As the owner of 42 coffee mugs (yes I counted) the only thing more important to me than my coffee blend is the mugs I pour it into. I have mugs for the holidays, summer mugs, birthday mugs, mugs with initials; basically, I have a mug for every coffee occasion. But I can always use more and if you’re a java drinker I bet you feel the same way.
So, whether you want to give a “custom” mug as a gift or just want one with your favorite saying, my list of 20 crazy cool DIY coffee mugs has just what you need.
