Hello Tiki Centralites,

I haven't posted a topic lately and decided it was about time. This topic is about a Shave Ice/ Tiki Booth that I had for Aloha Grill's birthday party. This was a super event and many of my friends came by for a special rum laced shave ice concoction. In the foreground of the first attached picture you might recognize Patrick, a tiki legend, enjoying one of my tasty treats. The two super cool owners of this restaraunt decided to let me sell Shave Ice in front of their facilities over the warm summer months. To add to the ambiance of ther facilities I decided to make a Tiki Booth out of mahogony and bamboo. It isn't done yet, I plan on adding some more tikis and leopard print.

In the background you can spot several tikis that I brought along for the festivities. The one in the background is around 9 feet tall and is supposedly going to be featured in Sunset. (I'm holding my breath) My customers were nice enough to let me hold onto their tiki until after this show. (Even though they didn't really have a choice in this matter)

In this second picture you will see several masks. What you can't see are the smoky quartzes that are inlaid into them and the highly glossed marine varnish/polyeurathane finish. People are eating these things up. As a direct result of this show I generated 10 orders for these. Well I wish all of you the best.

Look for more topics under the SC Tiki Shack heading in the near future.

Be safe,
Use Protection,
Will
