yeah it's been awhile since I posted on this thread, a now for the goodies I've got :)

First off: Swizzle sticks ($1.00) from an estate sale. Some from Trader Vics, Kahala Hilton, Hale Koa hotel, The Playboy, and more plus weird riffles.

Next: Two Tiki candles, $2.00 each (i think they are resin or plastic with a candle insert) and an empty bottle of Pisco shaped like a Moai $5.00. Also estate sale finds.

Then: The "wee-ones". A CoCo Joes lava hula gal $2.00, Three Ports o'Call salt shakers (I couldn't leave the third wheel alone could I?)$5 each but on sale so I got all three for $5.95 and an unknown tiki (I got for a few cents at a thrift store) that might be a salt shaker or a toothpick holder. He only has one small hole in the top and a hole and a hole without a plug on the bottom. He reads "Hawaiian War Gods copywrite 1967. Zenith (unreadable) Hanaki HI and a code (A67 5 Japan)??"

Also: Sharks teeth a couple cents at a local thrift store, a bottle of sand from Galveston (because I used to vacation there) a few cents more, and a beautiful pineapple ash tray from Treasure Craft, also a few cents.

And Finnaly: Two beautiful cobalt blue mugs and volcano bowl IT"S FREEKIN' HUGE! from oriental trader $8 for the three (and VERY well packaged i might add)

And those are my finds... if anyone has any infor on some of those rare items please speak up!
