Five days to go and only 4 days to get my puffer lamps and glass floats all done. I finished cutting the holes and taking the stuffing out of the puffers. Waiting for the mail to deliver my lamp kits. I will only have 6 reproduction glass float lamps on Saturday.

Here's a couple of velvet paintings I've decided to part with.
The nude wahine is by Bill Erwin and the ukulele boy is by Lavisse.
Both pieces are beautiful and would look great in the tiki room.
Don't miss out!






Please send me a pm if you have any questions or would like to make a purchase before Saturday.
Thanks for looking and hope to see you Saturday!

What: International TIKI Market Place
Who: Over 40 Tiki Vendors, Live Entertainment & MORE!!!
When: Saturday, September 7, 2013 from 11am to 4pm
Where: Don the Beachcomber, Hidden Village and High Chief's Room
Cost: FREE! You pay $10 admission and get $10 voucher for food and/or drinks!!! This is a Family Friendly Event. Kids Under 12 are Free
Why: In line with Donn Beach and his founding the International Market Place in Hawaii in 1956, we bring the International Tiki Market Place to Don the Beachcomber.

I want to thank you all in advance for sharing our vision of bringing the spirit of the International Market Place (founded by Donn Beach in 1956) and the spirit of TIKI which we all share thanks to Don the Beachcomber! Mahalo! Mahalo! Mahalo!-SoccerTiki, Promoter

“Don the Beachcomber admires very much the work that members of our community have put into the development of such events as the amazing Tiki Oasis, The Hukilau, and other big ticket gatherings of our clan across the United States. Through that work a very positive effect has been felt in the growth and expansion of Tiki in America. DTB supports each of them, both financially and emotionally.

However, we believe that Tiki would additionally benefit from the development of smaller projects, that do not demand long trips, reduce costs to the participants simply by holding the costs to those who stage them to a minimum, making access possible to vendors who otherwise would not be able to afford it.”
Art Snyder, Owner, Don the Beachcomber

And a very BIG MAHALO to our sponsor:

Here is the current list of Vendors for the 9-7 ITMP:

Atomic Tiki Punk & Jungle Ginger, Bamboo Ben, Baypark Buzzy, Crazy Al, Dirk Yates, Don the Beachcomber, Doug Horne, Fancy Fruit Jewelry, Focetiki, Eric October, GoTiki, Comet Clutches, HB Tiki, Hottiki, Hula Girl Shave Ice, Humble Poi, Johnny Velour, Kingfish Vintage Stuff, Krisdrama, Ms. Formaldehyde , Nelson’s Tiki Hut, Picture Show Gallery, Retro Ruthie, Schmaltz Family, Skootiki, Smokin Tikis, Taboo Island, The Pod King, Tiki Al, Tiki Broker, Tiki Diablo, Tiki Magazine, Tiki Pops, Tiki Roots Rocka, Tiki Tony, Tiki Shaker, Tiki Vato, Tom Hofer, Trader Pup & More!!!

It's gonna be a great day of Friends, Fun and Shopping....WooHoo!

Aloha, Tiki Ohana! It's Kari Hendler. I will be vending at this fabulous event tomorrow, accompanied by the perpetually-effervescent Matt Rios! We will be selling the latest issue of Tiki Magazine and what's left of the magazine's signature pendant and poster.

You say you already have a copy of the most recent Tiki Magazine? Congratulations! However, eventually, you are probably going to wish you had another one... or two. Have you seen the prices that sold-out issues of Tiki Magazine bring on Ebay? This issue is the last of the original Tiki Magazine run, so it's going to sell out and be highly collectible, as will the pendants. And the poster? It's only two dollars! TWO DOLLARS!!! You can't even get a cup of coffee for two dollars, and here we are offering you a wonderful poster that you will enjoy for years, featuring almost all of the covers of the past nine years of Tiki Magazine. You must have this. You must have this. You must have this. Two dollars. Two dollars. Two dollars.

Also, Matt and I will be bringing a few of our own personal items to sell. No, not those. TIKI things. You'll like them. You'll want to buy them, too.

So come by and say aloha. We'll be slumming next to Doug Horne's spot, so it's bound to be a non-stop, disco-inferno party in our area. I hope to see you!

What a Tikiriffic time yesterday! Matt Rios, his beautiful girlfriend, Erika, and I sold and smiled all day. So many wonderful ohana to chat with! We only have three Tiki Magazine signature pendants left and a few posters and latest magazine issue! We felt the love, big time! And the "after-party roundup" in the Dagger Bar was made especially memorable by Edwin Letcher's karaoke singing and the mysterious guy who bought a round for the entire bar. I KNOW! I thought that stuff only happened in movies! Apparently it also happens at the International Tiki Marketplace! See you in October!

I can't believe I missed a free round for the bar. That might just make karaoke tolerable, or not.

Sounds like a fun time! I think I can make the next one. See everyone there!
