Gary.. is there any way you can paint on a lighter glaze in the inside of the mug?

I have a similar colored mug from you and I use it alot but sometimes, when I'm a little whoozy in the morning, I can't see how much coffee I got in it and its gone over the top.

Oh well.. for us morning joe sleepie heads, dark mugs and black coffee can be a challenge.

I usually like a dark mug inside, and my customers must suffer for MY preference.....
(it is because I am a poor dishwasher, and a dark glaze hides______)

Thats one way of looking at it Gary!

Psst, Gary. Bleach water takes out the stains :-)

Also, Mr. Clean Magic Erasers are good for that too!

Love the green!

Shiny dark glaze!

I would spill my coffee, too, just like Kimberly. Maybe the secret is to pour a little milk or cream into the mug first, and then add the coffee?
