    Exclamation What Color should our B & B Shaving Mug be?

    "To be, or not to be, that is the question" William Shakespeare

    Dear Members:
    If you do comission John to make our shaving mug...what color shall it be: Blue, Black, White or Red?

    I believe in the interests of feasibility and simplicity (at least starting out the gate), we should agree by Poll what dominate color our mug should be and maybe later John can diversify into offering other color formats.

    Blue would be the logical choice, but people always freak out about matching their decor, so that color is probably out.

    Any color other than white ... so that lather will be more visible in contrast against the background of the mug.

    Voted black but it would be nice if we had the option of purchasing it in other colors.

    It should resemble the Old Spice mug.

    Bingo.

    While I agree that blue would be more "natural" for the forum, black or white will not clash with anyone's decor.

    Personally, blue works for my decor

    Blue or black would work for me. Blue seems to be more fitting for the B&B motif.
