Is there any way to fix a crack in a glazed mug so I can use it? It is cracked all the way through so it leaks. Is there anything that I could fill it with that would be okay to drink from after? Thanks!!

You could use one of the epoxy resin (2 part) glues, or one of the purpose made cements for ceramic.
On the other hand, support your local potter-buy another mug:)

Let me know how you get on - we have one I'd like to fix rather than replace, too! :)

I'm not sure that there would be anything thats 'food safe' to seal it with, sounds as if its well and truly broken to me if its got a crack all the way through, although I may be wrong - not heard of anything that can repair full cracks in ceramics but I'd like to know if there is! :)
