She decided on one of the most popular coffee mug styles, the Slimline<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span>and needed a rainbow of colors for<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>this truly special event. We agreed to make four different, stunning color combinations.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The finished mugs were given to some 300 plus attendees. Anna wrote,\u201dEveryone Loved them,\u201d and<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>\u201cThank you so much for the mugs! They were a huge hit at our event!! People won&#8217;t stop talking about them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Later that fall, Anna contacted us again, this time for another batch of mugs in one of our new styles, the Bistro; in colors that matched Ko Jo Kai&#8217;s Club Colors, Brown &amp; Beige.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>This was for their Homecoming and<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>they were looking for customized<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span>keepsakes for students and alumni Ko Jo Kai.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Not resting on our laurels, our artisans crafted the new custom coffee mug with their normal attention to detail and care.\u00a0Again, Anna said \u201cEveryone loved the Mugs! Every single one of them got taken! So pleased with them.I have been so impressed with y&#8217;all&#8217;s work! I am still getting compliments about them.
