If you know me at all or follow my blog for longer than a day you know I love coffee, right? I also have an obsession with mugs. This actually started before I became a coffee drinker. I have cultivated quite the collection over the years.
(Note this is after I got rid of about 50 mugs during my pregnancy purge of all the things)
Something about a set of mugs that don’t match and have nothing to do with on another just makes me happy. I tend to buy mugs whenever I see a cute one or find a great deal.
I have at LEAST one cup of coffee a day if not four. With a new baby it’s been more on the multiple cups of coffee side of things. Community Coffee sent me these super cute mugs along with some coffee recently and the mugs have become some of our favorites.
This one especially reminds me of having coffee in a diner. You know you always see those amazing vintage looking mugs in diners? Love this.
My favorite mug in my collection though is my “blogging day” mug. It’s always the one I go for since every day is a blogging day 🙂 I love the gold and the detailing. It also is the perfect size mug for a home brewed latte or delish cup of coffee.
Weekends are the only times Andrew and I can enjoy a cup of coffee and breakfast together. I savor that time. We have both claimed a couple of the community coffee mugs for our own personal use. We tend to be very territorial about mugs. Thankfully he never goes for my girlie mugs 😉
Do you collect mugs or anything? Tell me about your favorite one below!
To win a year’s supply of Community Coffee and other coffee goodies show me your favorite mug and tag it #ShowYourMug and #contest. You could be a BIG WINNER!
I definitely have a bad habit of hoarding mugs. In fact, I ordered one online yesterday and just received an email that it’s been dispatched to my place! *claps with glee*

I love to collect mugs. My favorites are a Thomas Kinkade scene and a Dave Matthews fire dancer. Oh, and I love my Oklahoma State mug…and my mug with Angus cattle… and…. a million more. I thnk I need a shirt that says It’s a Mug Life. Do you have those yet?
I keep seeing all kinds of cute mugs everywhere and feel lame with my plain blue ones. I need to get more cute ones.
I absolutely love mugs too! I’m a tea drinker but there is something about cool graphic mugs that speak to my soul!
These are awesome! I love the Blogging Day one!

Haha I love mugs too! Especially when I can have one for each mood that I might be in. 🙂
Like Sincerely Miss J, I love the Blogging Day one! 🙂

I have inadvertently collected a number of coffee mugs over the years, too. Not on purpose, but only because I am too lazy to clean out the cabinet and throw some of them away. There is one special mug, though, that I gave to my father as a gift about 30 years ago. It has a little cartoon animal on the side and the quote: “Whatever you do, don’t make me laugh so hard that coffee comes out of my nose!” After my dad passed away in 2001, my mom was downsizing and moving, and I retrieved that mug from her kitchen cabinet. I will never throw away that coffee mug, and I still feel closer to my dad whenever I drink from it.
You mug cabinet looks so much like mine. It’s an addiction!
I got so excited when I saw the lukes diner mug! I need creative mugs like that.
I need to clean out my mugs! Haha I have HUGE mug that has penguins on it (my favorite animal) that a friend gave me in college, and it’s definitely my favorite! 🙂
I have an insane amount of mugs too, haha. I can’t seem to get rid of any though – I love them all!
You can never have to many mugs. I recently started collection mugs of my own
I’m not a coffee drinker, but love hot tea! I’m just starting to accumulate a collection of cute mugs. Do you put the one with gold in the microwave? I’m also afraid to do with my mugs with gold on them.
I’m also a mug collector and need to get my hands on the blogging one! So cute!
Must have all the mugs! I’m the same way, for sure. I need to purge of the sentimental so I can make room for more!
Oh whoa! I thought I had a lotta mugs but you have me beat! I’m with you on the whole, “You can never have enough mugs.” They bring me joy and I love selecting out the one I’m going to drink from that day!
If there is something I dont have many of it’s mugs. I love mugs, just not found the right one for me. These are nice!
I love those mugs! We have quite the collection at our house – and I don’t drink coffee. (I know. Shame on me.) One of my favorite mugs is a California Raisins mug my dad gave me for Valentine’s Day when I was a kid. Other favorites are Disney mugs and alumni mugs from my alma mater. A good mug is good to have in the house!
I love this post. Those mugs are so cute!! I am the save way with mugs. Hubby thinks we need to get rid of a lot of them but I just love them so much. Different days call for different mugs in my opinion!
OMG I LOVE mugs too! I have a whole cupboard full and can tell you why each one is still around and why it makes me smile!
I don’t collect mugs, but I have a “New Mom” mug I was given when my daughter was born that I only use on the weekends, too! It always feels so luxurious drinking out of a mug instead of a travel tumbler!
I love a good coffee mug but I am not an avid collector of them. My favorite mug is one I picked up at the zoo not too long ago.
Oh my definite favourite is the Blogging Day mug as well, I love Gold Foil mugs. The only part that annoys me is that I can’t throw them in the dishwasher, but that’s ok. I could never leave one in the dishwasher long enough, I need coffee too frequently. Haha!
I’m a collector too and I love any mug that is white with gold detail on it. Your blogging day mug is super cute
My parents love Community Coffee! I’m surprisingly not much of a coffee person but I love coffee mugs!
Love these mugs! I collect mixed matched coffee cups too. I buy too many!

I NEED that blogging day mug! I usually require lots of coffee on those days. I haven’t seen Community coffee before, but we always like trying new brands. I’ll look for it when I grocery shop today.
My cabinet looks soooo similar. I’ve had to figure out a good stacking system so that they all fit. lol.
I don’t know if I’ve ever had community coffee before. I LOVE the diner-style mug they sent!
Although I’m not a coffee drinker, I do have two special mugs in my cabinets. I use them to drink tea or hot chocolate.
I love mugs too! They’re just so fun to buy and collect different style mugs and seasonal. Love your collection!
I drink coffee but I would not say I love coffee. MY morning ritual is a cup of ginger tea rather than coffee
I recently purchased a Metal Accordion Wall Storage rack from World Market so my mugs could be on display! It’s make it so much easier to see all my cute mugs and cleared out a ton of cabinet space!
I love the top mug! There’s just something so awesome about drinking coffee in a diner. We have a locally owned diner in our small town and it’s my favorite place to get breakfast. It was also one of Brad and I’s first dates.
Hello!!! My name is Tiffany and I have a Coffee Mug addiction and I’m okay with it!! I currently have 4 shelves full in one cabinet and 3 1/2 in another… I may need to expand a bit because I think I buy at least 2 mugs a week. Coffee is Life. Community Coffee is one of my faves (I have many) I love the smooth taste and aroma.
I have this unhealthy obsession with mugs. I need an entire pantry for them–it’s bad. (: There are ENDLESS uses for mugs (but coffee might be my favorite and most often used). I love finding really unique ones at thrift/antique stores and flea markets or garage sales.
I definitely understand the mug love. I create them and I collect them. You can never ever have too many coffee mugs! I have mugs for coffee and then mugs for my tea.

Well, I think everyone here loves coffee mugs. As it’s the first thing that we drink after waking up and before going to bed also sometimes. So why not make it special every time we drink it with special mugs that are specifically designed for our habits. I found some mugs that are out there that corresponds to our habits and lifestyle. You can check them on the website listed below.
These mugs are really so awesome looking. Awesome coffee mug. love them…
I love mugs – they can be so personal and represent your personality, mood, etc.
Hail to the coffee mug and the dark elixir it may hold. Nice collection!
