I have made many photobooks with Hildreth Ventures Ltd and have always found it an easy and enjoyable process. I always choose gloss paper which seems to add depth to the photos. The end results are stunning, and the book arrives on my doorstep within a few days. Highly recommended.

It depends on the mug you choose. Our simple mug fits one photo, while our themed mugs can include a background and stickers. The hardest part is choosing which photo to use on your custom mug.
What’s the difference between a personalised mug and a photo mug?
A personalised mug is one that has been created specifically for the recipient. It may include their name, their favourite colour and maybe their favourite image or photo.
A photo mug has a printed image on it. It could be a photo of a loved one, their favourite holiday destination or a silly memory that makes them smile every time they think of it. It could even be a piece of artwork they love or their favourite meme.
With Hildreth Ventures Ltd, you can create a personalised photo mug with a caption as well as an image.
What type of photo mug is the right choice for me?
Go minimalist with one of our Simple Mugs or pick a quirky Love Mug with a heart-shaped handle – great for Valentine’s Day and anniversaries.

Personalised photo mugs – Q&A
How do you print on mugs?
During our custom mug printing process your photos are embedded into the ceramic or porcelain through a process known as sublimation that uses heat and special top-quality inks. Imagine a big oven – essentially, your photos are baked into your personalised mugs so they won’t come off.
Do personalised mugs get hot?
When you fill them with a hot liquid, our mugs do start to heat up. Our high-quality printing makes the photos on your personalised mug heat-resistant and the sturdy handle will remain cool so that you can sip your hot beverages safely.
How do Magic Mugs work?
We use a special technique called heat reveal technology, which means the heat of your drink will make your picture appear.
Are your mugs dishwasher and microwave safe?
Our ceramic and porcelain mugs are both dishwasher and microwave safe, except for the silver Mug Coloured Inside. Our Magic Mug is microwave safe but needs to be hand washed.
How many pictures can I put on my mug?
For the Photo Mug and Porcelain China Photo Mug, one photo. For others, up to 18 pictures per mug.
How much tea or coffee can the mug hold?
Our custom made mugs hold up to 285ml – enough for a really satisfying cuppa.
How to personalise a mug
Printed mugs just got a whole lot more personal. Using our online editor you can customise your mug with your favourite photos and add eye-catching designs using our colours and themes. You can even add text to create personalised message mugs (just make sure to select a theme that allows for captions).
