Bummer - years ago, we had a mug handle separate for no reason, MY DD fixed it with glue and it lasted many years (probably at least 10) We had guests over for dinner and he mentioned that he glued that mug over 10 years before. Our guest picked up the mug and the handle came off again. She thought it was a set up - I think it was ESP. Learning experience for cold weather - I won't try tossing cold water in our ceramic cups - maybe in a silicone measuring cup as the temp is flying downhill here as well. We had almost 2 feet of snow in the last week! A2gemini

Hi Marti. Could you post a picture of one of them? Even if you have a small diameter screw hole, you could get a longer screw, like one which is a molybolt put into the sheetrock and then the screw threaded into it. If the color is not to your liking, it is possible to refire in a kiln with another color. Honey, I think it is wonderful that you were so focused at such a tender age to collect 12 of these. If you have a wooden pine old style shelf, which normally has pegs to hold coffee cups, you might find that you could mount these hooks to the shelf back board with a skinny bolt with a flat nut on the back, and then hang the shelf on the wall. Oh yeah, get a rubber washer for the ceramic hole, to keep the pressure off it. Like Neoprene.

Thank you - and I agree, not enough galley kitchens are shown on Houzz. My husband bakes scones every week - he spoils me. Between the peninsula top and the area to the left of the sink, we have plenty of room for baking and meal-making. We used to have large family gatherings and having enough space and countertop area were never a problem. We just couldn't have more than two people working in the kitchen at the same time. which is what I prefer, anyway. I wish I had had my 30" oven back then instead of the 27" one that came with the house. My sister liked our galley kitchen and how it functions so well, that she transformed her square kitchen into a galley. The coffee and tea cabinets that come down to the countertop are perfect for our uses. I don't miss the counter space that had been there and can still use the toaster and butter the toast on the tea side. On the coffee side, next to the cooktop, we keep condiments that are used frequently - salt, pepper, olive oil, etc. When cooking there is plenty of space for the utensils we need - and keep in a lower pull-out cabinet. I forgot to include a photo of the shelved, closet-like pantry which is to the left of the refrigerator. Without that, there wouldn't be enough storage. The ONLY thing I would do differently is have round legs on the end of the peninsula. We have banged our knees too many times on the square edges of the legs!
