Who doesn’t love letting their personality shine through their mugs? For years, #1 MOM or #1 DAD mugs reigned supreme, along with mugs featuring your favorite cartoon characters, movie references, and more. But with Snapfish, it’s easier than ever to make something 100% custom and unique for you or your loved ones.
Choose Your Mug Style
At Snapfish, we offer a wide variety of mug options for you to personalize. We have customizable 11 oz. white standard, customizable 11 oz. black standard and 15 oz. medium mugs in both white and black, as well as a 20 oz. photo coffee mug.
You can also personalize a 16 oz. grande coffee mug with a lid or our 10 oz. insulated coffee mug with lid to take with you on-the-go! Plus, there’s the 12 oz. enamel campfire mug — so cute and so easy to make your own.
Our new insulated drinkware collection of wine cups, travel tumblers (with and without handles), coffee mugs, and water bottles (insulated and stainless steel), is proving a hit with the customers
How To Design Your Personalized Mug
The next step is to choose which photos or design elements you want to include on your mug. Our easy-to-use builder makes is super straightforward. Just upload your photos, select embellishments, add text, and make a mug that is 100% uniquely you.
Are you giving a mug as a gift? We make it easy for you to create personalized sister mugs, best friend mugs, and more. Choose your favorite photo of the two of you together and add it into one of our stunning pre-made designs. No photo? No problem! We have many non-photo design layouts too. This is a gift that’s sure to make your friend or loved one smile!
We want you to love your custom mug, which is why we recommend that you only use high resolution images. This helps ensure the best possible outcome for the printing process and your end product.
What Material are Mugs Made From?
Our standard photo coffee mug, available in 11 oz., 15 oz., and 20 oz. sizes, as well as black and white colors, are ceramic. Our photo mugs are also microwave and dishwasher safe, which makes them easy to use and easy to clean! The magic coffee mug is also ceramic but should not be microwaved or put in the dishwasher, as it will ruin the magical effect!
The grande coffee mug with lid is also made with a heavyweight ceramic, featuring a matte finish, but is not recommended for dishwashing or microwaving. Handwashing is preferred for this mug style.
Our enamel campfire mug is made from stainless steel with an enamel finish and should also only be handwashed to preserve the vibrancy of your photos.
The insulated coffee mug is 4.5 inches tall and made from double-insulated stainless steel with a snap-on acrylic lid. Again, handwashing is recommended for this mug style.
Each of our coffee mugs are durable and gorgeous, especially if you follow our best practices for preserving the image quality.
