Default Tikis
Hello everyone. Well, I decided to take a break from carving bears and do something different. These tikis are pretty basic and easy to carve which made them fun to do. The tallest one is 9". The smallest one is 3 1/4". They are carved from butternut and are finished with Minwax stain. The two larger ones have a top coat of Krylon matte acrylic. The medium tiki has a top coat of Minwax satin poly. I wanted to do some experimenting with different finishes. Just thought I would share.

Nice job on all 3, Firecracker.....I am partial to the tall one, however. I love the way that one came out with the miniwax stain, but all 3 have their individual appeal. Bonnie
