Do you have a coffee lover in your life? A custom Christmas coffee mug for home or travel might be just the right gift idea. Most coffee drinkers find a favorite mug and use it for years. An easy way to get them a new favorite mug is to customize it with photos of their favorite people, their initials, monogram or name, their favorite saying or a lyric from their favorite song. It’s hard to beat a coffee mug that’s been personalized just for you!

Crafting the perfect custom mug is easy. A few design choices and your special gift will become a part of their everyday morning ritual. You don’t have to stop at just a coffee mug though, get creative.

Create a custom coffee lover’s gift pack with a photo mug for home, a travel mug for on the go caffeine consumption, and perhaps a sampling of holiday coffee they can try out this winter. You can add on other coffee-related items like a new coffee grinder, a storage container for coffee, a French press or maybe a pour over coffee maker. Or go simple and include a box of cookies or biscotti they can enjoy with their coffee. Top it off with a custom Christmas ornament in lieu of a gift tag, and your coffee lovers dream gift is complete!

Tips For Creating The Perfect Coffee Lovers Gift

When crafting the perfect coffee kit, you’ll want to decide what you’re going to include. Is this a gift for someone who likes their coffee hot or cold? If they’re an iced coffee connoisseur perhaps a custom acrylic tumbler with their name on it might be just the right item. If they prefer sipping a leisurely cup of coffee at home in the morning, go with a classic mug in either 11oz or 15 oz size. If they’re always on the go, opt for a travel tumbler with a lid to keep their coffee hot.

Before you start customizing a mug you’ll want to think about your gift recipient. What’s their personal style like? What colors do they gravitate towards? Are they classic or sporty? Would they like a mug with photos of loved ones, pets or kids? Once you’ve really thought about who you’re creating this coffee lover’s gift pack for you can start personalizing items and creating a gift that’s as special as they are.

After you have picked out the perfect coffee mug, see what other items you can include in your gift pack to make it complete. You can go practical, with things you know they’ll use like coffee, coffee creamers and coffee making accessories, or a custom cookie jar that can serve as a beautiful tabletop coffee container. You can go simple, with a basket of their favorite treats they can enjoy with their coffee.

Or you can go fun, with one or two unusual finds that they might not have expected, like a book on brewing the perfect cup of coffee (this one has great reviews: Coffee Obsession), coffee inspired wall art (this print illustrates 9 popular coffee recipes: Coffee Menu and this one describes different coffee flavors: Heart Coffee), or barista stencils they can play around with (this stencil kit includes 16 unique designs: Barista Stencils).
