How long have you been collecting these items?

I have been collecting shot glasses for about 7 years.

Give us a little background on your collection

Mostly my shot glasses are from cities around the United States. Some are very colorful and have printing on them that represent well-known landmarks from that particular city.

How did you develop an interest in this particular collection?

I always thought that shot glasses were cute and just fun. So once I was visiting my grandmother in Orlando, I saw a nice colorful shot glass and decided to purchase one for a friend.

What approach did you take in starting this particular collection?

I bought a Florida shot glass for a friend and liked it so much, I ended up keeping it! Then whenever I traveled I started picking up new ones. I have even received them as gifts from friends since they know that I collect them.

What are your favorite specialty items in your collection?

My favorites are the tall slender shot glasses. I especially like the one from Planet Hollywood in Paris that a friend brought back for me. And I really like the Playboy one because the bunny is outlined in shiny crystals.

What other collections or hobbies do you have?

I'm starting a African and Asian mask collection. I will definitely display it once I get enough pieces together.

How do you choose what type of glass you want to add to your collection.

I usually choose the ones that appeal to my eyes. I like the ones that are simple, or frosted. But at the same time I do like some of the more colorful designs.

Do you plan to continue collecting these glasses and how do you keep the collection interesting.

One thing I would like to start collecting is all the U.S. cities' football team shot glasses. Since I love football I might as well combine the two! I was recently in Cleveland, Ohio and purchased a Cleveland Browns shot glass to get me started.
