Christmas mug?

[MostIneptThatEverStepped]

Where are the bestest Christmas mugs to be found?

I'd like to treat myself to one or two but can't seem to find one that I like.

Where have you found lovely ones that might be a bargain too ?

I got these ones they are lovely and a nice size

The poundshop had a penguin head mug, can't find exact picture but it's similar to these. They're quite small though, probably more for kids

I’ve got about 30 Emma Bridgewater Christmas mugs. I love them, I buy more every year. They make me happy.

Wow do you use them all year round or are they single use each for a day in December😂 also trying to imagine the size of your kitchen if you can give up two cupboards just to Christmas mugs. I do love them though.

That is an impressive collection 😲

Thanks for sharing that! I would love to have a load of Christmas mugs to be used during December and retire the usual bunch into a box somewhere for the duration.

Not on the High Street has some great mugs

Lots of reasonable and nice mugs at Tkmaxx

Have you seen all the Wrendale Christmas mugs? They are my favourite size - smooth, not tall, not too big. John Lewis have some too. They each have a different Christmas phrase inside and are based on a different animal Christmas scene so you can choose your favourites. They look beautiful.

I have this Sophie Allport mug. It's the perfect size for me - the Emma Bridgewater ones are beautiful but my tea would be cold by the time I'd worked my way down to the bottom.

Thanks for more lovely suggestions!

There's another Sophie Allport one that I saw somewhere, also really nice.

I will have a look at NOTHS, must be one of the few places I haven't looked yet!

TKMaxx yes! I love the one with doggies! Even though I don't have a dog.

Also really like those Nutcracker ones, think I have seen those in Dunelm for £4 ish!!

Here's the other Sophie Allport one:

Wrendale mugs are my favourite.

We got these in John Lewis a couple of years ago. I get them out in early November and they are the last of the Christmas things to be packed away. Perfect size for a big mug of coffee and Baileys!

Sophie Allport are the best mugs, lovely thin bone china. This is my favourite (and yes, I use it all year LOL).

@MostIneptThatEverStepped if you liked the 'filthy animal' mug there are a few on Etsy.

I do really like the Wrendale ones, especially the robins!!

@HintOfVintagePink those are great, I haven't seen anything like that this year! I did come across this little beauty on JL, not Christmassy though:

@Shufflebumnessie Thanks for the Etsy suggestion, you just opened up a new endless wormhole for me 🤣

The Portobello ones in TK Maxx are all lovely, but they’re massive. I got the polar bear one and it holds at least 1.5 of my normal sized mugs.

I recently bought an Emma Bridgewater one with robins on it as my MIL broke my Christmas robin mug.

My new EB one is very very gorgeous but very expensive. I'll never spend that amount of money on a mug again!

I too love the Boots one upthread.

Mary Ann Rogers is an artist in Northumberland and we have just received her Christmas catalogue and she has some lovely mugs including reindeer mugs which you could use all year.
I am lucky enough to have been bought two of her prints in the past as she often exhibits near us. We went to her open gallery once. She lives in the most idyllic place no wonder she is good at capturing animals expressions.
The mugs are £12 plus p&p
I don’t know if you can buy it here ( only saw them once) but I have Maxwell Williams Christmas Bells.

MsLipwig you should make that into a Christmas card. Thanks for sharing I love it. I thought I had a lot of mugs. Nowhere near as many as you if I count all my mugs.

If you don’t mind waiting then the EB Christmas ones are reduced to half price just before Christmas every year . I always buy myself at least one of the boxed sets of two every year. I have quite a collection now and use my favourite reindeer one all year round .

Ohhhhh might have to keep a look out for those reductions...

Thanks for the heads up!

@Lucked I collect EB, I’ve got over a hundred mugs now. They get rotated and also displayed on the dresser. There’s other collectors that have more than that!

@Bowerbird5 very kind, thank you.

I have made a purchase finally 😂

It may not be the last one I buy because now all I can think about is Christmas mugs.

It's from Etsy, forgot to screenshot before I bought it and after could only get a thumbnail.

Second photo was the close runner up!

Thanks for all the suggestions. I'll be keeping an eye out for the EB pre-Christmas sale and all the others!!

I got some nice ones from Dunelm.

I'm getting this one IF I finish the (same picture) cross stitch by Dec Ive yet to start it! I'd get more done if I could MN & cross stitch at the same time!!

This is a JL image but I'll probably get it direct with other things I love Wrendale.
