• Tiki Daze is HERE!

    The only calendar you would ever want to hang in your Tiki Bar is here. Get one for your office to take you away every time you look at it!

    I went around the country photographing incredible collections of mugs and, well, all sorts of stuff. I took photographs at Oceanic Arts and the Mai Kai and my own Hapa Haole Hideaway. Then we turned the images over to some talented graphic designers and the result is Tiki Daze.

    You must have it!
