Can I see a picture of your favourite mug?

I love mugs, have started collecting them a few years ago and can never have enough. My favourite mug was a beautiful blue terracotta one I got from Greece years ago but it broke during a house move (still upsetting!). I am on a mission to find new ones to add to my collection.
Do you have different favourite ones for tea and coffee ?

Nah, there have been many 'favourite mug' threads over the years

Yes but normally the OP replies and it is not as blatant as this one with requests for a picture which means a link in reality.

There are a bunch of these posts around and they do have the flavour of AI provocation for commercial purposes.

Most of them are photos not links 🙄. What an odd paranoia.

This thread is wonderful 😂 mine is this one from Waitrose;
Nice feel to it weight wise, good size, smaller at the top so less likely to slosh (I’m clumsy!) and it feels nice, all smooth without being shiny… hard to describe! And it’s so pretty 😍

Oohh… that’s my favourite one so far

Thanks all for sharing, I am loving seeing all the mugs and reading how specific you all are (same here) about shape, size etc. it’s an important choice!

This is my favourite....and I actually made it! 🤣

How cool, would love to make my own one day! Did you just go to a course or do you do it professionally?

@DYIDIY I've been going to pottery classes for about 3 years now and would thoroughly recommend it! Just a word of warning..it's a very addictive hobby and can get very expensive! 🤣

I have another favourite, but it’s a travel mug. It’s my cosmos Corkcicle. I can put coffee in it at 7am and it’s still hot hours later.

I also have a thing for notepads, so please don’t start a thread on those.

I love the stars 🤩 couldn’t find it … enjoy 👍

Mumandcarer80 · 29/10/2024 12:23

I have a few of these and they hold loads.

I found this in the charity shop ages ago and I love it so much! It's nice and sturdy and it's got my nickname as a child (loafabread) (it's actually from the company Loaf that sells sofas) but I just love everything about it!

My mum will only drink tea out of a nice thin China mug

This is my favourite mug bought for me by my lovely daughter last Christmas. I only ever use it for my first cup of tea in the morning.

Thanks! local matalan closed down so will pop in if i ever pass one.

This is my favourite mug (pic from ebay), I have 2 in reserve just in case. cheap one from Tesco. It cheers me up, love the colours and the size. Also anyone else hate mugs that have a dark inner colour?

I got a nice bee mug at Morrisons recently. I couldn't see it on the site, but maybe they're still stocking them in store.
