The other day when I was grabbing a coffee cup out for my morning coffee, I started thinking about this. I have several Winnie the Pooh cups that I use all year long untill the weather starts to cool down. Then I switch to my Christmas themed cups. I love these ones so much! I also have a set of 4 Halloween cups, but they are very small so I just let the kids use them for hot cocoa. I don't have any cups that are spring/summer color or any other holiday theme. What does your collection of holiday/season coffee cups look like? :sparkle:
Oh, and I hope I posted this in the right section. I'm new and still havn't figured out where everything goes. :)

I do seem to have a few Christmas coffee cups for some reason. :D
Somewhat related; about the only thing I collect besides Christmas tunes is coffee cups associated with radio stations. I don’t have any kind of selection method other than finding them at thrift stores, garage sales, etc. To keep money in my pocket and not get carried away, I don’t actively search for them online or pay more than a dollar for the cups that find me.

I only have mugs for Christmas. I have a matching set from Williams-Sonoma that came with gourmet hot chocolate and a hot cocoa stirrer. They have snowmen on them.
I also have a jumo-sized mug that has little Christmas lights painted on it.

We have regular and Christmas mugs. Might be tempted to get a few more Christmassy ones this year though, for when the other ones are in the dishwasher.

:scarykitty:I have a nice selection of christmas mugs that i use along with a pfaltzgraff winterberry tea kettle, that i bring out the week of Thanksgiving, and use until the New Year. I have a set of three large halloween mugs, and another set of four smaller ones. Last night I bought two more large halloween mugs. My husband and I just love large coffee mugs. We started using the new mugs today. I don't have any special mugs for other holidays though.

Ohh, us too! Three of my Winnie the Pooh cups are larger... they hold about 24oz. These are the ones that get used the most. If I replace all my Pooh cups i'll have to make sure I find ones I like in the larger size like these.

I had the most awesome starbucks Christmas mug. It was huge, white on the outside and green on the inside... I dropped it at work. :( Now I only have 1 Christmas mug from long ago and maybe 3 regular ones. I hardly ever drink coffee at home... usually apple cider and my DH doesn't either.

I found the mug on ebay, I am tempted to get it since I loved it so much!

I don't have mugs for every seaons, but I do use my Chrsitmas mugs all year round!! :smile: Some of them I save for the holidays, but I have others that are "staples" in my cupboard!!! And when we go somewhere on vacation (like to a cabin/cottage) I always scope out the Christmas mug (there is ALWAYS one) & it's mine for the weekend! :lol:

This is so funny.....my parents have way too many mugs. Almost every holiday but mostly halloween and christmas. I can't wait to have my own sets! :D I love to have a festive mug with something yummy in it!

I decided to get it. :) I used the "make an offer" button and haggled to $5 plus $7.50 for shipping... not TOO shabby. I know I will be much more careful with it this year!

I have several Christmas mugs that I paid for twice. Our town beautification group had a fund-raiser rummage sale back in May. I found several Christmas mugs that I loved and HAD to have, so I bought them. It turns out, Nancy "donated" (read stole) my mugs to the rummage sale committee. Grrr!
No wonder I loved them so much!
