Jen, Clarita, Jonesey, Bullet...many thanks! This has actually ended up being the most time-consuming tiki piece I have made since I started posting here. Speaking of that - I noticed I've been on TC a whole year now. 12 months and 30 tikis later...what a ride! I wonder what I would have been doing without all the inspiration I get here?
The necklace is now officially done and strung up ready to go. I ended up making 3 beads before I settled on the one I liked...the others may make an appearance on other necklaces down the track. I kinda dug the monkey-skull vibe of this one...maybe it was cause I was chattin' with TC's favourite monkey boy in Kauai beforehand?
I think the Marq bug is out of my system for the time being....the next few will be quicker more "fun" pieces than intense historical based epics! Look out for a lot of new pieces in the next few weeks...
