31 DAYS OF COFFEE MUGS: Classic Blue Color of the Year Mugs (2020)

Pantone Color Institute's color of the year for 2020 is Classic Blue. Classic blue, according to Pantone “instills calm, confidence and connection.” It is a solid and dependable blue, something that we need more than ever in 2020. Pantone calls the color number 19-4052. Due to differences between the images seen on my computer and the real item, please do not expect that the color on the mugs will be an exact match to Pantone's classic blue (as shown in the border on the image above) but do expect to find a lot of similar blue mugs.

Today's post, number seven on my latest 31 DAYS OF COFFEE MUGS series, is dedicated to ten handsome classic blue coffee mugs. 

ART POTTERY MUG

I opened this page with a lovely handmade art pottery coffee mug direct from the artisan’s pottery wheel and Etsy. Bleu Marie Pottery and her classic blue mugs can be found on Etsy by clicking here.

CORNISHWARE MUG

Next up I'll share this handsome white and blue Cornishware mug, which can be found as a single or a as a set on eBay by clicking right here.  I like the vintage styling though this is a new mug, not a vintage one.

STARBUCKS MUGS

Starbucks has a bunch of interesting coffee mugs, new and used, that incorporate classic blue into them (as shown above) like the fun mosaic blue mug from 2008, the two-tone scaled mug from 2017 and the handsome mermaid-tailed one from 2020. Take your pick by clicking on the link above.

PIER 1 MEDITERRANEAN MUG

If you enjoy patterns, you might choose Pier 1's Mediterranean pattern, which is pretty with all the patterns and designs and the bold, classic blue handle. You will find it here on eBay.

ROYAL NORFOLK MUG

Royal Norfolk's square bottomed, two toned glossy mug is a handsome choice. It is discontinued but available currently on eBay by clicking here.

EMMA BRIDGEWATER MUG

Emma Bridgewater has a host of mugs available with classic blue on them, like the ever-popular love themed mug and the bird themed one shown here. See what an eBay search for Emma Bridgewater blue mugs turns up right now by clicking here.

SNOW WHITE MUG

Finally, I'll throw in this fun Disney mug. It is stunning with a glossy opalescent finish and a color that matches Pantone's classic blue color very well. It is a truly a handsome choice for someone who loves Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. It is not widely available but I do have one in my eBay store right now. Click here to find it in my eBay store.

A mug is a very affordable way to add a bit of this year's color to your home décor! Which blue mug is your favorite?

31 DAYS OF COFFEE MUGS: Marsala Red Color of the Year (2015) Coffee Mugs

According to the color experts at the Pantone Color Institute, the color of the year for 2015 is marsala.

Marsala is a reddish-brown colour that Pantone calls “a smooth, rich, earthy wine tone” inspired by the a city called Marsala in Sicily, Italy.

I think that adding accents of marsala would be a great way to add a bit of this fashionable, warm colour to your home décor without adding too much of a strong colour.

Here's a peek at the sample from Pantone. Marsala is colour number 18-1438.

Panatone says, "Nurturing and fulfilling, Marsala is a natural fit for the kitchen and dining room – making it ideal for tabletop, small appliances and linens throughout the home."  I like it though I realize it is not for everyone.  It is exactly the hit of red that I might choose to add if I were redecorating my family room or kitchen.

Today's post, number 27 in my 31 DAYS OF COFFEE MUGS, is therefore dedicated to a few lovely marsala-colored coffee mugs. Because I do not actually own all of these mugs, I am relying on the color representation delivered to me online. I hope that these colors are true in real life. Please let me know if you experience anything otherwise.

At the top of this page, I've shared a pair of Starbucks' Stacking coffee mugs. Starbucks calls the color mulberry but I think that it is a fine stand in as a marsala-colored mug. It is a 2013 mug that is now discontinued. You will likely be able to find them here on eBay.

Pfaltzgraff's Everyday Calico Mug, with a checkered  shown above, is of varied colors, including a reddish brown marsala. Now apparently discontinued, you can turn to eBay to find it by clicking right here.

Then there is Burton & Burton's inspirational Marsala Dad themed mug. It's a handsome choice, perfect for Father's Day and dad's birthday. You can find it on Amazon here.
