Large Tiki Fork and Spoon Collecting - Collecting Tiki

I decided to carve tikis out of the tiki spoon handle. The top of the spoon with hanging hole was discarded, the top tiki body turned into a moai head, the second tiki body turned into the moai's belly and arms and the lone tiki head at the bottom of the handle was carved into a lono/hei tiki, the top part of the spoon itself was carved into a fishhook and I learned that carving monkeypod with exacto knives is hard.... I then drilled a hole in the back to wall hang and a side hole to wear it as a pendant. To drown sorrow, where should one jump first and best? "Certainly not water.
