LOL, Why Yes Nella!  Always use the best glue to get those humans to 
stick!!!  If you glue the mug to your hand, you will always know it is YOUR 
mug and no one else's!  Geesh, just trying to solve the problem here.  *I 
needed this good laugh today!

Cindy:

Your message says it is a good glue if you are gluing "someone" on the mugs!
Lol

Gluing the mug to yourself would be a very good way to keep up with it. lol

Sorry, I'm easily entertained.

E600 is a great glue if you are gluing someone on the mugs.  An idea might 
be different shaped buttons or beads like rhinestones.

I would not use it by itself to "puff" up so you can feel it.  It is not 
that type of glue.

You might consider using Puff Paint.  It come in a tube and you can feel it 
once it dries.  Simple things you could do would be a circle on one, a 
square on another, a swirly line etc.

If you are still interested in a glue, you might consider E6000. It is good
to use on glass, pottery, etc. I know the pottery shop here uses it &
recommends it. I don't know much more than that, but a quick Google search
might give you the answers you need.

I've seen those, and I think that is along the lines of what Becky is
talking about. Thanks much for the idea that didn't occur to me.
Appreciate it.

There are "charms" that are used to identify/decorate wine glasses. I do not
know how they attach to the stem of the glass, but maybe putting one on the
handle of your mug.

I have this plastic that could go around the handle of your cup and it snaps
tight in place. I haven't run it through a dishwasher though. Zip tie is
another idea. Maybe the little metal bead things that are like three four
inches long clipped to the handle of the cup. Maybe on that metal beaded
thing you could slide on beads dishwasher safe, so it looks prettier. A tiny
spring like a baby bracelet. A tight-fitting beaded bracelet that goes
inside the handle and around the cup. There are so many tactile cups. Why
reinvent the wheel when your answer is a tactile dog face or pig or candy
cane or sailboat, whatever you enjoy. I have one here with a harness and
handle that is tactile from the Seeing Eye, grin. How about a tactile Miss
Wasit. Bet no one in that church has a Miss wasit from the NFB, grin.

Just some other ideas.

Did you try plastic dyno tape. It might stick better if you place it on the
side of the mug near the bottom.

Hi,

Our church has this thing where everyone has a mug for coffee assigned to
them. Getting "mugged," is a way of extending a warm welcome to people
involved in Bible studies and fellowship.

Our names have been placed on the mugs in permanent marker, which, of
course, does not help us identify our own mugs.

There are several that lookand feel exactly alike, and the engravings are
not tactile enough for distinctions.

I actually took the mugs home, in hopes of being able to affix permanent
glue dots. The strongest glue we have is not lasting through an experimental
wash, and the traditional waterproof glue, such as Goop, is rubbery
intexture and comes off easily.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to best mark the bottomof our mugs that
will not come off in a washing.

I was, at first hoping to use a notch file to make a mark on the bottom
edge, but didn't work either.

I have not mastered super glue, since it is so runny.

The only thing I can think of is bringing our own mugs that are different
from those at church.

Plus, I would like to hear about others' experiences using the crazy glues
or super glues, looking for good nonvisual techniques. I am successful with
thicker glues, such as wood glue, elmers, Goop, etc., but could always learn
more for sure.

Thanks for any ideas!

Judy
