So much good stuff. Picked up these salt and pepper shakers from Kings Island, Moai, Amway Tonga Soap and a carved Marquesan style tiki that on the back said it was carved by Rene Pailloux in Tahiti for the Tahitian Lanai. And got a large framed Art forms of the Pacific by Miguel Covarrubias. I really need a big piece to tie my tiki room together and this is perfect! And of course books to add to the Bibliotiki. Tiare~ What a bunch of great finds! SO jealous of those of you who have such things as 'tiki yard sales' available to them! Could you possibly post a closeup of the piece that was carved for the Tahitian Lanai? Thank you. ~kele

Seemed like every garage sale we stepped into had something tiki! Also a few non-tiki mid-century pieces in the shot, these are for elsewhere in the house. But the whole day worked like magic. For instance: we found a bare Japanese float at one stop, and then a vintage spool of jute from the Orient at the next!

Pair of Polyarts in Hapawood and some matchbooks I felt real lazy this weekend so I didn't do much hunting.

Kinda both...I display everything I keep, until I decide to sell it. Then usually once a year before Tiki Oasis, I walk through my house and start grabbing stuff I don't want anymore and sell it. It was a good year for collecting this year, not so good for resale. I probably kept over 70% of what I bought this year. Usually I keep about 10% of what I find each year. Buzzy Out!
