Bright Sunflower Coffee Mug Gifts
How about a warm mug of sunshine to wake you up every single morning? Sunflower coffee mugs are just the very thing to cheer you up at any time of the year and particulary suit someone with a sunny and bright outlook on life.
The bright yellow flower is an uplifting sight and one that is especially welcome when the weather outside is dreary, wet and miserably cold. Why not fill this cup of sunshine with something warming to wake you up and lift your spirits at the same time.
The summer yellow, orange and flame red colors of these really happy looking flowers are a great choice for a morning brew and they also make a wonderful yet inexpensive gift idea too. Mugs make cute and inexpensive presents that can easily be filled with items such as chocolates or candy for easy gift giving.

I really struggle to get up in the mornings and having some pretty and bright colored items to look at with my morning cuppa really does help to not only wake me up but inject some positivity into my morning mood too.

Here’s a tall ceramic latte mug with a sunflower design on the front. It has a different bird and butterfly silhouette design on the back of the design which is illustrated over a checked blue pattern. This mug comes with a gift box and a lid and will hold up to 17 oz of drink. Coming with a gift box makes it far easier to wrap up ready for gift giving.
I own up to being just a little bit partial to some cake or a little cupcake with my afternoon hot cuppa. That may be a traditional cup of English tea or a strong filter coffee to wake me up during that mid-afternoon slump. What cake could be better to go with your new mug of sunshine than one designed as this flower?
There is actually a very easy sunflower cupcake decorating idea that I made use of for creating some simple summer themed little cakes. If you don't enjoy baking, then just buy a plain sponge cupcake and place it in an orange color wrapper or case.
Then rather liberally spread some yellow or cream colored frosting and icing all over the top with a blunt palette knife. Pop some little chocolate decorations in the middle and then you end up with a design that resembles this beautiful flower.

Snuggle mugs are made to wrap and warm your hands around. These rather unusual shaped mug designs (not shown) are created to hopefully be comfortable to hold because they have a lovely rounded design, perfect for cupping your hands around as you use them. Hence the name: snuggle mugs.
With the sunflower snuggle mugs (not shown) I love the fact that they also come with a rather neat surprise too. As you finish off your beverage, you’ll see the design of a sunflower (or poppy flower) come right into bloom inside the bottom of the mug.
A lot of thought has been given to this Portmeirion drinkware that comes with 2 mugs and matching teaspoons. It makes it look delightful as a gift to give yourself or someone else. They come in a box too which makes it particularly easy for wrapping up as a gift for any special occasion.
Poppies and sunflowers are my favorite flowers so I really love this duo set which features just how colorful and beautiful these gifts from nature are.

Someone who loves cats should really enjoy this boxed mug to add to their collection. It features a very sweet looking black and white cat and kitten, standing in front of a pretty sunflower design. I selected this one because it looks really similar to my own cat with the little white paws.
My cat likes to sit with me as I write so gave her seal of approval to this one. It comes gift boxed and should make someone very happy as a sweet gift. I’d really love to get this myself but my cupboard is already flowing with coffee mugs.
Since birds are a real favorite of mine and I’m an avid backyard bird watcher, you can also get a mug (not pictured) featuring birds with a sunflower design. The one I'm thinking of features characterized American Goldfinches along with a wee birdhouse both on the outside and in, butterflies, flowers and the charming sentiment which reads: Keep your face towards the sunshine! Great if you also enjoy quotes too.

Who doesn’t know the wonderful classic painting by Van Gogh. This is a traditional design that uses the original oil painting as a beautiful print.
The design wraps nearly all the way around the mug so you can enjoy the flowers from every angle. This could be great for any art lover as well as someone who enjoys the happy and cheerful sunflower.
Another beautifully designed and boxed gift mug (not pictured) ideal for a friend or someone special has the sweet sentiment: kindness is the sunshine in which virtue grows. That design features a charming scroll vine leaf background with a large flower in bloom and sweet honey bees with one inside too.
Adding a name onto a mug can make a wonderfully thoughtful gift which is ideal for a birthday, Christmas or even as a thank you to someone who will appreciate this pretty flower.
I really liked this gorgeous design from Zazzle (not shown) which easily allows you to add in your own name or short piece of text across the surface. It makes for a pretty and unique item.
Many items at Zazzle can be personalized with a name or have a space for a short quote or message to be added. As well as the obvious yellow themes, there are also rustic Fall sunflowers with more of a red appearance. You can get sunflower and butterfly designs wrapped around your cup with the words I Love Sunflowers going around the outside.
These are pretty golden colors which are comforting and make a snug looking finished piece that you can enjoy drinking from. No matter what the weather is doing outside, at least you know that you can wake up to a bit of glorious sunshine every day when you sip from a bright sunflower mug which is delightfully decorated with this bold and bright bloom.
I don’t know of any other flower that looks quite as happy and cheerful as the sunflower. Even on a rushed and rather stressful morning of trying to get to work or dropping off the kids at school, you can still enjoy being greeted with a bit of instant cheer. Do pass on a bit of summer when you gift this item to someone who could do with a little pick-me-up.
Your mood will surely be lifted with the gorgeous sight of these bright flowers splashed across your beverage container. Whether you prefer coffee or some other hot drink like cocoa or tea, these cheerful designs may be just the thing to make you smile.
