Best way to have multiple options available of same design

[daphpocket]

I'm looking for the best way to bundle all available options of one design into one product with multiple variants. For instance, I have a design called "A". I offer this in a white T-shirt with sizes from Medium to 3XL, as well as a black T-shirt with same size options, charcoal T-shirt with same size options, as well as a white, black, and charcoal sweatshirt with the same size options. That's the easy part. Where I'm running into trouble is incorporating the drinkware options, coffee cup, glass can, and tumbler, with the same design, but no size or color options. Essentially, what I want is a way to showcase each design only once on the product page and then once you click on the design you like, you go to the page where all the variants are available, which sounds simple enough, but I just can't figure out how to get the drinkware options on there as a variant without them being associated with a size and color as well without having an overwhelming cluster of 33 buttons of available option listed separately on the side to select from, which is obviously overwhelming and will drive people away, I'd think. 

Thanks for any help or advice you have.
