One of my favorite posts ever was fatuhiva's Wall of Tiki. I've always wanted to create one of my own. After having all of my mugs boxed up for three months while my house is being rebuilt, I finally had the time and the space to free some of them.
Here's my Wall of Tiki Farm.
I grouped most of them by artist
and by location.
I had a great time putting this together, and there's plenty of room to squeeze in more mugs.

Nice way to display your collection. What is the one on the far left case, second shelf, and the far left on the shelf? It's gray in color. Thanks in advance for the info.

That is just awesome. What a stunning look that has. Colors,designs, history and good times. I like the black shelves, it really makes the mugs jump out.

Here is a picture of my Wall and table with duplicates and mugs that don't fit on my shelves. My collection got bigger than I originally expected, so now my shelves extend over my bed. I hope there's not an earthquake when I'm sleeping (but I have quakeputty on em all so hopefully they won't fall).

Yep. It's Martin. It is sold out, but I picked this one up just a few weeks ago. My first Martin lost his nose. He actually ended up inside the car that drove through my house. The firemen rescued him.
Trevor and Maku, love your walls. Thanks for sharing them.
Ben, Loki and Brook, glad you like it. I haven't done anything tiki related in several weeks. Good cure for the withdrawal.
There are currently 104 items on the wall. All of my Shag Tiki Farm mugs are in other rooms and are firmly attached to their shelves.
Can't wait till the house is done, so I can start on the vintage wall.

very cool
I had limited space for my collection, and decided I couldn't house new mugs- so your wall of tikfarm is a nice complement to the 'wall of tiki' shots mentioned above.
There's getting to be alot of new mugs going around out there- alot of them out of production- and many of them very nice.. Sven's KonID mugs I couldnt resist and had to buy.
An all-encompassing collection would need alot of room!

Beautiful display. Thanks for posting the pics. You've built up quite a mug museum!

It's been a little over a year since I put up the Wall of Tiki Farm. Holden's been so wonderful to me, so I thought I'd redo the wall. It really shows how prolific the company was in 2006. Here's to another great year at The Farm.
