Tiki Finds - Collecting Tiki

I found it on Craigslist. It includes the bowl, ladle, 12 cups, and a lazy Susan. The lazy Susan is slightly warped, so we're going to try wetting the wood and weighting it down. The lamp isn't exactly tiki, but fits in great with the theme. I found it at a local vintage store. As for the coconut monkey, someone posted a couple days ago asking if anyone else collects these. I don't really collect them, but I couldn't resist this one -- it looks to me like the ancient aliens at the beginning of Fifth Element. :D
