Creating a Personalized Mug: What to Consider
Before you create a personalized mug, you have to think about the person you are giving it to and what the occasion is. The closer you are to someone, the more options are available. For example, you can showcase your love, friendship, or general appreciation of them.
Context, Images, and Text
On your mug, you can choose to put a picture of you two or of something they like, such as a scenery, something from a movie, a video game, or even a funny meme personalized to showcase an event that only you two know about or were involved in.
You can put their logo on the mug if they have a band. Apart from the imagery, you can add some text or just go with the text only. As mentioned before, if they have a band, you can write some of their lyrics on the mug.
If your friend is a writer, you can use some of their writings as inspiration to state a message or simply paraphrase their content on the mug. If it is their birthday, you can get quite creative with your text message or imagery, just think about what their age entices.
If it’s the age when someone normally goes off to college, and you know that they will do so, then it’s important to think about a meaningful message, something they will remember and cherish. Think about what that person means to you and a piece of general advice to help them in their new path. Let them know that you care about them.
Focus on a memory shared between the two of you and try to implement it in your custom mug. What matters is your intention and the occasion in the end.
Finding a Supplier
Now that you have some general ideas of what to focus on and create your personalized mug, it’s time to find a printing website that can make your gift. Several websites out there can help you, each with its own types of mugs, printing technology, and design software tools that are easy to use.
Focus on finding a printing website with good reviews and that can fulfill your order on time. Take a look at their design tools and try them out to see if they are easy to handle. Also, keep in mind the types of mugs that they have, what material they are made of, and check out other customer reviews for mugs to see how they turned out.
