I mentioned in the declining Tiki thread that I was bit embarrassed to post photos of our kitchen in our rental four-plex, since it's less of a Tiki theme and more of a "place we put our Tiki stuff". But hey, I might as well take the plunge, for the sake of board content :wink: Please excuse the white walls and popcorn ceiling. There's some things we just have to live with.

The overall view, looking away from the messy counter. The two canvas prints show off my 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea Disney pin collection...

Our fish, Tangaroa...

Our main inspirations are Disneyland and mermaids, since that's pretty well where our love of Tiki originated...

The hippo cookie jar was picked up as a throwback to the Jungle Cruise, and the Dole Whip trinket box holds Tangaroa's food. He's as excited about Dole Whips as I am...

Wall o' Shag Disneyland postcards...

There's just enough room above the cabinets to hold our Tiki mug collection (and some plants and nautical ephemera)...

I've been thinking about get a jute rope net to tie around this lamp to make it more like a float, but just haven't gotten around to it yet...

We've kind of maxed out what we're allowed to get away with. No thatch walls or ceiling or anything. The limited mug space helps us keep down our mug collection to something manageable as well. We're also slowly changing out our kitchen utensils for those ones that look like plants.

Anyways, yeah, there we go. Nothing dramatic, but it's ours...
