La Habra 5.3 Earthquake - General Tiki

The suggestions of wire or fishing line triggered a thought. Nautical style decor is not discordant with tiki decor. I've noticed that the shelves and cabinets in boats - especially seaworthy sailboats - are cleverly designed so that objects are easy to access, but are protected from falling due to shifting seas. It seems the same type of designs could be used to display your mugs, and protect them from shifting and shaking land, too. Mimicking the boat designs might achieve the practical goal, without sacrificing style.
