I bought this industrial Igloo cooler at a yard sale for $4. I need ideas on how to tikify it. It needs to be semi durable. The plan is to fill it with mai tais or other tiki drink and take it to events (Tiki Trailer Trash Rally, scooter rallies, etc.) I may even have my friend make a cart for it so we can push it around or attach it to a bicycle and pull it.

I was thinking of using the spray paint for plastic and making it look like a tiki. Any and all other ideas are welcome! I want to get to work on Project Mai Tai!

And any ideas about the broken cup dispenser? Can I get a new one or put another kind on there? Or just remove it and put washers behind the screws and reinsert the screws? What about mending the crack by the handle-what can be used there? I have tested the integrity of the cooler-it holds water just fine and the spout works.

I need all you artists out there to throw out some ideas!

Mahalo!
