Hey, Bodhi Boy here, just wanting to tap into the great Cosmic Tiki Vibe before heading out to Tiki Oasis 6.
This will be my third time there as a vendor. Many of you have bought my flameworked glass Tiki Beads either at Tiki Oasis, or from my eBay auctions. This year I'm trying to expand my line a bit, and have made these new glass castings:

I have long loved the suffering or hangover tiki, and have made several beads of that image, but I always wanted to do a casting where it looked like the tiki was trapped in the bottle. These are about 9 1/2 to 9 3/4 inches tall and weigh about 2 1/2 pounds each (they're extra heavy 'cause they're cast with Gaffer Glass from New Zealand, which has a high lead content, like crystal.)
They look fantastic backlit on a bar shelf next to real bottles of hooch.
I'm flying in hauling a lot of stuff from a very cold and un-Tiki part of the country in upstate New York. I'll be trying to finish a pile of other new products in the next few days before heading out San Diego way (ah warmth! Sun!) If I have the time I'll try to show off a few more items for sale before leaving for TO6.

You can always check out samples of my beads on my website: http://www.bodhiglass.com where you'll find links to my eBay auctions. The text on the site is acting funky, but the pictures and links are just fine.

Thanks for looking, feedback is always appreciated.

yer pal,
Bodhi Boy
