Tiki help needed!!!

Hi everyone... I just joind the site...i just bought an outdoor bar, nothing fancy just a small standard bar. Im planning a party in a few weeks and I want to go for the tiki theme...I want to have a good decorations but I dont want to run into a huge expensive bill... I was thinking of some ideas in turning the bar into a tiki type bar..I found these tiki god candles that would go great but i want some more...I would like a tiki mask on the front of it but i would like to make one..Im not a good wood carver but i work well with foam, can i use that and sprayseal it and paint it???? I was also thinking of putting up a bamboo type roof maybe...Another thought was to make a large tiki idol out of foam and hollow out its mouth then put it in front of my outdoor fireplace...Can anybody give me some feed back and some tips...anything will help....Thanx
