Ceramic mug
First, wash it thoroughly with very hot water and let it air dry completely. Next, get some nail polish remover - in case of minor accidents. Then we start with the glue.
The trick is to put a thin coat on both surfaces first and let it dry completely - this will soak in a bit, but will also seal the ceramic from absorbing the glue later on Ceramic mug. And be careful not to get any glue on your fingers, or you'll spread your fingerprints permanently all over the Ceramic mug.
Once it's all completely dry your Ceramic mug, apply some more glue (not too much - you don't want it to squirt out around the edges of the join in a lump) and put the pieces together. Hold Ceramic mug in place accurately (they must be a good fit - no gaps) and tightly until the glue sets up.
Then you can seal the edges of the crack with a thin line of glue - this will keep any dirt, food or stains from penetrating the surface of the join and becoming permanent. Watch out for drips - if you can, keep gently rotating the mug so that drips don't get a chance to form.
Once it's fully set (I usually leave it out overnight to make sure), make sure you wash it thoroughly.
