Tools and Hardware Reviews of Tiki Head Tissue Box Cover - Green Face with Black Sides
Customer Review: A+ on Creativity!
Summary: 5 Stars
I was actually just looking up tissue boxes, not tissue box covers when I came across this. The cover fits over a standard size tissue box and is held in place using an elastic strap in the back. It does look better when its standing up on its side, that way everyone can see the face on the box. However to do so you have to somehow fix it in place so that it doesn't fall - its top heavy and will topple over as soon as you try to take a tissue out. I took it to work and it sparked a lot of smiles and laughs. I fixed it in place actually using a bent paper clip. I hooked the paper clip through one of the side handles on the box then hooked the other side of the paper clip to a joint in my cubicle wall where two walls connect. To hide all of this I used fake leaves and now my box looks like its growing leaves out of its head too!
Head's up: If you do buy this, make sure that when you start using it to pull the tissues out at an angle. The way the nose is shaped, its better to pull the tissues down - with a new box of tissues, the first few always come out torn in half.
Customer Review: Be upstanding
Summary: 4 Stars
My solution to the problem of placing the box upright:
1) Get a plain old stamped metal bookend (basically a piece of thin steel bent at a right angle, causing a kind of "tongue" to extend on one side). Mine is about 4.5" wide and 4.5" high.
2) Place tongue piece between bottom of tissue box and inside bottom of Tiki holder.
3) Set upright. Stand back. Admire.
4. For greater stability, place a can on the part of the bookend that extends out from behind the holder. I'm using Steen's Sugar Syrup, but I imagine canned spinach will work as well. Exercise your creatvity.

I visited my sister last year and she had one of these in her home. I had to have them so I came home and researched them and found it on Amazon!! I ordered several and have given them for gifts. They're a real hit.Customer Review: Color not right
Summary: 1 Stars
This item came from Target and was more bright mossy green than brown. I sent it back as defective (stating that some of the foam had been missing from his nose, which is also true) and got a full refund, including shipping. There may be other companies that produce a higher quality version of this item.Customer Review: Conversation Starter
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a fantastic conversation starter. I saw it at my dentist's office; googled it in the waiting room and ordered one for home; one for the office. It has not failed in its use as a tissue box, nor as something that makes everyone smile!
