Caribou Coffee Ornament 2007 Newly Found

After last Christmas, I was on my quest to compile a list of Caribou Coffee ornaments and all through my search there was only 1 photo of this little mug.  I had reached out to the photo owner to see if there was a date, but did not receive any response. So I just hung onto the photo til maybe it showed up somewhere. Low and behold one popped up on Ebay.

So you can imagine my joy and excitement when someone posted listed one. I bought it that week as I had to have it. So here it is…..

2007 Cup-O-Cheer with Orange Ornament

How cute is this…I love beach tones too. This has an orange and red ornament with an off set white outline.  Then the Caribou Coffee logo on the back with the year 2007.

This actually helped with all the mugs I see listed on ebay with this ornament design and no one seems to know the year.  So if you are looking through Ebay and see the below mug’s, they are from 2007.

Here are a few from Listings I found

2007 Teal Multi Orn Mug  Red 2007 Mug   2007 Teal Single Orn Mug

Peet’s Coffee Ornament 2014

First let me assure you, that you did not miss a 2013 Ornament.  According to Peet’s representative they DID NOT release on that year.  They do not know why they didn’t.

I think Peet’s has excelled in the quality this past Christmas. The 2014 Cup is gorgeous. Very ornate in it’s theme and colors.

2014 Holiday To Go Cup 

Peet’s did the fantastic job selecting a great scenic detail on this year’s cup. This little cup is a miniature version of the To Go Cup’s in store for 2014. This adorable little ornament is a little smaller then the previous year’s, but is decorated to the max with tree’s, birds and snowflakes.

2014

This has concluded the short list of Peet’s Ornament’s.  Stay tuned to this Holiday season for what they release for 2015

Peet’s Coffee Ornaments 2011 & 2012

Peet’s went back to a single ornament each year. I was hoping they would continue to increase the amount of ornaments each year, but no such luck.

So let’s see what Peet’s has for us in 2011 & 2012…

2011 Red Holiday Dove Mug

This was a miniature version of the Holiday mug they sold that year. It’s solid red, with a blue dove on one side and white Peet’s logo on the other, hung with white ribbon. I love this ornament and Ginny at Caribou sent me one they had laying around in the office.

2012 Ceramic Hand To Go Cup

This year Peet’s released a white To Go Cup with swirl hand prints in teal with a teal ribbon hanger.  This had the year printed which made it much easier to identify.

Peet’s Coffee Ornaments 2009 & 2010

Peet’s Coffee & Tea began in San Francisco in 1966. They were one of the early introducer’s of dark roasted Arabica coffee.

Peet’s started offering ornaments in 2009. I confirmed this with Peet’s Customer Service Dept. They were so helpful and friendly.  Some of the best Customer Service I’ve had on my whole collecting journey.

So let’s begin on Peet’s Ornament Journey shall we….

2009 South America Stamp Motif Mug

This adorable little mug, was the same as the in store and To Go Cup designs of 2009. This is an Ancient Stamp Motif which depicts a scene with a Dog, Monkey and Star in purple on both sides, with a red ribbon for hanging. This Ancient Stamp is native to South America.  Peet’s is known for using the Ancient Stamp design’s based on locations they obtain their coffee from.

2010 Ceramic Tribal Motif Mug

This year they released 2 ornaments, we got lucky. This was confirmed again by one of Peet’s Buyer’s. This little Ceramic mug is the same as the in store To Go Cups this year.. With a teal tribal stamp boarder along the top and a teal ribbon for hanging

2010 Front2

2010 Felt Holiday Blend Coffee Bag

I love this little coffee bag. Peet’s was onto something this year. I think releasing the bag was a wonderful idea for a Coffee House Ornament.  Don’t you agree that the coffee house’s have so many blends, they should start making ornaments of them. I know I do.

I hope you have enjoyed your time here in Peet’s 2009 & 2010 Ornaments.

Gloria Jean’s Ornament 2012, 2013 & 2014

When I started searching for Gloria Jean’s Coffee Ornament’s I was really unsure if I would even find 1. But I did, and I’m not 100% sure they were ever sold in the USA. I did find more information from Australia blogs and Gloria Jean’s Coffee Australia site.

I contacted Gloria Jean’s Coffee and I did not receive a reply. I really thought I would get great information from them directly. So I was disappointed they did not acknowledge my Coffee House Ornament journey. But that’s alright, I like a good challenge. They did one ornament each year from what I’ve seen. So here we go….

Update: 11/21/2015: **If anyone has an extra one they are looking to get rid of, please contact me, I’d be interested**

2012 Ceramic Holiday To Go Cup

This was the only image online I could find and it was published in 2012, so I am assuming this is the first. It appears to be a ceramic ornament as in the next 2 years. It is a little plain but it is non the less cute with it’s white twinkling stars.


2013 Fair Isle Holiday Dove To Go Cup

How adorable is this ceramic mug. The holiday’s don’t feel complete without Fair Isle flare. Gloria Jean’s did another ceramic mug this year and it the classic red.

2014 Friendship Holiday To Go Cup

This Christmas, the limited edition ornament was colored in red yet again with beautiful script featuring the words “Friendship” and “Celebrate the sharing season”. This festive ornament is the perfect gift for your coffee loving best friend.

2014 GJ Red To Go Cup Ornament

All 3 years they were all packaged in a solid red box shown in 2013’s photo. They all seemed to price at $9.95 each. I’m hoping to get one for 2015 this year and start collecting this brand as well.

Dunkin Donuts Ornaments 2014

So this year’s mix was a pleasant combo. It has a little bit of everything one can love about the holiday’s. So let’s see what 5 styles they gave us this year shall we?

2014 Dunkin Donuts Ball Ornament

Dunkin went with a classic Christmas ball look on this one. I love the pink and white colors. And I especially love the white snowy accents. Dunkin sent me this one when I contacted them about the ornament list.

2014 DD Ball Ornament

2014 Dunkin Donuts To Go Box of Donuts

This ornament is a yummy open box of donuts. Dunkin stayed with the standard box for this ornament. Although I would have liked to seen the Holiday box version on the ornament, this one still makes me smile.  You will find some where the paint job is not the best, so remember to check all images online when bidding or buying.

2014 Ugly Sweater Ornament

This really is an ugly sweater but what an AMAZING Ornament idea. I absolutely love it. A red knit sweater with green knit trim, and embroidered with snowflakes, pines, a Dunkin To Go cup and a snowman head. The green plastic hanger is perfect to hang the sweater on your tree

2014 Ugly Sweater Ornament Loose

2014 Donut Snoman Ornament

This is a mix item ornament, we have a classic coconut donut body, with a coconut munchkin head, and Dunkin colored straws for arms. This Dunkin Snowman is adorned with a black top hat, red and green scarf, and JOY across his tummy. This ornament is hung with a green ribbon and packaged in a clear plastic box

2014 Snowman Ornament

2014 Retro Dunkin Donuts Snowglobe

This ornament is a throw back to the Retro Dinkie Mascot. I love the pink ornament with retro Dinkie inside in his classic pose. It is hard to find one that has the base logo applied correctly. Alot of the times it will be a little tilted but still a great addition to the 2014 collection

2014 Retro DD Snow Globe

This year’s list of 2014 Ornament’s will bring me to end of my Dunkin Donuts post, until the new release of this year’s for 2015. I don’t know about you guys, but I am excited to see what they have in store for us this holiday season.

Happy Hunting Dunkin Lover’s out there!!!

Dunkin Donuts Ornaments 2013

2013’s mix of new and previous year ornaments made me very confused in my searches, and boy a headache to boot.

2013 White Ceramic Mug

How cute is this white ceramic mug with the Dunkin logo and blue satin ribbon.

This is a very rare ornament. I have yet to see anyone want to part with one on Ebay. So this one might be worth paying alittle more for. This came packaged in a clear tube with blue base.

2013 DD Retro Mug Ornament2  2013 DD Retro Mug Ornament

2013 Dunkin Store Snow Globe Ornament

The second in the Snow Globe series is lacking in quality compared to the 2012 style. The new store style set inside the globe displayed in it’s neutral tan, brown and orange tones.

It appears these are hand painted because you will find some online which just look a mess. So be careful when bidding to check all the photos closely and try to get one as neat as possible

2013 Munchkin Box Ornament

This is a plastic molded Munchkin Box that has the America Runs on Dunkin slogan and icons. And Embossed with Dunkin Donuts Logo on the sides with pink ribbon. I wish they would do another Holiday Munchkin Box, finger’s crossed this may be the year 🙂

These were sold as overstock items and put out with the 2013 ornaments in some states

This concludes the 2013 and some previous year ornaments collection.

Dunkin Donuts Ornaments 2011 & 2012

2011 and 2012 were big years for the Ornaments. These are some of the most popular and sought after styles. A lot of them you can find on Ebay, but be careful, some can be very overpriced.

2011 Dunkin Cold Cup Ornament

This cold cup is my DD Favorite.  Made of clear plastic complete with orange straw. One side has Iced Coffee and the other the Dunkin Donuts logo. It has a pink satin ribbon hanger. Packaged in a cardboard open side custom package.

2012 Chocolate Frosted Sprinkle Donut

The yummy shiny Chocolate Sprinkled Donut looks scrumptious. This is a small plastic donut hung with a pink satin ribbon and decorated with red and green sprinkles. Packaged in clear box

2012 Chocolate Frosted Donut loose   2012 Chocolate Frosted Donut2

2012 Strawberry Frosted Sprinkle Donut

Same as the Chocolate but instead has confetti sprinkles and a cardboard open packaging. I’m on a hunt for this one, but so far no such luck. Hopefully some will pop up this fall on Ebay.

2012 Dunkin Store Snow Globe Ornament

This was the first time a Snow Globe was presented as an ornament from any coffee house. I thought this was a great new ornament idea. Inside the globe we have a DD miniature store. Orange top and base with white Dunkin Donuts logo and pink ribbon.

When you buy these online the glue that holds the top hanger on it can detach.  It can easily be re-attached with bonding agent.

This Snow Globe was also sold in 2013 at some locations. If they had many from the previous year they also sold them the following year!

2012 “What Are You Drinkin'” To Go Cup

The catch phrase started in 2012 if I remember correctly. This cute little plastic To Go Cup has a clear package that shows the Dunkin Logo and on the other side the phrase “What Are You Drinkin’?” and completed with the pink ribbon

2012 DD To Go What Are You Drinking2   2012 DD To Go Cup What Are You Drinking

2011 & 2012 were the year’s I think the coffee house ornament craze began. People such as myself, started there collections by this time and started to create a demand.

Dunkin Donuts Ornaments 2008, 2009 & 2010

2008, 2009 & 2010 ornaments have a nice mix of merchandise. They still were keeping with the 1 ornament a year release but in 2010 they offered up two styles when they brought back Dunkin Retro merchandise.

2008 Holiday To Go Cup

This is the Holiday Cup which they served in stores during the Holidays and showcased it in a tiny ornament version. Made of plastic the cup is decorated with the classic Orange and Pink Dunkin Colors.  One side displays the Happy Holidays message while the other side has the America Runs On Dunkin Icons. You’ll notice that the America icon is switched with a Snowflake. The cup also has Dunkin color snowflakes

Dunkin did it once again with the packaging for this ornament. Perfectly Packaged for stocking stuffer gifts

2009 Snowman with Donuts

This snowman was hard for me to find at first, but I am now seeing them pop up on Ebay here and there.  This a heavy little ornament, made of plaster I think. This cute snowman is wearing a pink and orange striped scarf, carrying his favorite holiday box of Dunkin Donuts. This piece is hand painted.

So adorable, When collecting this cute guy try and find one with a good box, and it originally had a clear sticker with black writing on it’s flat backside.

2010 Retro Ceramic Mug Ornament

Finally a Dunkin Donuts mug. The Retro Mug is ceramic so it’s got some weight to it.

This mug was also sold up to 2013 at some locations. If they had many from the previous year they also sold them the following years!

2010 DD Retro Cup2  2010 DD Retro Cup

2010 Retro Pink Donut Box Ornament

The Retro Pink Dunkin Donuts dozen box. Ah the days when they used to pack them on there sides. To me that was always the best way, now we have this huge box to take with us when we leave. Sometimes Retro is still best.

Ok so this ornament is the HEAVIEST ornament to date. This box made from plaster I think is sold with a gold wire ring that the pink string is attached too.  Make sure you hang this one in the heaviest branch you have on your tree.

This Donut Box was also sold up to 2013 at some locations. If they had many from the previous year they also sold them the following years!

Dunkin Donuts Ornaments 2003, 2006 & 2007

2002, 2004, & 2005 have not turned up anywhere in my hunt. I would think they kept up producing the ornament’s each year, so please if any reader’s are more knowledgeable then I, please let me know, I’d love to fill in some holes.

2003 Holiday Munchkin Box

This was the 1st release of the Munchkin Box ornament. The adorable Munchkin box just makes me happy and it’s not all Dunkin Colors which is rare from all the ornaments I’ve come across.

This is a plastic box complete with a winter’s scene and white ribbon.

One the one side there is the Dunkin Donuts Coffee House and leaving is a jolly Munchkin with his scarf and behind him a happy Munchkin making snow angels. The other side has a group of sleigh riding Munchkins having a good ol time passing an Igloo Dunkin Donuts Coffee House.

On the one edge side you have a Skiing Munchkin, and the other edge has a Munchkin making a snowman.

The Munchkin box’s original packaging is a clear box

2006 Ceramic To Go Cup

This to go cup has a lot of quality to it. It’s a tiny little glossy cup, with a pink sateen ribbon and it’s got some weight to it, so hang it on a tough branch if you get one.

The packaging is so cute with pink ribbon around the clear box. Perfect stocking stuffer, I like that Dunkin thought of the wrapping for us.

2007 Frosted Sprinkle Donut Glass Ornaments in Strawberry, Chocolate and Vanilla

In 2007 these were sold individually not as a set. This is a lightweight glass ornament. Each has a frosted front and sprinkle top and when flipped over, it is a classic donut underside. I think they could have done alittle better on the sprinkles though
