Very nice work, make me remember of a straw, with the colour of the juice we drink :)

My sister would love these, is there any chance of production? They seem cheap enough to make. and you could just reuse the dye you buy.

Those are cool, but even cooler is when the ink leaks out and runs all over your face and clothes and you start crying, wondering--why the hell did I buy ink-filled glasses!
BarryS   10.15.08
okay "BarryS", if you would have read, this is water based ink...not a big deal.
Ronnie   10.15.08
Pretty sure you wouldn't be grinning your arse off if it did leak out, is his point Ronnie. It's still enough to ruin your day.
