Hi all...Newbie here. I recently found this site and am thrilled to be here. I've been a closet Tiki fan since I was a little girl sneaking out of bed to watch Hawaii 5-0 in the hallway without my parents knowing (for some reason, the show came on at 10:30 pm, way past my bedtime :o). My first effort at creating a Tiki world was when I was a teenager, and I hung one of those Pier One nets in the corner of my bedroom with a bunch of Tiki-ish stuff tossed into it. Of course, I had an incense burner and a bamboo curtain, too. :) My Tiki addiction went underground for many years, but has finally reemerged. My current goal is to convert our back porch into a full-fledged Tiki bar like some of the great examples I've seen here. You'd think any man would be thrilled his wife wanted to do such a project, but I'm dragging my husband kicking and screaming into accepting that this would be a really cool idea, LOL. I'll mostly be lurking, but look forward to getting lots of great ideas from y'all. And when we finally start the project, I will be sure to post pics. Thanks!
