decorating resources

Hi,
After seeing all the wonderful rooms and bars was wondering if people had favorite sources for their decorating supplies. (or maybe just move/link to the previous posts that have this info?) I did a search but they seem to be scattered all over the place.
Thanks!

Oceanic arts is the first place i would look, or get a catalog from, bosko's has some stuff, you can find some decrative items on ebay.

Have you checked out http://www.Konakai.com? Hanford has a link under the Google search button. Lots of goodies to look at.

I checked out OA's site but they don't have anything on it! I'm not close enough to stop into the shop.
Went to Bosko's the other day. I love the video clip he has on it.
Thanks!

With the exception of Exotic Hardwoods purchased at my local retailer, the majority of the decor for my lounge came from the following 3 vendors. I think that all of them ship so locality should not be an issue,

Franks Cane and Rush- For bamboo, Lauhala, wicker, Cane etc.

Bensons Imports- For bamboo, Lamp Making Supplies, Tapa Cloth, Aquatic Decor, Plastic Tiki Masks, Poles, Birds etc.
http://www.bensonsimport.com

Oceanic Arts- The super authentic stuff, lots of carvings, lamps bamboo, matting.

I have to agree with Monkey Man, Frank's is awesome for bamboo.

If you want some live bamboo check out;

Thanks! I had already discovered Franks and downloaded the catalog.
