Sweet! And you could put peanuts in it!
Mmmmm....peanuts....
Macadamia nuts would be more fitting I suppose.

Here's a first rough of what my fire-walking mug would look like.
It needs a lot of work, but you can get the gist of it.

I'll second or third that Raffer, and since I can't draw, I guess I can't design a mug so you guys go for it!

I really like that FireWalker Mug design. Bunches. Here's a couple of thoughts I had. First would be a Mai Tai (or libation of your choice) dispenser. The second is a notion for a skull/fez mug. Has that been done before?
Just quick sketches I did during lunch.

Wow nice sketches foamy.
The fez wearing skull is neat-o. I would gladly purchase either one.

I can't believe this post resurfaced after a long year in hiatus. Not that the fire walker mug hasn't been creeping into my thoughts, now and again. You should see how I have it fleshed out in my mind. Much more detail in the head, etc. Some day it will happen, but I just don't have the means yet, unless Holden comes a knockin' on my door.
Thanks for the comps guys.
Nice work Foamy! Put me down for one of each. The decanter idea is especially awesome.
John, is it possible to make mugs out of fused glass? That could be pretty cool,

Whoa foamy - those sketches are beautiful! They're works of art on their own. They'd look good framed as is. Sweet.
The mug designs are killer too

Is it possible to make quarter-round fused glass so that 4 could be attached together to make the sides of a mug? Or how about a fused glass insert into an otherwise plain mug? And there a re examples of square or triangular mugs out there.

Raffer, I think the firewalker would make a Super mug. The more I look at it the more it is "There".
Actually everyone came up with some Very COOL Designs. Everyone but Me that is.

I just realized why I like the Firewalker mug design so much. It reminds me of the characters from "Where the Wild Things Are" by Maurice Sendak.
