So our martini party on Saturday was a success. We had over 35 people show up at our apt and I turned into 'mix master Tara' with my martini shaker, making sour apple martinis, cremsicle ones with tang around the rim, cranberry lemon, clear chocolate vanilla and blue raspberry cognac martinis. Our living room turned into a dance floor as the night went on.
Here are the before shots:
We supplied the shrimp cocktail and the liquor, but had asked everyone to donate a martini glass since we only had two. We now have 18 martini gasses and two margarita ones. Some have olives embedded in it, a blue prism bottom and another that's black and white like a tuxedo.
Since I had a few plain glasses now, I took out my bag of nail polish and jabbed dots on the outside of the glasses. It looks very Valentine's day but festive. Take a look:
