Wendy, thanks for the vote. The Frond is really good but, I would like to present myself as a humble wood carver. [ Edited by Will carve on 2023-07-21 04:32:24 ] |

Dray and WillCarve, killing it. I stained, painted, wire brushed it. Almost ready to go- just need to pad out the back a bit and secure the LEDs and add a hanger. AND, after seeing the photo (this is fully Wendy's technique to inspect her own pieces, which I've completely "borrowed" (stolen), I need to burn or add some paint to the inside of the eye sockets, too.

Tiki Ano it's fun that you remember that's how I find places that need attention. It's really a fun piece especially with the lights. 2 more days!!! |

There's so much good stuff in here. Unfortunately there's no way I'm going to get a piece finished for this due to, well, life. I will thoroughly enjoy watching the swap and will absolutely participate in the next one! |

OK, here's randomized results furnished by Team Picker Wheel. Next step is for you to contact your Swap partner for a shipping address (or possibly an in-person meetup at Tiki Oasis) Please ship out as soon as possible so we can wrap this Swap up with everyone's goodies in their new homes. If you have trouble reaching anyone, let me know. I can contact them via FaceBook or e-mail. GREAT SWAP TIKI FOLKS!!!

MadDogMike this has been another fun swap. I'm so happy that I was ready in time. Joshua is going to come to visit us and we will swap and take photos on that day to post here. I love the after the swap pictures. hang10tiki and Will carve that was a perfect drawing for you two close friends. I've had that happen many times. I've made art for Joshua. See below. We know each other too and now we will meet in person and now we will have his art in the tiki jungle room. He had me make this when the pole was green. Now it's back to it's original color. Cheers everyone and thank you Mike. [ Edited by danlovestikis on 2023-07-23 20:13:40 ] |

Another great Swap- thanks once again to Mike for figuring all of this out - and for reaching out to me since I haven't been on TC much. Would love to do a meet up at T.O.- I live pretty close but will be working off and on long hours (not too far from Town & Country) Saturday and Sunday, but I'm sure I can figure out timing to meet there. Fantastic pieces all around! |

Joshua Bell came all the way from San Francisco to visit a friend, swap our art and to visit the Jungle Bird in Sacramento. A fun filled day for sure. I made replica of the Tiki Bob in San Francisco before it was returned to its original colors. In addition to taking swap photos we too photos of the green Tiki Bob. It visited it's birth place! Dan moved a bowl and he had the perfect location for Joshuas outstanding creation. Thank you, Joshua for the visit and the wonderful tiki totem pole.
