Target Tiki Wanted, Please Help, Desperate - Tiki Marketplace

Although it is probably clearanced out for the season, they had some tiki stuff earlier in the summer. (Probably long gone by now, but worth a look.) That Tascanos stuff is generally pretty expensive for what it is. If a young person has freshly found tiki as an interest, make it worth their while and get them something carved by a local artist. Something more unique and original. It's a wonderful hobby, and a healthy fetish...although it can become addictive, as any other interest. But I think it should be encouraged. I would think that a carved piece of art would be more cherished than a mass produced plastic idol. (For just a little more money). Good luck! [ Edited by: the75stingray 2007-11-02 12:14 ]
