Need a little anniversary gift did DH. We drink a lot of coffee so was looking for some really lovely handmade mugs to make a coffee related gift box.

Had a browse of Etsy as I sell there myself and would like to support another business but can’t find anything I love.

They need to be a good size and interesting to look at.

Any suggestions?

Thanks so much everyone - I really love the Glosters ones so think I’ll go for those, and looking for more coffee related gifts now! We have a bean to cup machine which gets a lot of use 😬

Our wedding anniversary is the day before his birthday so it’s always really tricky! Sometimes I have great ideas for gifts but definitely starting to run out of ideas after 15 years!

Wanted to update - Glosters didn’t have the colours I wanted in stock (and weirdly wouldn’t send 1st class even if I paid extra - they’re limiting to two postage days a week which is fine, but only sending 2nd class meant I was I worried they wouldn’t arrive in time).

However, I eventually found these gorgeous ones on Etsy so went for them.

So have got fancy mugs, fancy coffee beans, some handmade salted caramel brownies, a personalised marble and wood coaster and some hazelnut coffee stirrer thingies for him.

Just need to order a box, but does anyone have any ideas for anything else I could add to my fancy coffees box? Traditional gift for 11th anniversary is stainless steel but can’t find anything good (we have a coffee machine so don’t need an espresso pot or anything as that would have been perfect!)

It’s his birthday the day before and honestly after 11 years I’ve run out of ideas so this will hopefully go down well!

Did you watch the Pottery Throwdown? All of the contestants have instagram with links to their websites.

What about a stainless steel teaspoon or milk frother if you take milk? Or a stainless steel milk jug? Was going to suggest coaster but you have one sorted.
