Stylish and cool are two words that define you perfectly.  Always seen at the hippest spots, you bring to mind trendy nightclubs and suave resorts…only the best quality for you.  You require maintenance, but it is worth it to see you shine!

Mostly B’s:You are A Glass Window

You are the most traditional type of glass, and the most useful!  You enjoy sticking to things you know, but are never bored.  You always do things efficiently and effectively.  People enjoy being around you because even though you might have a very conventional outside, you are never short on things to do!

Mostly C’s:You are Blown Glass

Artistic and delicate, that’s you!  You love beautiful creations and art of any kind!  You are sometimes hard to please, but the final creation is worth the tough process.  Your creativity and imaginative nature make you fun to be around, though people have to be careful sometimes about what they say and do around you, your emotions can be delicate!

You are the rarest type of glass and are very spontaneous!  You are literally a lightening bolt, and you do whatever takes your fancy at the moment.  You definitely aren’t like other people, and while not overly elegant on the outside, people love to be around you because of your unpredictable and unique nature.

Mostly E’s:You are Stained Glass

You are a “thing of the past” in the best sense of the phrase.  You love all things vintage and long to go back to the elegance of the olden days.  You love things that are ornate in detail but overall beautifully simple.  While you aren’t rare, you are different from everyone else and unique in your own beautiful way!
