Hi friends, I'm super happy with the number of orders I've received. There are only a few hours left and then I'll close Wish List #4. I'll be having so much fun over the next few months sharing photos as I work through these projects. Four people have ordered the same thing, a cannibal bowl. I may need to sculpt these 3 different guys and mold each one. In the end that would work better than hand sculpting each one over and over again.

Today was our last day in Las Vegas. Tomorrow morning we'll sneak out of town early and head home to lots of new tiki projects.

We did pretty well to find fun things to do each day. I hired Michael Jackson to give Dan dancing lessons

but Dan just wasn't into it.

Dan however did want to be King Tut and entertained a few tourists with his royal stance. He request to be called King Rooten Tooten.

My favorite activity is to bomp gophers on the head.

Yes I can see how cute they are

but it's just fun to bomp them. I gave all my winning tickets to a little boy who was waiting for his turn.

I continued working on the cursed bowl.

When I cast it I didn't even think about this big area where the wall would be missing.

However all things clay can be worked with so I built the wall.

Now I had the three islands to work with.

I added two volcanoes and the bases for three tikis.

and the back view.

Picture this. The bowl is filled to the top with a Blue Hawaii drink. As those with long straws sip the volcanoes and the tikis are revealed. When the bowl is almost empty it will show the islands surrounded by blue water. That's what I thought up for the cursed bowl. I hope it will work and not crack. There is still lots more to do.

Thank you for the orders and the visits. Cheers, Wendy
