My house is filled with cheesy crap; my whiskey barrel furniture set, lentograph collection, crazy bar wear, funky lamp collection, etc. Some may even call our tiki collections cheesy. Consult your Encyclopedia of Bad Taste book for reference. We've all seen the peeing boy decanters and tacky velvet paintings but here's some of my favorite finds you may haven't seen before. My favorite mug (not tiki) It makes me laugh to read words like "warts, boils, toe itch & B.O." nudie radio with nipple dials grandma plate, is it the gold trim, I like? the pretty flowers? no, it's the message... my favorite thing- the jar of pickled pantyhose butts you guys needed this ugly monkey bartender at Tiki Oasis to deal with all the booze and party moochers, his sign says "No Credit" Share away....
