9 New + Creative Ways to Give Someone a Coffee Mug Gift

“I have too many coffee mugs,” said no one ever. That’s why they make for the perfect go-to gift. But sometimes gifting *just* a mug can be less than thrilling. Whether it’s a phone case, notepad or their favorite coffee, little extras kick things up a notch and make it a gift worth giving this season. Scroll through to check out our favorite pairings below.

1. I <3 My Cat Mug ($12) + Cat Lady Pin ($10): We’re all shopping for a cat lady this holiday season. When their furry friends are their best friends, a cat lady pin and this “I <3 my cat” mug make for the purrfect gift.

2. Hustle Mug ($18) + #GirlBoss iPhone 6 Case ($40): For the #GirlBoss in your life, you can’t go wrong with a phone case and this mug. After all, they’re probably workaholics who are constantly answering emails on their iPhone, and caffeine is a must to survive the work day.

3. Blogging Day Mug ($16) + Daily Jotter ($16): You probably know at least one blogger by now, and what do bloggers love more than mugs and notepads? Answer: nothing.

4. Coffee Yeah! Mug ($10) + Coffee Beans ($18): For the peeps that must wake up and smell the coffee, opt for the classic gift of a coffee mug and beans. Bonus points if you know their favorite type of coffee.

5. Reindeer Mug Kit ($29) + Spiced Chili Hot Chocolate Mix ($15): But if they’re more of a hot chocolate person, spice things up a bit with chili-flavored hot chocolate mix and this adorable chalkboard mug. Go above and beyond with gingerbread reindeer that they can perch on their mug.

6. May Contain Gin Mug ($19) + Cheers Coasters ($14, set of 12): This set is perfect for your pal that might be sipping on something a *little* stronger than coffee. Take it to the next level by adding their favorite booze to the gift.

7. Literally Cannot Even Mug ($22) + Knit Gloves ($20): Is your friend always cold? Keep their hands toasty with a chic pair of gloves and this mug, because they literally cannot even when it’s below zero out there.

8. Typography Mug ($10) + Take Note Candle ($24): Has your BFF taken up a hand-lettering hobby this year? Wrap up a fun initial mug and this notebook-lined candle for Christmas.

9. The Adventure Begins Mug ($13) + Geometric Succulent Planter ($25): A camp mug is a no-brainer for the outdoorsy type. And if they love the outdoors, chances are their favorite way to decorate is with succulents. You can never have enough succulents.

After several Christmases, I have fully assumed the role of charcuterie-maker in my family. I geek out over arranging everything to be as perfect as possible – I’m talkin’ meats, cheeses, olives, nuts, peppers, dips, breads, and of course, crackers.

As a self-proclaimed pro, the signature mark of a great charcuterie spread is having plenty of unique flavor combos – and Trader Joe’s latest limited-edition innovation is just the thing I’ve been searching for to complete my snacky plans!

Trader Joe's

Trader Joe’s Stollen Crisps have the people going crazy. While you’d normally assume crackers to be a savory treat, these crispy bites boast raisins, orange and lemon peels, and a “dusting” of powdered sugar.

The Stollen Crisps mimic the grocery chain’s famous Fig & Olive Crisps (which also inspired the late seasonal Raisin & Rosemary Crisps and Strawberry & Jalapeño Crisps) by combining unexpected sweet notes with a savory-leaning base. Every bite will leave your Christmas dinner guests reeling!

TJ’s fanatic @traderjoeslist recently reviewed the Trader Joe’s Stollen Crisps on their Instagram account, and plenty of shoppers chimed in to share their thoughts on them – including some epic snacking combinations.

“Those are soooo good!!” one person said enthusiastically. “I [took] the lemon ricotta and blended it with some heavy cream and a pinch of sugar. OMG. Sooooo good!!!!”

“I’ve been enjoying them with brie!” another commenter wrote.

“I had these last year and couldn’t wait for them to come back,” someone else commented. “Excellent with cheese - cuts the sweetness.”

Trader Joe's

The Trader Joe’s Stollen Crisps currently go for $4.29 for 5.3 ounces worth of crunchy crackers. They have the perfect balance of sweet and savory, qualifying them as the ideal cracker to add to your Christmas plans this year. Even if you normally don’t opt for out-there flavors like this, you’re definitely going to change your mind after a bite with brie.

You’ve gotta be quick, though – this Trader Joe’s marvel is only on shelves for a limited time. Though there’s not a concrete end date for this snack, it’ll likely be gone right after the holidays. Time to stock up!

FacebookTaylor Swift's Eras Tour may have officially come to a close, but she only just revealed one of the biggest mysteries of the $2 billion cultural phenomenon: her cleaning cart. If you're confused, let me break it down for you really quickly. Every night of the tour, Taylor Swift had to sneak onstage before the show, and fans predicted very early on that she hid in a cleaning cart that crossed the grounds shortly before everything started. It quickly became tradition for concert-goers to cheer every time the cart made its nightly pilgrimage to the stage, applauding for what they assumed to be their favorite singer taking her place backstage.

While she confirmed her makeshift vehicle in the "I Can Do It With A Broken Heart" music video, she's finally giving us a peek behind the curtain — or rather, the cleaning cart. Here's what she posted!

Scroll to see what the inside of Taylor Swift's Eras Tour cleaning cart actually looks like!

Instagram/TaylorSwift

Taylor looks totally adorable, posing in her opening set body suit while sitting on a black chair in the cleaning cart. While understanding how the "August" singer got around in the cart would have been enough for me, there's plenty more inside to unpack, too. Here's everything I noticed in the cart:

  • A floral cat illustration: Such classic cat-lover behavior.
  • Printed out "Animals of the Day" flyer featuring Olivia, Meredith, and Benjamin: She's such a proud cat mom!
  • A painting of a waterside town: Fans pointed out all over social media that this is potentially Cardiff, one of her many stops on the tour.
  • More hanging and taped-up decor: I'm dying to know what else Taylor wants to see before she hits the stage!
  • A little gold and red trinket on a ledge: Is Taylor a trinket girl?!
  • A little fan in the corner: And thank goodness, because you know that girl puts in hard work on that stage!
Is there anything I missed? Let me know in the comments!
