We’ve all seen those lovely mug shots on Instagram, aspirational pictures of mugs and slogans, or just posed shots of bloggers drinking their morning tea or coffee #coffeeislife #ineedcoffee #instamug (yes that hashtag exists, there’s over 23000 mug pictures, but also a lot of pictures of pugs, and people who can’t spell pug). Mugs are now becoming stars in their own rights, and if you catch any Facebook lives or vlogs, there is often a cup of something featuring heavily. It just brings out the cosy factor, and if you have a catchy slogan or a funky design, it makes people warm to you and can help your brand identity if you stick to a certain style. Whether it’s a dainty vintage tea cup or a big takeaway coffee mug, funky drinking receptacles are everywhere, and can convey a marketing message well if used correctly. Here’s a few examples of some mug stars who are killing it (scroll down for the ultimate list of 70 Instagram worthy mugs):

Is it OK that I want about 20 of these? And a special cupboard to display them all. And a white room. Which ones are your favourites? If you buy any or if you have any of these, tag me on Instagram @midwifeandlife and use the hashtag #instamug, because, well why not? I’d love to see how creative you are with it. Join me for a virtual cuppa, blogging chat and support in my group Parent Blogs over on Facebook. See you soon,

Pin it!

There’s some great ones here! How do we allow ourselves to get attached to mugs though? I recently bought one in EuroDisney – a black & white mickey cartoon with a huge red K on it… that’s MINE! not the children’s or the husband’s but MINE! haha

November 18, 2017 at 8:35 amWait, this is real life? I thought I was the only person who had more mugs than I could possibly use before doing dishes again. Some of them are so fun.
November 18, 2017 at 8:35 amI can definitely see me buying a few of these for Christmas presents this year! Great choices x
November 18, 2017 at 8:42 amThis is brilliant. I love mugs, but had to down size our collection; although it is creeping up again. I am quite fussy on the size and shape too…strange woman, I know!
November 18, 2017 at 1:40 pmI absolutely love mugs and have an ever growing collection.. so some of these might be making their way into my christmas lists!
November 18, 2017 at 4:38 pmI absolutely love a good looking mug. That Joules fox mug is amazing. The problem is my cupboard is already full of mugs. Perhaps it’s time to retire some of the older ones and make a bit of space.
November 18, 2017 at 5:32 pmOMG these are all so lovely! I’m putting a couple on my christmas list 🙂
