Custom Male & Female Tikis
I recently carved these tiki surfers for couple in North Carolina. I had carved them tiki bar stools previously for the husband, so when I got an email from the wife asking me to carve some full-size tikis for their 20th anniversary, I was glad to be in on the surprise. I secured some pine logs that had been in a kiln for the proper amount of time, and set out to design a female and male tiki with a surfboard that announced their 20th anniversary. The custom tikis were carved to specs, stained with a mix of medium and dark stains for contrast, then coated with 4 coats of marine-grade spar urethane since these would adorn an outside pool area in North Carolina. You can make your anniversary special too with a custom, 5-foot tall tiki from BELLY UP PUB HUB!

For "Harry" sign5.0What a great pleasure to work with Joel from Belly Up Pub Hub. He worked with me to fine tune a custom made sign. His communication was timely and he was able to make my vision to perfection with just a couple emails. He even got it done and shipped in time for a Christmas present. I would highly recommend him and would certainly use him again in the future. Thank you!
