Disney's Polynesian Village Resort Tiki Mug Tall In Dark Copper Verdigris Green
aka. Disney's Polynesian Village Resort Tiki Mug Tall Fifth Edition
Kintsugi, the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with lacquer dusted or mixed with powdered gold (or in my case, gold colored mica). This was practice for a nicer mug that didn't make it through the USPS system. It's bit messy, next time I'll use less glue. Also, I quickly learned not to try to save the tiny pieces, my fat fingers get in the way.
