CY thank you so much. I missed your message and just saw it today. I've been watching you on fb, I hope you see my "likes".

JenTiki great. It's so heavy that if it sticks out it will not fall off the shelf.

=================

The Wish List continues with the progress on the Hot Tub Hula Girls.

I ran out of table tops so we went and bought another table. Dan was sad to see another room get so messy but he is very understanding.

We have been casting since last October. I brought in all the hula girls from the garage.

I set up my work mess and got busy.

Dan and I later carried in all the coconuts from the garage.

I figured out that making one a day wouldn't work out that I needed to stream line my work. So off with the mold lines.

Carved the bottoms with all the information.

Smoothed the carving with a wet brush.

A few days later I moved the hula girls to the kitchen and put the coconuts on the new table. I have 22 coconut bottoms done. I have orders for 24 so we started casting again.

The last of the custom pieces are still drying so I can't yet sand and fire those.
My tiki factory is going to be covering all the house when all our family comes for Christmas. We did not by anything for the kids that can be thrown or flies.

Happy Holidays, Wendy
