			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.vintageantiquecollectible.com/historian/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/tikidecor.jpg" alt="tikidecor" title="tikidecor" width="180" height="240" class="left" />There are a wide variety of relics and <a href="http://www.vintageantiquecollectible.com/collectables/Collectibles/Decorative-Collectibles">Hawaiian décor pieces</a> that hail from the tiki craze, which happened between the 1940s and the 1960s. Collectors seem to get enjoyment from the over the time and often kitschy nature of these items. These items are often purchased, collected and then used to decorate the home or the bedroom.</p>
<p>One of the most popular Hawaiian décor collectibles is the tiki mug. There are actually a number of books that have been written only about collecting tiki mugs. Tiki mugs are one of the most easily recognizable features of the retro tiki and Hawaiian culture, and they were especially popular when used in Hawaiian themed restaurants and bars all over the country. These items are still readily available in thrift stores, antique shops and similar locations for this very reason. Because they are so very popular, you can also still purchase tiki mugs brand new, especially when it comes to souvenir shops and other items selling kitschy décor items.</p>
<p>Tiki mugs are typically made from ceramic materials, and they most commonly feature colors that are warm and tropical in nature. They come in a great variety of different styles and designs. They are great to keep on display, but they can also be purchased and used for serving tropical drinks in your home bar, as this is how they were meant to be used in the first place. Functional collections are always a good way to get the most out of your memorabilia collection.</p>
<p>There are a number of other unique Hawaiian décor collectibles that you can add to your home collection including drink stirrers, bar menus, coasters and plenty of other relics that hail from tiki bars like Don the Beachcomber and Trader Vic&#8217;s. These places used to be found in every city all over the United States but now they are difficult to find which makes the items that come from these locations even more popular and fun to collect. Items from these establishments, including ash trays, menus, signs and other memorabilia have become hot commodities among people that enjoyed them during their heyday. Today, some of the most sought after Hawaiian décor collectibles are items that come from famous Tiki restaurant and bar destinations. </p>
<p>If you decide to look hard enough, you can find many different tiki themed Hawaiian décor items that you can collect as memorabilia in your home. This is especially true in terms of advertising, such as calendars, matchbooks and other similar ephemera, so these pieces remain especially popular among today&#8217;s modern day Hawaiian décor memorabilia collectors. If you are looking for tropical memorabilia then you may want to collect Hawaiian themed postcards, posters, advertisements, signs and other décor items to give your home a truly Hawaiian themed appearance. Collecting Hawaiian décor as a memorabilia collection is easy, generally inexpensive and can be really beneficial when you give your home a unique look as a result of the décor that you have collected. </p>
