Hmmm, 30off isn't very many. Depending on your budget if it's a cheap job, transfer printing which you can get at most Boots, kall kwik style put photo of chosen relative onto said mug places or this type of on-line place... Digital Printing Mug Store UK - Digital Mug printing, mug printing, custom Digital mug printing, color Digital mug printing

Other than that I'd PM the resident screenprint connection Ken (Krey) about screen printing for a better quality but a higher unit cost.

I do Mike, was sent it as a sample, but unfortunately wasn't too impressed with the qualty so didn't order any, and won't mention the company name, so no help I'm afraid!



Founded DF back in 2008, and have been addicted to it like a good DVD Box Set ever since, try and do a bit of design on the side!

I don't have any personal experience of mug printing, but I do know a few contacts that some of the companies I work for outsource this kind of work to.
I guess you could pad print mugs, but that would mean a costly setup the cheapest method would be sublimation print them heat pressing it onto the mug.

This company might be worth getting a quote from: Corporate and individual promotional products and gift ideas from Effective Advertsing Gifts

The guy you want to deal with is Des Kerridge.

I have no personal experience with them, so I can't tell how useful this might be to you Berry.

We definitely need them as part of the meet and greet pack for the meet up!

Are those 'your photo on a mug' going to be worth it for a short run? I realise the quality might not be up there.

I am currently taking part in a test Print Franchise, and they do mugs.

But the minimum amount is 72 and it is £200 + VAT for the White ones, and £210 + VAT for the coloured mugs. They can each be printed with one Spot Colour.
