Hey!
I like the kitchen set idea (but not too matchy-matchy) 
What about a kitchen clock to go with it? Napkin holder? Soap dispenser? Soap dish for sponge holding or bar soap? Ring holder? Lotion dispenser? Sugar/creamer? Is that enough for now?
I know Tiki Farm did one in years past, but a bathroom set would be nice(including a covered extra paper holder to sit on the floor).
I like the bank idea.
I stop now...

I picked up my "Grog Art" spoon rest at the Tonga Hut on Saturday night. I was going to get the matching nut cracker but someone beat me to it. Anyone else get "Grog Art".

Did you get the free Grog hernia truss with that?

Lotsa stuff! Yup, the Farm did do some bathroom stuff but I'm not sure it did so well.
Good kitchen ideas! There is a sugar/creamer set coming out soon with matching coffee cups. Clock would be cool. I think I got soured on clocks when I saw those resin Tiki Time monstrosities at Target so maybe I'll get on that now.
Mrs. Squid uses a large vintage ashtray for sponges and scrubber thingies. Perhaps something like that, fairly deep with compartments.

Can you make one that rotates like a (Sorry Mrs. Squid) "Lazy" Susan?

Hey Ken, A GROG piggy bank would be a "GROGGY BANK". And, if you're putting your cigarettes out on GROG's cheek, wouldn't that be an "Asstray"? (Or were you talking about a different cheek?)

Ok,
so what about a desk set(post it holder, paper clip holder, tape holder, pen/pencil holder--you get the idea...)? Again, not matchy-matchy...
Cell phone holder.
Crackberry holder, uh, I meant Blackberry
Business card holder.
What else can I come up with that needs a holder...
Tabletop picture frames(holder).
That'll HOLD me for a while...HOLD--get it?

How about a line of ceramic Ice Buckets? They're not much different than a cookie jar right? I can see a whole wall unit of them - all different like tiki mugs.
Or how about ceramic wall hangings (ala Witco wallhangings) -- all styles, sizes and colors....
Or along that line --- ceramic TIKIS -- just like a full sized palm tiki. Hey, if you can do them in resin, why not ceramic??? Again, all styles and colors ---

I second the vote for the Business Card Holders. I've just recently been asking some carvers about those, but I bet they'd be cool made in ceramic. It's a great way to add a little bit of tiki-style to an otherwise boring corporate cubicle without annoying the non-tiki people around me.

Squidwerd,
I'll try a round one with a lazy susan soon but here are a few for the time being.
We'll use the Tiki Farm coconut salt and pepper shakers for the time being...
