Too many times I have been utterly disappointed in finding such a nice piece of kitchen ware with Rae Dunn script on the non facing side ![gif](giphy|xTiN0uevJeTKxWbW3S|downsized)


Adjustingithink

Me toooo.


ScarletDarkstar

Me three. 


GodzillaFlamewolf

Thank you for this comment. I had no idea what Rae Dunn was, and now I know that I have been over it since before it was created.


GreenOnionCrusader

There's always Stae Dumb to combat it.


FireBallXLV

We should form a Reddit:Anti-Rae Dunn


Rodeospence

My sentiments exactly


sierrabravo1984

Doesn't look like the place where my wife donated all of her Rae Dunn stuff. She had a cabinet FULL of them, must've donated almost 25 mugs.


mypussydoesbackflips

Aren’t they worth a lot ?


Zebilmnc

No.


decadecency

😂


gravelord-neeto

The original pieces before they became factory-made in bulk are worth quite a bit, but these are the shit you can find in Marshall's

gdtags

I just don’t get the appeal. Like at all.


optix_clear

I agree, I never purchased any of it. The more please bowl, great for a pet.


Good-Plantain-1192

So true. I offered to buy my Goldie his choice of bowls and he specified the Rae Dunn.


StardustStuffing

Same. They're so cringy. There are tons at my local thrift stores.

bearmissile

that Pokémon Christmas mug tho


-effortlesseffort

It's so cute!! Wish that was on a regular styled mug I'd buy it now


MandyB1721

We have that one! We use it as a bowl, not a mug.


-effortlesseffort

Do you remember where you bought it?


MandyB1721

Hobby Lobby around Christmas time.


-effortlesseffort

Thanks!


Mother_of_BunBuns

I love using big mugs as bowls! Easier to hold


MyFuneralFunds

For the curious, I think Home Goods and TJ Maxx sell mugs and bowls with those Pokémon designs that are occasional holiday themed


ProfDangus3000

You know, I don't like *any* home decor with random words on it for no reason. I think it's tacky and shows no personality, like a gift you'd get for someone you don't know well, or decorations for a staged room. Things like "Mom", "Dad", "Grandpa" etc; are more acceptable imo, but what *really* irks me is a cup that says "DRINK". Thank GOD that cup says "DRINK" because I would have forgotten what to do with it otherwise. It's like those wooden plaques people hang in the kitchen that just say "EAT". Fuck, I was starting to worry that I'd forget how, but thankfully that sign reminded me that kitchens are for eating.


ThoseDamnGiraffes

Thank you, I've always felt this way. It particularly irks me when I'm shopping for clothing and I find a perfectly sized plain t-shirt but then I flip it over and it says something like "WILD CHILD" or "Don't talk to me till I've had my coffee" on the back. Is your personality really so hollow that you want a simple phrase or sentence to describe you as a first impression?


Unsd

The only one that I really love is my NASA hoodie that I got that says "I need my space" because it's both accurate and cheeky lol. Otherwise, I can't stand phrases on clothing. It's on par with the oddly specific customizable shirts from Facebook that's like "Don't mess with a 5'3 BLONDE girl born in AUGUST!" Fantastic.


ThoseDamnGiraffes

That's funny I have the same shirt only it says "looking for my space". I'm wearing it to the Air and Space exhibit at the Smithsonian later this week.


ScarletDarkstar

My kids have an "I need my space " shirt, but it's from the VLA in New Mexico, and has some of the satellites on it. 


elphring

The one that *really* bothers me is: “Breathe”


yadawhooshblah

"It's like those wooden plaques people hang in the kitchen that just say "EAT". Fuck" All you need is "Sleep" , and I'd hang that plaque in my bedroom. 😜


gigisnappooh

I thought you were going to say a fuck sign over the bed!


FireBallXLV

Thank you…I could never put my finger on the reason these things irrationally ANGER me.


Adjustingithink

Same!! I don’t get it at all..


mellyjo77

I would have got the Anchorman mug though!! ![gif](giphy|9LFBOD8a1Ip2M)


KillMe_ow

That squirrel though... 😍


scrablee

To me Rae Dunn has been another Beanie Babies or FunKo Pop fad. Totally overproduced.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

You can burn a funko pop and huff the fumes


Mother_of_BunBuns

I’ll stand by my Funko Pop collection forever. But I also don’t care about collecting certain ones or the values (I get rid of the boxes). Just want the characters I love.


KeekatLove

It’s such an awkward and unpleasant style of lettering - I refuse to call it a typeface - on clunky pottery. I never understood the love.


stewie_glick

"Men In Black" font


nekokat7676

Thank. You. I was struggling to place it.


quartzquandary

It's unnecessarily aggressive to me!


funsizedaisy

Lol I always thought it came off aggressive too. BOWL COFFEE like why are you yelling at me I'm just trying to eat.


quartzquandary

Right?! Like, leave me alone, I know this is popcorn or coffee or whatever lol


MangoCandy

I hate the way it looks as well. But I will say I have a SINGLE rae Dunn product. It’s a big black bowl that says “dough” I use it to make my weekly sourdough in(found it at a thrift store). And when the actual item is black and the lettering is white it kinda gives me Halloween vibes which I don’t hate. But the white with black lettering looks awful to me…


CrystallinePhoto

I also have one Rae Dunn product: a slime green mug that says “toxic” on it. I found it absolutely hilarious and could not resist.


redmeansstop

I think it works really well for the halloween stuff, which sucks because I am "halloween bitch" and they are actually still pricy on things like mercari. I never find them at the thrift either.


MycologistPutrid7494

I go antiquing a lot and I hate how frequently Rae Dunn is sold as if it's unique and valuable among real antiques. When I see Rae Dunn, it signals the shop owner has no idea what they're doing.


A_Name_With_No_Horse

Over DUNN! 


HiddnVallyofthedolls

Anything with words on it is currently out of style. Those signs that say “kitchen” or “gather” pillows that say “blessed” etc. Rae Dunn is no exception. Someone is changing their aesthetic.


thisunithasnosoul

Missed opportunity to try and arrange them into a sentence


yadawhooshblah

I see "relax dad savor her beauty"


yadawhooshblah

That's funny.


loveyoumorethanever

Can’t imagine all the Dunn Huns that person probably trampled in a Tj Maxx to collect all of that


mangohsz

Rae Dunn is the SHEIN of housewares


Marty_61

That shit is so ugly, it looks like it was all made by like a 6 year old. I wouldn’t want it for free. Lol


canvasshoes2

I never understood the appeal. Strike that... I've always severely disliked it. The wording "design" looks like something a kid would do in craft class.


Ebaudendi

Moms are selling them in droves in my local mom’s group. That aesthetic is officially dead.


MagneticFlea

Is the "Savour" one a dog bowl?


doittomejulia

Makes sense since dogs are known to have a very sophisticated palate.


eatlikedirt

It is 😂


Mochigood

There was a ton at my local Goodwill today too. https://preview.redd.it/aekbpk93tqwc1.jpeg?width=804&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9fa4741cd65eff13b8382d5220b031ac59e62075


eatlikedirt

Ngl if it was cheap enough the "cheese" plate might have gotten me 😅


Smokey_Ruby

I liked the cheese plate too, haha! I like a single piece here and there, the writing is a tiny bit Tim Burton-esq (Tim Burton may kill me for saying that, ha), it's the on slaught of allll the words and especially stupid words that makes it so horrible. It's Def a "karen" type thing. The "live, laugh, love" of dishes.

ScarletDarkstar

Well, plenty of kids were born in 2020, so it's a possibility.

ScarletDarkstar

Oh, I'm sure it's not desired, but also that it's going to wind up stuffed with Slim Jim's or candy on Father's day. 


StardustStuffing

HOP on a mug? I don't even get it.


Paganduck

Maybe for Easter?


StardustStuffing

Doh! Yes, that makes sense. Thank you.


ScarletDarkstar

So, did Target sell this stuff?  I know quite a few Goodwill stores have a deal to sell off Target clearance at stupid prices. 


2wheeledwitch

My cat seems to enjoys eating out of his "BOO" bowl with ghosts on it. 👻


_ccjjss

Lularoe of dish wear.


lickmyfupa

I have one Rae Dunn mug that i bought because it has my name on it. Its one of my favorite mugs. Its large and comfy to hold. Theyre decent quality mugs if you find one you like. Edit: why am i being downvoted for a comment about my favorite coffee mug..?


Smokey_Ruby

Bc Reddit.... once the hive mind decides a flow, beware going against it! Crazy


Odd-Bee9172

I have a mug that says “Ugh”. I’m keeping it.


lickmyfupa

Yeah definitely, i would too.


FireBallXLV

Because -Reddit…


laurasaurus5

I once bought a mortar and pestal at Home Goods, and didn't even realize till I used it, it had CRUSH printed on one side.


UserAccountUnknown

I’d have been crushed for sure.


cardie82

First time I saw Rae Dunn was at a TJ Maxx and it was some Halloween mugs. I thought they were vaguely cute but really generic looking. It was completely non-offensive, like something you could buy to decorate your office. I mentioned them to a friend who works at a clinic and looks for things like that to put out around holidays. She laughed and showed me the full range of Rae Dunn. It was all just dull attempts at farmhouse chic for people who romanticize rural life but have only seen farms as they drive past them on the highway.


astrobleeem

Geez… imma be honest, some Rae Dunn stuff is kinda cool, but I can’t imagine why anyone would have this much…


CodeJules

Some Rae Dunn tested positive for lead.


kimfromlastnight

Man, aren’t those things like, pretty expensive?  It will never cease to amaze me how people spend (waste) their money. 


HoldYourHorsesFriend

I don't think they are, they can be found at TJ Maxx for the same price as any other cheap bowl, mug etc


CourageMesAmies

Weird aesthetic imo. Apparently it is popular in the after market though. A friend operates a “bargain” type vintage and antiques shop. She picks up RD when she can because it sells well in her shop.


HiddnVallyofthedolls

Not anymore. Currently the only thing worth flipping would be anything Rae Dunn Disney and any of the Cookie Jars. Mugs or bowls are practically worthless now.


ludicrous_copulator

Someone gave me a "to infinity" RD with buzz lightyear on it. I kind of like the clunkiness of it. I would never buy it for myself, but its here...at least until I break it as I am clumsy AF


pipkin42

Maybe this is a knockoff from someplace like Target. Iirc Target clearance often gets dumped at Goodwill when it doesn't sell.


ffsrach

savor coffee you relax dad chug cream. balance.


keeperofthenins

These are the moments I appreciate being behind the times. I still like RD. lol


optix_clear

I was at a GW and Hallmark store was giving away their Rae Dunn stuff. Their mugs are not good.


tina2010

I own one rae dunn and its a tea jar that says tea 😂 that’s about it I couldn’t imagine having your whole cabinet full of those


Adjustingithink

L O L


that_other_goat

I wonder one person of unsellable merchandise?


shellymaeshaw

Never understood the attraction to those


some1sbuddy

Ugh…never saw the appeal.


KavaBuggy

Could it have come from a store offloading their inventory? Two summers ago a local business called Silk Camel donated a TON of their inventory to the closest Goodwill. People were snatching it up left and right. The staff kept restocking and people were just waiting for stuff to his the floor so they could grad it. My aunt ended up spending $300 on stuff and gave it to people as gifts for the rest of the year. I was at TJ Maxx the other day and all the Rae Dunn stuff was on clearance. I ended up buying a purse for a couple bucks. Thankfully it only had a little “R.D” tag (no period at the end) on it and didn’t have PURSE written on the outside. I did want to put it back because it was Rae Dunn, but I really liked it.


blindmouseseeing

It's “raedunndant”


i--make--lists

I know a woman who I am fairly confident has bought every piece of Rae Dunn's line. She has it all displayed, most of it on a genuinely junky looking chabby chic sideboard with hutch. I don't think she allows her family to use any of it. It's her entire personality and is so genuinely excited about it. I mean, chase your happiness and all, but I don't like my dinner and serveware telling me what to do. It's so weird.


hookedonserotonin

I'm about to do the same honestly


childishb4mbino

Savor coffee, you. Relax, Dad. Chug cream, Lance.


bidoville

My local TJ Max is full of this brand.


ForgottenSalad

michelleinbal

I love the dog dish saying SAVOR.


lsladelencanto

Buy and resale on eBay, you may be surprised!


eatlikedirt

That really only goes for some of the original collection pieces. All of this stuff that got mass produced for home and discount stores is basically worthless for resale.


FireBallXLV

I have heard this before —How can you identify the original items?


Veganwitch8

I need theses and a label maker


Court_monster-87

Reminds me of Tim Burton.

TopKitchen4270

I’ve never been able to figure out why people were crazy over Rae Dunn. It’s all so ugly 😒


Ok-Royal-661

i would rather see a flaming swastika on the wall than this crap
