About Sipfull of Design

Sipfull of Design is a small, family-run studio near Lewes in East Sussex that hand-presses mugs, travel mugs and drinkware. Danni designs and Guy runs the studio side; they started on Etsy in early 2024, launched their own website in August 2025 and say they have since pressed more than 23,000 mugs. In 2026 the studio was named regional winner of Retail & E-Commerce StartUp of the Year at the South East StartUp Awards. Hand-pressing lets it run a design right round the mug, so many of its prints are full-wrap rather than stopping short of the handle.

At The Drivers HQ we sell Sipfull of Design's motoring mugs online with UK-wide delivery. Popular choices include the All Oils Vintage Mug, the Built for Speed Mug and the Old Racing Cars Mug.

Sipfull of Design racing, biker and garage mugs

Racing. The Monaco GP 1930s Mug is a full-wrap collage of pre-war Monaco race posters, with a matching travel mug, and the Monaco GP 70s - 80s Mug and 70s travel mug move on to the Formula One era. The Old Racing Cars Mug celebrates the sports racers of the 1950s and 60s, and the Speed Cars travel mug carries the same retro spirit on the move.

Bikers and Route 66. Built for Speed comes as a mug and a travel mug. The Route 66 designs include Retro Route 66 with its highway signs and licence plates, Route 66 Live to Ride, the US Motorcycle Route 66 Mug and the Motorcycle Route 66 travel mug.

Dad's garage. For the family mechanic there are two Dad's Garage mugs, one with vintage auto repair artwork and one with a mechanic's workshop, plus the Dad's Garage travel mug and Dad Mechanic Garage travel mug. The hot rod versions are the Hot Rod Dad's Garage Mug and Hot Rod Dad Mechanic travel mug.

Looking after them. Sipfull of Design says its ceramic and bone china mugs are dishwasher and microwave safe. The travel mugs are polymer with a removable lid, for hot or cold drinks; wash them by hand and keep them out of the microwave.
