So I was thinking a few days ago how tiki has all these facets to it. I find that since I like tiki, that I pretty much like all the different parts that build the tiki passion. But I would think that some (or most)people focus on a particular area. For me it would probably be the mugs. But over the time I really want it all. To give the mugs their proper setting lighting needs to be introduced. And what is a mug without the recommended booze that fills them up. And while the sights of the mugs and lights and the taste and smell of the drinks play out why not fill all the senses with the sounds of some records.

So I have spent thousands on tiki and wanted to see on a limited budget what is the most important to you. At the heart of it all. And which concise item or items help to define tiki for you.

When I went to my first tiki event (local) I bought a lot of great items that was like a starter kit of tiki for me.

I bought a couple inexpensive mugs $10 X 2
they are like small tiki carvings to bring
hand held tikiness with you to gathering.

a $10 Shag calender for instant wall artwork

a $7 drink to enjoy the event more and taste the
tastes.

And at the time, I got a $20 soft cover BOT to
learn the history and see the distance sights.
