you can try decreasing the sharpness!

maybe you could try moving the cup on a side and then get closer to change perspective and DOF.. the blurred background looks great!

What you do is to set polygonal lasso at 30 pixels feathering and check "anti alias", then lasso around the cup.
Select>Inverse
Filter>blur>smart Blur (at default setting, but adjust if necessary)
Select>Deselect - save
