Coffee mug from North Shore gets star billing
Advertiser Staff
While shooting an ad campaign for Folgers coffee, "Grey's Anatomy" star Chandra Wilson was given a choice of mugs to use. She decided all were too plain, but found one that belonged to the owner of the home they were using for the commercial.
Turns out that mug was from Hawai'i — the homeowner had bought it while on vacation — sporting a honu (turtle). The coffee mug was from local art and design company Lee Ceramics. It's run by the brother-sister team of R. Jeff Lee and Carol Lee and is located in Waialua.
The commercial, as well as still images, outtakes and additional video footage can also be viewed on the Folgers Web site, http://folgers.com, or http://wakeupspecial.com.
