This is simply fantastic! The stuff dreams are made of, for sure. Your collection is amazing, and is matched in quality and quantity by the sheer skill and creativity with which it has been displayed. I envy your talent and craftsmanship.

I love the way you display your swizzle stick collection. If you look at Picture No. 32 in the photos of my Tiki Lounge at http://www.flickr.com/photos/drzarkov/ you will see a small round table in the bar area next to the rattan chair with a model of an outrigger canoe sitting on top of it. Although you can't tell from the photo, it has a glass top over compartments where my swizzle sticks, matchbooks and plastic drink animal ornaments are displayed.

I have one question: Where did you obtain the carved wooden frames for displaying LP records? If you look at Photo No. 11 in my Flickr collection, you will see that I hung some LPs on the wall, too, but the only frames I could find at local craft stores were simple black metal ones.
