CAP CITY TIKI CRAWL October 11/12/13 For those of you who are new to the Sacramento Crawl here is our history and some helpful hints for participating. This will be our 8th year of celebrating Tikiphiles in Sacramento. The majority of our crawls have been organized by Duane (Psycho Tiki D) whose passion for Tiki has driven all of us to be better collectors and open our homes to share with our friends. Over the years we have seen some fabulous collections, experienced great entertainment, listened to awesome bands, and secured event mugs. But more than anything, we have built life-long friendships and learned more about our love of Tiki. This year we are again having the South of Sacramento (SOS) events on Friday. We have another Friday change so we will go to Minnies earlier for our lunch stop http://minnies.58-s.com/ and adding another home bar stop after that. Saturday, we will meet for brunch at http://www.towercafe.com/ then a visit at http://www.swanbergsformen.com/ and then more homes. On Sunday, more homes and then http://www.mahalotiki.com/ will be hosting a BBQ & Car Show for the last stop on our crawl. Wendy & Dan are providing our fabulous crawl mug. Kudos to all our hosts for this year...we have some new, exciting homes to tour. Please RSVP in this thread if you are attending and I will track the Crawlers here. Wendy is tracking mugs on this page as well. PM me with your email address if you need the Crawl addresses. CRAWLERS I know there are more...please post your name as a crawler so I can add to our list. This helps us do the high math calculations related to eatin' & drinkin'.

2013 Sacramento Crawl Mug is based on this tiki from the Coral Reef. List will be updated here and on page 1 of my "other crafts" page.
I put the step by steps of making this mug on my other crafts page. I'll have a price after I've actually made one which will be this summer. The list above gives me an idea of how many I need to make. It's OK to drop off if you change your mind.

I've put you both on the list for two mugs each. I don't have a price until I have one made. My crawl mugs have run from $50 to $80 each. This is the biggest tiki I've ever made. Here's a peek that hasn't been put on my "other crafts" thread yet. Wendy |

For the Tiki? The sculpt is NOT finished. I took these photos to check for errors so far and found the nose needed an adjustment. The sculpt has to be mold friendly so it will not match the wooden tiki perfectly but it will be close. Cheers, Wendy Yep it is BIG! |

Sacramento Crawl mug. This is how it turned out after the marathon day of carving and adjusting. I'm really happy with how I've copied the original. Next up will be the lettering. Cheers, Wendy |

Gottcha! Wendy Drying in the shed. They start out at 12.5 inches and 3 3/4 pounds. I'll put a final up when one has dried out completely. You can see how the first 6 are shorter than the latest two because of drying. I big mug for a big event. Thank you Marlene aka VampiressRN for all the work you have done. Last year could only have been better if you could have been at every stop. Hugs, Wendy [ Edited by: danlovestikis 2013-05-27 08:54 ] [ Edited by: danlovestikis 2013-05-27 08:54 ] |
