Great colors on the mug and it looks real nice, though the logo looks a little too plain imo. Could use some TLC because it looks like it was done in 15 seconds using arial rounded.
Font size could really use a scaling down, but otherwise it looks nice. It just looks like there's no breathing room there, and you want breathing room for a nice relaxing coffee mug :)
@Phil Lester I understand your concern but the idea was to build a system around the new type that would add the personality and brand experience and not try to force anything into the logo type itself. Check the full project and you will get a better idea of this http://dribbble.com/BillSKenney/projects/75021-Ted-Todd
Had a look at the whole project. I think this is an absolutely beautiful and functional brand you've created here. Gorgeous colours and illustration style. I think the simple logo type really works when you see it in context.
As for the mug, I love the big type. It looks great! A beautiful accident.

More branding work being photographed for the new site.
Note: the scale on the mug was an accident and we can't find the make my logo smaller cream, so it is what it is.
Props to @alicjacolon for her camera skills.

@Riki Tanone I agree with you. Someone on the team messed up the scaling in the order. Now the mugs are screaming to the world! :)

I'm forever jealous of your actual photos (all from @alicjacolon I take it).
Things to do...
☑ Buy a bad-ass camera.
☐ Teach my cat to become a bad-ass photographer.

I like the simpleness of the ID, but the kerning concerns me.
