Do you get frustrated by how much money and time is spent on gift wrap when it just ends up in the trash? It’s kind of nuts when you stop to think about it. When possible, I like to look for gift wrapping ideas that are actually part of the gift itself. Here are a couple of ways that you can give coffee mugs not only as a gift, but as gift wrap!
Personal Creations carries dozens of mug designs that can be personalized to suit everyone on your list this year. I personalized a few mugs for my parents and in-laws, and today I am going to show you how you could use those mugs as gift wrap for other little presents.
The simplest way to turn a mug into a gift is to put together a coffee themed gift. Here I tucked some specialty coffee into the mug and used coffee filters in place of tissue paper. You could also add in a coffee store gift card or some homemade biscotti.
Another gift option is to the carry the theme of the mug into the gift itself. I paired this Christmas Sweets mug with a pretty cookie cutter and a flour sack towel that I embellished with iron-on glittery snowflakes.
For a S’mores themed gift I added some chocolate cookies into the No One Spoils Them More mug. A cute marshmallow snowman ornament finishes the gift off.
You can even use a personalized mug to wrap a pricier gift. Tuck a few tickets to a baseball game into the Love You More Than… mug for the sports fan on your list.
Right now you can get 20% off of your entire Personal Creations purchase by using the coupon code, PCSM20. No minimum purchase is required, so you can use the code on one mug or a dozen!
Personal Creations is also giving away a $500 gift card to their online store. I have personalized so many things from them this year, and it’s always so fun to decide how to make each item unique. The giveaway will be open from December 1 to December 17 at midnight PST so get your entries in now!

I would personalize a casserole dish for my MIL, so when she brings it to parties and potlucks, she’ll get it back.
I have so many friends who would love something from here! Maybe I can finish up my Christmas shopping today 🙂
I would get mugs – love the ones shown.
I love the personalized jewelry box!
A casserole or pie dish!
I love the dishes – so clever! But, we also love personal ornaments!
There are so many choices! The first thing I would get would be a personalized stocking for my dog.
Those mugs are cool! I’d get the s’mores one. My girls would love the personalized stuffies.
I would get personalized ornaments for my kids. That way it would much easier to know which ornament belongs to which kid. 😉
I would make a christmas mug 🙂
I’d love to personalize some cute backpacks and water bottles for my kids!
I would love to have on of the Stoneware Casserole Dishes and some other stuff personalized for our home! I also love the Soft & Snuggly Lambs!
Great idea! I love personalized gifts! My grandma would love a personalized casserole dish or pie pan, and I want a personalized apron for me!!
My FiL is always losing my MiLs Tupperware…I’d like to personalize some for her…and my Gma is known for her cakes (among other things)…so perhaps cake containers for her. My dad is known for his wild rice hotdish, ranch oyster crackers n deep fried fish…maybe something for him too!
