Making A Tiki Bar Sign!

So I'm a little behind putting this on a my blog but last year I had a really fun time looking into the wild and wonderful world of Tiki's and Tiki Bars. As a wedding gift for some really close friends of mine I created this timber and bamboo Tiki Sign to hang above a great retro bamboo bar I picked up.


It took me quite a few attempts to draw a Tiki Face I was happy with, once I stetched on I was happy with I used my Dremel to carve out a few small pieces of plywood to construct the Tiki Face. With some help from the lovely Emma Jane we built the rest of the sign on a large sheet of plywood covered in green hessian fabric and used some bamboo garden edging to make up the lettering.
