    Kilt Pin - Tiki

    My daughter Julia works at a pet store.
    We found an interesting plastic resin small decoration for an aquarium.
    I removed the base and some excess material.
    Then refinished with silver Rub-N-Buff.
    Attached a pin back.

    For my support (as often as possible) of Clan Tiki-Bar. Or is it Clam Tiki-Bar?
    And for the Hawaiian Tartan kilt on my wish list.
    (The stand-in background tartan is Celtic Croft’s Homespun in Scott Hunting [Brown] Modern.)

    Now that is cool.
    A great idea and pulled off very well.

    That sure is a different kilt pin. It would go good with the hawaiian print kilt pleated to stripe.....

    I hope that's not the Evil Tiki god from that Brady Bunch episode!

    That's not a "Tiki" it is a "Moai" from Rapa Nui or Isle de Pascua (Easter Island). A great movie of the same name Rapa Nui if you haven't seen it. I used to work there.
    Cowards die many times before their deaths; the valiant never taste of death but once. Of all the wonders I yet have heard, it seems to me most strange that men should fear; seeing that death, a necessary end, will come when it will come. --William Shakespeare, Julius Caesar
