Palm fronds - Other Crafts

They’re sorta frail so I have to figure out how to easily attach and remove them during strong windstorms. They’ll be mounted about 10’ overhead, illuminated with low wattage garden floodlights-should look pretty dramatic at night. This one is almost done. Not started. Various stages of completion. All will be given a “clearcoat” sealer. Hope they last a couple of years. The tiki in the last pic was purchased at Don;s (itmp) from Jason (SmokingTikis). I have lots of stuff jammed together right now-trying to keep it out of the sun and rain. Comments welcome. Cheers [ Edited by: nui 'umi 'umi 2014-01-08 09:54 ]
