Yule Gnome Mugs

In Denmark we bring out our nisse for the Jule season and give them a yummy treats to stop them from pranking us. They have a long tradition of living with people and taking care of their well being if one treats them well. So here you have a nisse of your own to care about you - just offer some sweet treats from time to time ;-)!

Tomten (sometimes called Nisse) hasn’t always been the Swedish Santa (replacing the Yule Goat); actually originating as a mythical creature in Scandinavian lore that played a role more similar to a “house gnome.” The tomten would secretly live in, or under, a house and protect the children and animals from evil or misfortune. Sometimes a tomten would even help with chores or farm work. Despite being tiny, they were also known to have a temper, playing tricks or killing livestock if offended by rudeness.
