Did you use Shardz or another brand of colored glass for breaking, rather than a light bulb?

If you used one of those glasses made for breaking, please let me know how easy it was to break. Did you have trouble with it like 2dBride? I guess I assumed that the Jewish wedding glass was very thin and made to break easily, but is it really no different than any other stemless wine glass?

The one we had was not a Shardz one.  The Shardz ones are open at one end,  like this:



Ours was closed at both ends,  like this:

yeh ours was a gift from friends (same glass as the pic above) to be made into a mezuzah.  I forget what brand it is.

We wanted to make sure it was super thin.  As strange as the idea is, DH and I got a blue holiday ornament (just plain round) and he broke that.
