Hey guys,
just a quickie. Was hoping you could settle an argument for me!

My mate reckons that mugs and glasses should always be face down in a cupboard but i reckon they should always face up.

Who's right?! Or should I say.....who's the mug?!

i always keep my mugs and glasses facing down.


theres not really a wrong or right way,people just do things differently

hey lady lil!

Hope you're well?

Well I might just tell my friend that they should face up!!! I'm quite stubborn like that! lol

I would have mine facing up

mine all facing down...think this is the correct way to store them ...then no dust can get inside them that way or any we nasties that may be in a cupboard can crawl inside them and do "wee jobs"unseen.....yuk

I prefer them face down too but it's up to each person, whatever suits you, there's really no wrong or right way.

My dad likes to keep his facing down whereas i like mine facing up so when i do his washing-up for him, i can't resist putting them all 'the right way up!' just to wind him up! Seriously though, i think as long as they're clean, who cares how you store them!

Agree with chaddy - Definately down! Don't want to find any bugs in my cuppa!

Sideways ---- I use a mug tree

rofl @ pp So do I pp, I have 2 but the glasses & even more spare mugs are upside down in the cupboard. So is it a 50/50 split or is there a definite "right way" majority?

Face down definately! Donit want to have to rinse them out everytime i want to use them!

Face up (no creeepy crawlies in MY cupboards!!!)

The argument against rim down is that any grime on your cupboard shelf gets transfered to the rim of the mug and that the air inside can go stale and taint the mugs (like leaving an empty tin with the lid on).

Agree to the 'rim' bit, it's face up for me.

face up - i dont know why - germs on the shelf??? i dont know its just me

I always have mine face down as this stops dust etc getting into them.
Happy new year to everyone

I must be honest here, first of all i keep mine standing upright, Inside the cupboards should be immaculately clean therefore no grim to transfer on to rims, and if there is any type of crawlies in the cupboard then there is something badly wrong. I once used a mug tree but after finding a fly in a mug one day the mug tree went in the bin and the mugs went behind closed doors. But there is no right or wrong way its just individual taste.
