Buzzy Out!

Buzzy knows I like to make smoke & fire out in the desert.

Thanks for all the nice comments everyone. Everyone was very appreciative at Mojave which made all the effort to put it together well worth it.

I only made the cactus tikis. Papermache projects are very forgiving. If you make a mistake or don't like the way it looks you just remove it and try again.

The cost of supplies is about $30. Don't buy spray paint. I made the mistake of buying some different green shades but did not like the look. The 99 cent craft paint worked much better and of course is much more economical.

I purchased the Moai statues from Benson's Imports in Huntington Beach, CA. They are a molded plastic and do not have a back to them. I use them in my backyard near the pool. I think they are way over priced at $85 each. Shipping might be high due to their size. I was able to go to their warehouse.

Here is their website.
