holiday season in Waldkirch

While the sun is shining, we are working on cups!

Ah, the holiday season! The sun is beating down on the roofs of Waldkirch, the temperatures are climbing to unprecedented heights, and the air is filled with the unmistakable scent of sunscreen and grilled sausages. While the whole of Waldkirch is streaming into 's Bad, the popular swimming pool, to cool off in the water, we are sitting here at "Tasse mit Herz" and are busy working on our latest creations. Yes, you heard right! While others are relaxing in the swimming pool, we are juggling coffee cups instead of beach balls. But don't worry, we are having a lot of fun doing it - well, almost.

The charm of the swimming pool and the temptations of everyday life

We admit, the temptation to swap our desks for a sunbathing area at the swimming pool is great. Especially when you hear colleagues talking about their summer plans and using words like “swimming pool”, “ice cream” and “sunburn”. But someone has to make sure that our cups continue to be sold over the counter even during the holiday season!

While the children stroll through Waldkirch with huge ice cream cones and the adults enjoy their free time in the shade of the old trees in 's Bad, we spend our days between coffee cups, new designs and a fan that just doesn't create the same holiday feeling as a fresh breeze in the swimming pool. The reality of everyday work has us firmly in its grip, but hey - at least we have our own seasonal cups to make summer a little more bearable. A small consolation, right?

Waldkirch: More than just a swimming pool!

But Waldkirch has more to offer than just the swimming pool – even if we find it hard to believe at 30 degrees in the shade. For example, there is the Elztal Museum , a real treasure for anyone interested in regional history and organ building. This museum is known far beyond the city limits for its collection of imaginative barrel organs and fairground organs as well as orchestrions. Who needs the outdoor pool when you can experience four floors full of interactive installations and 1100 years of settlement history of the town of Waldkirch and the Elz Valley? Well, maybe we do - but that will remain our secret.

While we are busy working on new designs for mugs work, you can almost envy us a little. After all, we are not only surrounded by the latest cup creations in our office, but also by the knowledge that we work in a city that values ​​culture and history so much that it becomes a tourist destination even in summer. And let's be honest: a visit to the Elztal Museum sounds almost as exciting as a day at the pool, doesn't it?

Heatstroke in the office and motivation through coffee

And while the sun is burning down on the roofs of Waldkirch and we are imagining the next day at our desks, we can only console ourselves with a good coffee and the thought that this heat wave will also come to an end at some point. With a sip from our customizable cups and a daydream of the swimming pool, we manage to survive the summer. We are sure that our creative ideas for the next collections are bubbling up in the hot office - perhaps inspired by the waves in the swimming pool that we see from the office window.

But at the end of the day, when we look proudly at the work we have done, we know that we have earned a little cooling off - be it by jumping into the cool water after work or simply by taking a refreshing shower at home. But one thing is certain: no matter how hot it is outside, we will not let that stop us from continuing to design the most beautiful cups for you.

Conclusion: Working in the summer? It's easier with humor!

Yes, it's hot, and yes, we'd rather be in the bath than in the office, but with a good dose of humor, a big cup of coffee, and the prospect of some really cool mug designs for the fall, we'll manage. After all, we work in Waldkirch - a town known not only for its cool swimming pools, but also for its fascinating history and incredible organs.

And while you are enjoying a trip to the Elztal Museum or in 's bathroom cool down, remember: Somewhere in Waldkirch there is a team of creative minds working hard to put a smile on your face even in the hottest time of the year – with Cups that come from the heart .
