Getting paddled for Christmas! - Other Crafts

This time it's personal. Every one of us has seen those quaint little rough-hewn decorative paddles hanging around the local plastic polynesian emporium, featuring such catchy and endearing carved phrases like "Spank the Pirate," or "Idol Abuser" (well OK, maybe not exactly like that, but you get the general idea). Anyway, I thought that it was high time to somewhat transform one of these indispensible, yet painfully generic novelties into something with a bit more distiguishing visual impact- And so, I give to you the "Island Submariner," a paddle that obviously relishes the opportunity to take a dip in the salty brine- even if it's only on the rim of a cocktail glass!
