There are plenty of reasons why mugs make fantastic gifts for loved ones and friends. No matter the time of year, mugs make a great practical and thoughtful gift for anyone.
There is such a huge variety in designs, from pretty patterns to scenes from comics, that it's near impossible to find a design that doesn't feature something that someone will like. This great wealth of designs means that young or old, it is possible to find a design that suits any taste.
And it's not just the images that appear as part of the designs that make mugs a personal gift, they also offer a place to say a sentiment. Whether it's love, you're fantastic or a bawdy message - you can say it with an inspiring mug.
Plus, you don't have to stick with just buying someone one special mug, as sets of mugs are an equally fab gift for those who like to have matching crockery. Many people appreciate having a set of mugs they can bring out when they have visitors at their house.
There aren't many presents that cross the gender divide, but mugs do. There are plenty that are gender neutral in the choice of colours, images and patterns used, plus most adults tend to drink hot beverages of some kind. In the UK, mugs are used for coffee, tea, fruit tea, hot chocolate and hot malt drinks to name just a few.
Finally, if you were to buy a mug for someone as a gift, there's nothing to stop you from picking up a jar, box or bag of their favourite hot drink to give alongside the mug. Due to this, mugs are a great way of showing a friend or family member that you do know something about them and thus care about them.
