Dang, I missed Ami?! Now I gotta wait almost 2 weeks until I get to party with her.

A HUGE mahalo to all who attended and participated in our Parking Lot sale, ensuring it to be the biggest and best one yet!! The selection of goods was mind-blowing, as was the entertainment. Thanks too, to my awesome staff, who effortlessly quenched the thirst of the masses, without even breaking a sweat! Alooooha!

pics soon...

Here are some pics of the sale yesterday. Our booth was pretty congested all day (hooray!) so didn't get pics of all the vendors because we were so busy- but you may recognize a few of these fab folks :

Psycho Tiki D & I's crammed to capacity (and then some) booth:


yeah we had TONS of stuff!



Tobunga(Eric October)'s Booth--Manuel came as well - always great to see them and I was stoked I scored the black paper Tiki Bob drawing he did. Sometimes it pays to be able to shop while setting up the booth!

Jungle Trader in his booth - he sold some of his huge carvings which helped him buy from me so thank you to those people who now own Jungle Trader originals!

Tiki Kaimuki was actually making a piece while he vended:

Lake Surfer & his lovely wife--so glad I grabbed up one of his Tiki Bob carvings...and I am sure they were loving the hot weather we had!

Tiki Kaimuki and MP being..themselves

MP's booth of Happy Bastard art

Psycho Tiki D and TikiHammer=it was a long but fabulous day!

Thanks to Forbidden Island and all the vendors. We came up from Southern California and scored some cool items before heading into the bar for cocktails. Great, great time.

A few pictures of the event and the items we picked up are below. Not pictured are some nifty prints we bought from Taboo Island and a very cool Tonga Hut print from Eric October (they're being put into frames and hung).

Mahalo,

kevin
