Coastal Living
The March issue of Coastal Living has a bunch of articles and pictures and resources on decorating your home tiki-style. I especially loved the canopy bed - the canopy was a bunch of hula skirts!

Yeah, you can get it at Kroger, BR. I've been subscribed for about 4 or 5 years.
Thing is, that house wasn't anything *like* Tiki-style. It had a little Tiki kitsch in it, but it definitely was not "Tiki-style." Some grass skirts around a bed canopy, puffer fish lights, hula nodder (probably brought in by the photographer), barkcloth and a tiki mug don't make a "Tiki-style" home.
There wasn't even a Tiki carving anywhere to be seen. The bar in the short "how to decorate" article was pretty kewl though.
It is *still* a beautiful house with some Hawaiiana in it. I really like the barkcloth pillows and the black floors/white walls are gorgeous.
