I have been collecting all things tiki for quite a while. Grew out of my love for the mid-century modern aesthetic, and my involvement in the traditional hotrod scene. Seems like the collection has really accelerated the last couple of years. Started venturing out, and traveling to some tiki bars in other cities and other parts of the country. I’m more well known for my margaritas, but I do enjoy other people’s rum concoctions.
 
Great to have you here! Do you collect mugs? That took off like crazy. I have to admit I enjoy seeing anything Tiki from napkins to swizzles to mugs, it's all good!
 
Welcome! Good to have another Tiki fan here!

Hey @Kahikina Thanks for the welcome in. I enjoy the tiki mugs most of all, but I am a fan of all things tiki. I have a grouping of tiki figures and masks, some contemporary artwork, Hawaiian shirts, Martin Denny exotika album covers, rum bottles, and (believe it or not) some tiki themed slot machine back glass pieces. My biggest struggle is trying to mix in new pieces, while staying focused on the tiki aesthetic. I want to avoid collection drift, and avoid mixing in pieces from pirates, African safaris, Native American and totem poles. The problem is, I like those things too! Focus. Focus.
