TikiAno oh no, now that bowl is on his wish list! hang10tiki I think GROG is yummy. I missed my spying on Dan until he pointed out my head. GROG you must have lost your head over that ice cream dish. I would like to thank you all for the photoshopped images. Dan enjoys them so much that it makes my day. I love them too. You guys rock. Wendy Hale Tiki great, I'm going to start my part of the story now. I you all have thought we were tiki busy before wait until you see what's been going on behind the scenes. Very soon Hale Tiki will be sharing photos of the biggest and best event of his young life so far. He asked me to help him with one small part. Hale Tiki asked me to make two mugs that he had designed. The mugs were very special because they would be used to toast a special event he had planned at this years Hukilau. I'm going to show the step by steps that these mugs took to pull off. My hope is that you will enjoy seeing how Hale Tikis mind works. These were his designs and done with my hands. First up the instructions for his mug. The bottom of the mug is to be like this vintage mug. The top of the mug should be the Tiki Central Tapa like I did on ebTikis mug. A tiki face should be on the front. He wanted this headdress and eyes but glazed in this way. He wanted this chin design and the tongue but glazed in this way. I printed all these photos and cut them up. I taped them together to make a picture of what the mug should look like. He went though all the glazes on line and came up with a list and then he drew the mug and labeled where each glaze should be used. Of course I didn't own a single glaze but I was able to locate every one of them at Alpha. Would I be able to make his wish come true? Stay tuned tomorrow I'll start showing you the mug he wanted made for his special lady. The Wish Lists are always a fun challenge. Cheers, Wendy [ Edited by: danlovestikis 2013-06-24 14:48 ] [ Edited by: danlovestikis 2013-06-24 14:51 ]
