Aloha all...please help! Instead of replacing costly cabinetry in our Airstream, I'm thinking of simply embellishing the facades with flat carvings...can someone direct me to a site/artist? These tikis need to be fairly lightweight and only 10-ish inches tall; I need at least 4, but would love 8 in different varieties depending on the dinero. Is this too much to ask?? :) Mahalo!! |

If you can find some cheap ones that are mass-produced but a little too heavy and you have access to a router, you could always 'rout-out' the back side of the carving. Think of the concept how some people pull some of the bun out so that their hot dog sinks in a little (stop thinking bad thoughts-folks). Does this make any sense? |

You may want to check out BambooBen. He builds Awesome bars and all kinds of stuf tiki. He usually embellishes his cabinetry with tikis Just as you were trying to explain. Here is a link to his post |

Hey Ben...great pics! What I'm looking for is actually in photo #3--the small tiki hanging just left of your wonderful door. I am hoping to find different tikis just like that one that I can just mount to existing cabinets. What do you think? Mahalo! :) |

RevBambooBen are those doors in your house? Can I live in your hallway? What a creative perspective on what a hallway could and should look like! I love it! |
