How your Cup & Saucer is Made

Design your own cup and saucer, leave the rest to us. We expertly print your unique design onto the bone china cup using a specialist digital printing technique. The inks fuse with the material creating a print that won't peel away or scratch off over time. The set is supplied with an all-over-printed saucer. The china reflect the light nicely so there's a subtle shine, creating a gloss finish. Your saucer has an indent that the cup fits perfectly into, ensuring it can be carried safely without sliding around.



Care Instructions

Please do not put in the dishwasher. Wash by hand to preserve the life of the print.

  • Dishwasher Safe
  • Hand Wash

Design Tips

Your design wraps around the body of the cup, covering the full height and ending close to the handle for a clean, elegant finish. There is approximately an 8-10mm gap between each side of the cup print and the handle. If you have a small image, logo or monogram, we suggest scaling this down and placing it at the front of the cup instead of stretching it to fit the width. This could distort the image and ruin the quality. While we make every step to offer precise printing, we cannot guarantee that your design will be perfectly centerd. With this in mind, a repeat pattern may work best. Landscape images naturally work well, however, you can design your own cup in a variety of creative ways. For designs that have a large white background area, please ensure this is brilliant white and not an off-white to guarantee the best possible print. 

Design your own cup using vintage floral designs for an elegant addition to brunch. The classic style also lends itself well to weddings, backyard parties, and tea parties. If you host a lot of events, plan weddings or just enjoy a spot of tea in the sunshine, make your own cup & saucer sets to set the scene and create a unique experience. Monogram designs put a stylish spin on these traditional style cups, so make your own cup featuring quirky lettering or typography. 

As we hand-make our items, slight deviations are possible when centering your logo. Therefore we would recommend repeating your logo with our design tool.

Frequently asked questions:

Can I print on the saucer too?

Yes, you can. When you design your own cup you can also design your own saucer too. The saucers are made from the same high-quality bone china and are printed all over.

What type of image work best?

Because your design wraps around the body of the cup, we suggest something that is landscape in orientation so your image isn't stretched. Please note that there is an 8-10mm gap between each end of the print and the handle.

How do I position my logo at the front in the center?

In the design interface, you'll have a rectangle to customize with your design, so position your motif in the center and always check the preview. You can see any changes that you make in real-time.

Print Guideline

  • DPI-Print Guideline Icon

    What's the best resolution to print in?

    We print at 200dpi, which is a good combination of quality and file weight. Ideally your image should be scaled to 100% at 200dpi, this means that no resizing of your file occurs stopping any interpolation.

  • Jpeg-Tiff Print Guideline Icon

    Should I save my file as a TIFF or JPEG?

    For multi-colored or very detailed files we recommend using a tiff format, but they must be flattened. For simple colours and low detail files, a jpeg is fine.

  • RGB-CMYK Print Guideline Icon

    Which color model should I choose? RGB or CMYK?

    We advise providing images in the RGB color space. Specifically using the sRGB image profile, to achieve best color results. What does this mean? In your editing software, choose RGB as the working space and assign the image profile as sRGB (full name sRGB IEC61966-2.1)

  • GSM ICON

    What does GSM mean?

    Grams per Square Meter (GSM) is an international standard for measuring the weight of paper or fabric. GSM uses the weight of a square meter (1000 x 1000mm) as an indication of the weight and thickness of a given fabric. We class 20-100gsm as light (summer fabrics, gauzes and fine silks), 101-249 gsm as medium (most clothing fabrics) and 250+ gsm as heavy (upholstery fabrics, and other specialist fabrics).

  • Fill Bleed Areas ICON

    What are bleed areas?

    When designing your product, it’s best to make sure that your image is slightly larger than needed. In printing, the extra printed image is referred to as a “Bleed Area” or margin, and it is removed from the finished piece. A bleed area acts as a buffer for slight inconsistencies in the manufacturing process. however, it’s important to fill your bleed areas completely, or you may end up with white, unprinted strips along the edge of your finished product.

  • Transfer-Print Guideline Icon

    Do you print on garments a customer supplies?

    Unfortunately not. All our garments are printed on flat fabric, and sewn into finished products, which gives a better finished result and all-over print. We test meticulously so that we know what gets best results on our fabrics, and our facilities cater perfectly to them. We do however print sublimation paper to order, so if you have access to a heat press you can press your fabrics or flat garments easily.

  • Pattern Alignment Across Seams ICON

    Can you Align a Pattern or design across panels of a garment?

    We always strive for the greatest accuracy when printing and constructing your garments. However, due to unavoidable stretch or movement of the fabric during the stitching process, we cannot guarantee perfect pattern registration across garment seams. We are generally accurate within 0.08" 0.12", which Is close enough for most patterns, but may show slight issues with detailed geometric patterns.

  • print label option icon

    Can I print my own Labels?

    Most of our garments now come with printable label space for you to add your own company information and branding! If you would like to sew in your own labels, we also offer Printed Fabric Labels here.

  • Eco friendly Printing

    How is your fabric printing eco-friendly?

    With environmental consciousness in mind, our fabrics are all printed using completely water based inks. This means no chemicals or solvents are used. Our heat fixing procedure fixes the colors and prints, avoiding the downsides of steaming, such as excess or contaminated water returning into the waste system. We have one facility in where we conduct all the printing, production and fulfillment.

Please note: As we make everything by hand, all sizes may vary slightly.
