LOVE the sign! Nicely done.
How'd you make the coconut cups? Hollow out the coconuts then attach the cut off top part to the bottom? Was it hard? They came out great, sorry if my question is a dumb one.

Hi Lori. Pleased with the sign, turned out better than expected.
The coconut cups were cut like you mentioned and finished with varnish. The husk was sanded off with medium grit sandpaper to leave a smooth finish.
Thanks for getting in touch!

I entered my Tiki Bar into 'Shed Of The Year' which was televised on UK TV on Thursday this week (Pub Shed Category). Out of 350 Pub Shed entrants, my shed was a finalist alongside 3 others. Programme: 'George Clarke's Amazing Spaces', Channel 4. Follow the link and watch from 30.50. A great experience & really good fun.
