Even a 'BEE KIND' mug can add to that wholesome, community feel. It's all about selecting pieces that resonate with the spirit of the show and arranging them to tell your own story. Beyond the mugs, keep an eye out for Rae Dunn canisters or plates with simple, rustic lettering. These can truly elevate your space and make it feel more cohesive. Whether it's for your everyday coffee or a special seasonal display, Rae Dunn offers so many ways to personalize your home. Happy collecting, and I hope you find all the treasures you're looking for!
