Every Photo Mug Begins With Your Favourite Memory
Ordering a personalised photo mug should be simple, but creating a beautiful finished product takes more than simply pressing print.
From the moment you upload your photo to the day your mug arrives, every order follows the same careful process. We personally prepare every design, send you a proof for approval and only print once you're happy with the result.
Step 1 – Upload Your Photos
Choose the layout that best suits your design, then upload your photo or photos directly from your phone, tablet or computer.
Whether you're creating a mug with a single favourite photograph, a photo collage or a personalised message, we'll securely receive your files ready for preparation.
Top Tip: Upload the highest quality version of your photo whenever possible for the best printed result.
Step 2 – We Carefully Prepare Your Design
Unlike many online photo mug services, we don't simply print whatever is uploaded.
Every order is individually reviewed by a real person before production begins.
Depending on your photograph, we may:
- Adjust the crop to improve the composition.
- Reposition the image so important details aren't hidden by the mug handle.
- Optimise the layout for the printable area.
- Make sensible brightness adjustments where appropriate.
- Check the overall suitability of the image for printing.
If we think another photograph would produce a noticeably better result, we'll contact you before printing.
Step 3 – Receive Your Design Proof
Once your design has been prepared, we'll email you a proof showing how your personalised mug will look before it's printed.
This gives you the opportunity to check:
- Your photographs
- Any personalised text
- Spelling
- Dates
- Overall layout
Nothing goes to print until you've approved your proof.
Step 4 – We Print Your Mug
After approval, your design moves into production.
Your mug is professionally printed using dye-sublimation onto premium ceramic mugs, producing vibrant colours and a durable finish suitable for everyday use.
Every mug is individually checked before packaging.
Step 5 – Carefully Packed & Dispatched
Your finished mug is carefully packaged to help protect it during delivery.
Once dispatched, you'll receive confirmation along with any available tracking information so you can follow your order to your door.
Why We Include A Design Proof
Many personalised products are printed automatically immediately after upload.
We prefer to do things differently.
Sending a proof means you can check exactly how your mug will look before production begins, giving you confidence that the finished product matches your expectations.
It's one extra step that helps avoid disappointment and ensures you're happy with your order.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I request changes to my proof?
Yes. If you'd like a reasonable adjustment to the layout, crop or positioning, simply let us know before approving your design.
Will you improve my photo?
Where appropriate, we'll make sensible adjustments to help your photograph print well. If we don't believe a photo will produce a good result, we'll explain why and, where possible, recommend a better alternative.
How long does the process take?
We'll prepare your design and send your proof as quickly as possible. Once approved, we'll professionally print, package and dispatch your mug from the UK.
