I've been collecting a variety of Tiki, tropical and Hawaiiana for a while and was recently turned on to your BB here by a fellow tikiphile. I guess it started for me when I was just a tiny girl listening to Mom and Dad's Martin Denny records in the early 60's and eating off Homeward House "Carribean" dinnerware. Between that and my grandmother's ultra hip Danish Modern furniture and barkcloth draperies my earliest fond memories are very mid-century modern, bird calls and drums, and the fabulous Tiki Room at Disneyland. Since I grew up in Orange County, CA, so grew a fondness for bitchen surf music and all the great nuevo-Polynesian architecture that was everywhere around here, from apartment buildings to restaurants and everything in between. So I'm in the process of re-inventing my home into a 40's inspired tropical surf shack. Too fun and way cool! Looking forward to getting to know you. Kiki von Tiki
