We try terribly hard to be organised, but almost every wedding we go to, we tend to leave looking at the wedding gift list until the day before. So the happy couple have to make do with whatever is left. Usually a sorry looking hand towel and miscellaneous cutlery, or something awfully expensive. 5 star wedding suggest our couple of mugs, which might not be on the list, but they are sure not to be forgotten.

Usually in January you have to exercise a little restraint after the indulgence of December, but it doesn’t mean you can’t treat yourself to a little bit of what you like. And what better excuse than our January sale?

Our sale has a variety of lovely collections, that you might not be able to get your hands on again. Some are bits that we’ll now stop making, and some we stopped making a little while ago, so it’s a super chance to pick up some real old gems. We’ll also be selling a few of our factory seconds.

Were you hoping to complete your Cornishware collection this Christmas? Did you get a new tea towel instead of the pudding bowl you asked for? Will you have to make do with your cracked white teapot because your daughter decided that you needed a new pair of socks? Join us on Twitter for your chance to win the pressies that you asked for, but didn’t quite make it under the tree. All you need to do is tweet us a link to the piece of Cornishware that you were after, and we’ll pick a winner every week in January!

Just a quick one to say if you’re ordering anything for Crimbo, make sure that you pop your order in before the 20^th of December. And if you want to order anything personalised (perhaps a couple of mugs?), you’d better get your skates on as last orders are on the 16th.

If you’re hoping to receive some Cornishware yourself, we suggest that you keep this page open for a loved one to stumble across!

Are you forever coming across our glorious Cornishware stripes? Sometimes we’re in cookbooks, sometimes we’re in tearooms,and sometimes celebrity chefs whip up delicious meals with our help. If you’re good at spotting Cornishware, join us on Twitter  and you could win two of our super red mugs! http://twitter.com/#!/cornishware

We’re always jolly pleased to hear from fans of Cornishware. We know that some of you have been collecting for years, and your knowledge of our ranges through the decades is really rather outstanding. We were delighted to receive these letters from two of our customers, Carole and Annie.

Thank you so much for quick delivery! Fab goods, really lovely! Am a collector of similar, but this was for a present, perfect! Thanks again, Annie

Exciting news! We’ve decided to launch a new range of personalised mugs for two this christmas which we’re calling “a couple of mugs”.

Think of the great couples you could join and be immortalised in ceramics with. From Posh and Becs to Kate and Wills now its your turn.

They’ll be just £25 in either blue or red and make the perfect pressie for any couple this chrimbo.

They’ll be online in the first week of November.

We’ve just heard some very exciting news. The lovely people at The Dieline (the most visited packaging website in the world!) have given us a design award for the packaging for our boys’ and girls’ mug sets.

We came second in the Home, Garden and Pets category, and we have to say, we’re chuffed to bits!

We’re not going to get all Hollywood and launch into a teary 20-minute award speech, but we would like to raise a glass to our partners over at Big Fish, who designed the handsome stripy packaging. Hats off to them!

The mugs themselves were inspired by the colours of faded seaside bunting and some vintage English croquet balls. And, if you like the look of them, you can pick up a set here.
