Long days are back and it feels like Tiki season has arrived (but did it ever leave?). Mahalo everyone for a great day at the Marketplace!
Not pictured: The cool Hanalei Hotel sign I picked up.

It just gets better and better for the vendors and the guests. Great job Chris and Karen. Thanks to all the guests that that purchased my puffer fish in my new sizes (11" and 15")I sold out of those sizes.

Chris also did a nice job on a video clip of the event that he posted on utube, you can take a look at :

What another great event. Thanks to all the vendors, attendees, the staff and everyone at Don's and especially to Soccer Tiki and Woo Hoo Wahine for putting on this great event. Thanks to everyone who came by to visit me at HB Tiki's booth. Also a big thanks to Tiki Diablo and Tiki Tony. Great pictures. I cannot wait until the next one.
And a big shout out to The Ding Dong Devils. What a great way to end the evening.

Thanks to Chris for putting this event on again! It is always a blast! And a big thank you to those who came by and said nice stuff about my signs and carvings. It was really humbling. It certainly drives me to create more midcentury tiki-modern signage!
Thanks again, friends!

Another great ITMP. Thanks to Chris & the DTB staff for a job well done. Thanks to those of you who stop by & had words of encouragement for my lamp designs & router carvings. It really means a lot to a new guy. Thank you to those that bought lamps.

Spike, the Kissing Booth wasn't the same without Dinah there. You still did pretty good though. GROG would've preferred without tongue, though.

Its really quite the scene isn't it! Thank you Chris and Karen for having me. I really appriciate it. I was busy non stop signing stuff and barely got to circulate the room. So I'm sure I missed out on seeing some old friends and meeting some new ones. Didnt get the chance to actually vend what I brought with me but was able to connect with peple who will probably be future patrons.
Lovely to see you all, wish there was more time for visiting. Maybe someday I can come back and just be a regular vendor.

OOOHHHHH all the tiki goodness makes me swoon!
I'm so going to have to plan a major road trip! I swear. Thanks for posting the pictures everyone!!!!!! So nice! Everything looks great. What a talented bunch you are!
I'd probably pass out from all the excitement. (You Californians won't understand, you are used to all this tiki wonderfulness!)
