American gifts for large budgets
#1 Mug with color-in map
This is one of the best America-themed gifts for people who love exploring every side of the US.
They can keep track of all the places they have visited on this mug!
So with every coffee, they can have a look at all the destinations they still want to visit.
There are two different options to go for.
One is a mug of the major US national parks, which is a great gift for nature lovers. The other option is a mug with the map of the US and all the states.
Oh and if you thought the colors would just fade away once you put them in the dishwasher. That’s not the case.
The ink will set by placing the mugs in the oven after coloring them. That way, the recipient can always update the mug when they’ve visited a new state or national park.
