Why am I telling you this other than to brag? hehehe Well I see that there is a great cross section of posters here, some artisans, and travelers that may have some insight suggestions and other tid bits of all things Tiki to see and aquire in this region. One of the things I plan on doing is having some articles made up whist in Bali (and maybe in the PI) as I will be meeting up with my folk there who are going to be sending back a container load of stone carvings (so I can piggy back some of the stuff with theirs). I have some ideas and am even thinking of having some cool tiki bars and other goodies that I will design to be made up to sell on ebay. Any positive input would be greatly appreciated!
