9. Blanks for Accessories: Mugs and Hats

Part 5 • Recommended Blanks for Quality and Margin

The same principles apply to non-apparel items. For mugs, the standard 11oz White Ceramic Mug is a can't-miss best-seller. It's a universally understood product with a great surface for printing vibrant designs. For hats, the unstructured "dad hat" is a very popular and versatile choice for creator brands. Look for blanks with a high number of positive reviews and a competitive price point. Since these are often impulse buys, keeping the base cost low to allow for an affordable retail price is a good strategy.
