Artsy Craftsy Tiki

Found this little Tiki Bar sign at my local craft shop on clearance for 99 cents, so I couldn't resist. Kinda hated the parrot, though, so my plan was to improve upon it. I'm pleased with the results and hope that you think it's a bit more worthy of a real tiki bar now.

I even bought a few more, so I can try out some other ideas.
