Oh lordy, I'm in the martini family and this would be PERFECT. If only I knew how to make that little martini thing on the top... I'm awful with all crafts.

I would say draw it out and have a fraternity man cut it for you.

That's a Margarita, martinis look like this:



Margaritas will almost always have something on the rim (most often salt and a lemon or lime), REAL martinis will have a lemon twist, coctail onion or olive actually IN the drink.

For what it's worth, a martini glass should be easier to cut out than a marg glass.

Thanks, that does look quite a bit easier to cut!

Happy to help. You won't have to cut out the little lime, either - but maybe paint an olive, twist, or onion in the glass, if that's something you want to do. I suppose it depends on whether or not your family actually drinks martinis, and whether they like vodka or gin.

I'm pretty sure I'm over-thinking this - and I prefer a margarita to a martini any day.

Haha, yeah, it's a Margarita glass, because I'm in the Margarita Family.

And, we have Greek Stores that will do the custom cutting for us - so its a lot easier.

Now that I've shared the one I made for my Big, I'd like to share the two I received from my amazing Littles this past year!!



Wall-E Paddle!



You can't see the bottom, but the idea behind it is that its a heart-shaped Margarita glass!
