Tiki-bot, I would recommend getting a how-to-mosaic type of book. They offer good information in a very organized way. I borrowed one, but I can't remember it's title. When I track it down I'll let you know. We used art glass from stained glass stores which can be a bit pricey, however they usually have a box of remnants that you can purchase by the pound. Ceramic tiles are good as well. They're cheaper and can be easier to find depending on your area. Check with bath and kitchen design stores for leftovers from remodelling jobs.

I'd love to see stained glass tikis waikiki tiki! I kept fantasizing about them when we were in the glass shops. Of course, I fantasize about turning everything I see into tiki.

I checked with Mark (Mr. Cheeky Half) and he's cool about putting the mosaics up in the gallery so we'll get them up there soon.

Thanks for all the interest,
cheeky half
