Over the course of my time in college, I've accumulated quite the staggering number of coffee mugs. Whether it's because of friends gifting them to you, your impulsive need to never walk past Anthropologie without going in, or just because your love for Instagram-worthy beverages — impressive mug collections can definitely be a thing.
Here are 10 signs you may have coffee mug addition:
1. You are running out of shelf space
Your roommates no longer try to complain about your crazy mug collection.
2. You can't walk past a store without thinking of buying one
Because one is never enough.
3. They're an honest representation of yourself
Do you travel the globe in search of all the special Starbucks mugs? Or are your mugs custom made on Etsy? There are so many possibilities!
4. You use them for everything
Need a pot for your plant? A bowl for your mac in cheese? A pencil holder? Or all of the above?
5. You need them for ascetically pleasing study photos
Because the mug is always part of the hustle.
6. You schedule coffee/tea dates at your place
Because why spend the money to go out when you have everything you need at home?
7. You're either a tea connoisseur or wannabe barista
You know exactly how to find that perfect blend for the perfect mug.
8. You always ask your friends if you can go paint mugs together
A valid excuse to get together with friends, show off your painting skills and get another mug out of it while you're at it.
9. No one ever knows what you are drinking
If it's after Wednesday, it's probably not coffee.
10. You have one for every day of the week
No matter what you're feeling, you have a mug to fit every mood and every situation.
