Coffee Mugs: Many Different Sizes, Many Different Ideas

The fun thing about coffee mugs is that there are many different styles and sizes, which means even the pickiest of coffee drinkers can find the perfect coffee mug. The standard coffee mug can hold about 11 ounces of coffee, while other coffee mugs have been known to hold as much as 15, 18, or 22 ounces of coffee.

But coffee mugs aren't simply about holding coffee, they're a means of your creative expression. Many coffee drinkers delight in choosing coffee mugs with funny sayings on them, such as "This mug is owned by a goddess," or "If you’re rich, then I’m single." Funny sayings are proof enough that coffee mugs can be both a source of coffee, and a source of laughter.

In addition, mugs make a great gift idea. They can be presented as a single gift, or they can be filled with coffee packets or chocolate or other goodies to add some additional creativity to your gift. Mugs are unique in that they can be given to just about anyone: family members, friends, co-workers, neighbors, even as a corporate gift to employees.

Photo mugs are a popular gift idea for family members. For Father’s or Mother’s Day, nothing is more personalized than an "I Love You" mug with a picture of their child or children on it. Picture mugs can be found locally at most malls, or through websites that will customize your mug for you.

Coffee mugs have recently become a popular wedding favor, too. An example of how they can be used: have a favorite love poem stenciled on the mugs, along with the couple’s name and date of marriage.

As a casual gift, mugs are ideal for co-workers. One idea for a gift is to give a mug that relates to your co-worker’s favorite pastime (for exacmple, golf is a popular one). It's also relatively easy to find mugs with funny workplace quotes, perfect for a boss or co-worker.

Coffee mugs can be found everywhere, from card stores to websites. They're relatively inexpensive, even when they're personalized, which is why they're such a popular gift. Whether personalized or not, coffee mugs are a great means of expression for anyone, even those who aren't coffee drinkers.
